Investigation of combustion flame spray as in-situ repair technology for thermal barrier coatings

The continuous increase of Turbine Entry Temperature (TET) in aerospace gas-turbines is the main driver for the research effort in the development of coatings for thermal and oxidation protection: i.e. Thermal Barrier Coatings (TBC). The need for TBC is particularly relevant within the combustor ass...
