The engine parts material used in gas turbines (GTs) should be resistant to high-temperature variations. Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) for gas turbine blades are found to have a significant effect on prolonging the life cycle of turbine blades by providing additional heat resistance. This work is to study the performance of TBCs on the high-temperature environment of the turbine blades. It is understood that this coating will increase the lifecycles of blade parts and decrease maintainence and repair costs. Experiments were performed on the gas turbine blade to see the effect of TBCs in different combinations of materials through the air plasma method. Three-layered coatings using materials INCONEL 718 as base coating, NiCoCrAIY as middle coating, and La₂Ce₂O₇ as the top coating was applied. Finite element analysis was performed using a two-dimensional method to optimize the suitable formulation of coatings on the blade. Temperature distributions for different combinations of coatings layers with different materials and thickness were studied. Additionally, three-dimensional thermal stress analysis was performed on the blade with a commercial code. Results on the effect of TBCs shows a significant improvement in thermal resistance compared to the uncoated gas turbine blade.

For mechanical system operating at high temperature, damage due to the interaction effect of creep and fatigue plays an important role. The objective of this paper is to develop a modified creep-fatigue damage model which separately analyzes the pure creep damage for hold time and the creep-fatigue interaction damage during startup and shutdown period. The creep damage was calculated by the general creep damage equation and the creep-fatigue interaction damage was calculated by the modified equation which is based on the frequency modified strain range method with strain rate term. In order to verify the proposed model, a service of high temperature low cycle fatigue tests were performed. The test specimens were made from inconel-718 superalloy and the test parameters were wave shape and hold time. A good agreement between the predicted lives based on the proposed model and experimentally obtained ones was observed.

액체로켓엔진의 핵심부품인 터보펌프는 회전체와 케이싱으로 이루어진 여러 부품의 조립체로서 각종 체결 부분에 매질의 누설방지를 위한 실이 삽입된다. 특히 극저온 환경에서 작동하는 산화제펌프와 고온에서 작동하는 터빈 케이싱에는 안정적인 누설방지를 위하여 금속 실이 사용되는데, 금속 실은 높은 초기 체결력을 요하므로 이를 뒷받침할 수 있는 플랜지 및 체결요소의 적절한 구조 설계가 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 산화제펌프에 사용하는 콘형 실(conical seal) 및 터빈에서 사용하는 금속 평 실(solid metal seal)과 C 실에 대하여 적절한 실 캐비티 및 플랜지 형상을 설계하고, 체결요소의 치수와 수량을 결정하여 건전한 체결 및 운전이 보장될 수 있도록 구조해석을 수행하여 검증하였다.

사용후핵연료를 파이로 건식처리하면 사용후핵연료 자체 내에 존재하는 세슘, 스트론튬, 초우라늄 계열 등이 중간저장 되어 영구처분 방사선원항에서 제외되므로 사용후핵연료집합체를 구성하는 구조재, 즉 금속폐기물의 방사선원항이 중요해지게 된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 $17{\times}17$ KOFA 사용후핵연료 10 톤이 파이로 건식처리 되었을 경우를 가정하여 각 구조재 부품별로 방사선원항 특성을 분석하였다. 우선 구조재 부품별로 질량 및 부피를 상세히 계산하였다. 핵연료 상단 및 하단 고정체에서의 중성자스펙트럼이 노심과 다르므로 각 구조재 부품별로 핵반응단면적라이브러리를 KENO-VI/ORIGEN-S 모듈로 직접 생산하였으며, 이를 적용하여 ORIGEN-S 코드로 방사화 방사선원항을 평가하였다. 평가결과 원자로 방출후 10 년 시점에서의 방사능세기, 붕괴열, 위해지수 값은 각각 $1.40{\times}10^{15}$ Bequerels, 236 Watts, $4.34{\times}10^9m^3$-water 로 나타났으며, 이는 사용후핵연료 자체 값의 0.7 %, 1.1 %, 0.1 %에 해당하는 값이다. 방사능세기, 붕괴열, 위해지수 모든 측면에서는 금속폐기물 전체물량의 1 %만을 차지하는 인코넬 718 그리드판이 가장 중요한 것으로 평가되었으며, 특히 이를 따로 분리하여 관리하면 금속폐기물 전체 방사능세기를 20~45 % 정도, 위해지수를 30~45 % 정도 감소시킬 수 있는 것으로 나타났다. 전체적으로 볼 때, 금속폐기물의 방사능세기 및 위해지수는 처분시스템 설계 시 중요한 인자로 고려되어야 하나, 붕괴열은 그 열량이 작아 중요하지 않은 것으로 나타났다.

