Thermal-barrier coatings for more efficient gas-turbine engines
Thermal-barrier coatings for more effi cient gas-turbine engines. This issue of MRS Bulletin focuses on thermal-barrier coatings used in gas-turbine engines on metallic parts in the hottest regions, enabling the engines to operate at higher gas temperatures than their predecessors, thereby improving effi ciency and power. The cover shows a cutaway section of a GP7200 jet engine manufactured by Engine Alliance, a joint venture of General Electric and Pratt & Whitney. (Image courtesy of Engine Alliance.) The inset (and background) is a scanning electron micrograph (orientation-dependent color) showing the top surface of a thermalbarrier coating deposited by the electronbeam physical vapor process.