The effects of coating parameters were investigated in wear resistance coatings of Diamalloy-406 on Inconel 718 to obtain an optimum coating condition by high velocity oxy-fuel spraying. The coating parameters, the flow rates of source gases (hydrogen and oxygen), the powder feed rate, and the spray distance, were designed by the Taguchi method. The optimal conditions were determined: oxygen flow rate 34 FRM, hydrogen flow rate 57 FRM, powder feed rate 35 g/min, and spray distance 7 inch. Friction coefficients of the coating and the substrate decreased with an increasing sliding surface temperature from $25^{\circ}C$ to $450^{\circ}C$. The friction coefficient of Diamalloy-4006 coating decreased as the sliding surface temperature increased from $0.43{\pm}0.01$ at $25^{\circ}C$ to $0.29{\pm}0.01$ at $450^{\circ}C$. The wear trace and wear depth of the coating were smaller than the substrate at all temperatures tested. The relationship between spray parameters and wear resistance was discussed extensively, based on the measured roughness, hardness, and porosity in each coating.

HVOF thermal spray coating of Co-alloy T800 is progressively replacing the classical hard coatings such as chrome plating because of the very toxic $Cr^{6+}$ ion known as carcinogen causing lung cancer. For the study of the possibility of replacing of chrome plating, the wear properties of HVOF Co-alloy T800 coatings are investigated using the reciprocating sliding tester both at room and at an elevated temperature of $1000^{\circ}F\;(538^{\circ}C)$. The possibility as durability improvement coating is studied for the application to the high speed spindles vulnerable to frictional heat and wear. Wear mechanisms at the reciprocating sliding wear test are studied for the application to the systems similar to the sliding test such as high speed spindles. Wear debris and frictional coefficients of T800 coatings both at room and at an elevated temperature of $1000^{\circ}F\;(538^{\circ}C)$ are drastically reduced compared to those of non-coated surface of parent substrate Inconel 718. This study shows that the coating is recommendable for the durability improvement coatings on the surfaces vulnerable to frictional heat. The sliding surfaces are weared by the mixed mechanisms such as oxidative wear, abrasion by the sliding ball slurry erosion by the mixture of solid particles and small drops of the melts and semi-melts of the attrited particles cavitation by the relative motions among the coating, sliding ball, the melts and semi-melts. and corrosive wear. The oxide particles and the melts and semi-melts play roles as solid and liquid lubricant reducing the wear and friction coefficient.

Micron size Co-alloy(T800) powder was coated on Inconel 718 by HVOF thermal spraying for the studies of the improvement of durability of high speed spindle by using Taguchi program for the parameters of spray distance, flow rates of hydrogen and oxygen and powder feed rate. The optimal coating process was determined by the studies of coating properties such as micro-structure, porosity, surface roughness and micro hardness. Friction and wear behaviors of coatings were investigated by sliding wear test at room temperature and $1000^{\circ}F(538^{\circ}C)$. At both room temperature and $538^{\circ}C$ the sliding wear debris and friction coefficients of the coating were drastically reduced compared with the surface of non-coated parent material. This shows that Co-alloy powder coating is highly recommendable for the durability improvement surface coating of high speed air-bearing spindle. At high temperature wear traces and friction coefficients of both coating and non-coating were drastically reduced compared with those of room temperature since the brittle oxides were formed easily on the surface, and the brittle oxide phases were attrited by the reciprocating sliding wear according to the complicated mixed wear mechanisms These oxide particles, partially melts and the melts play role as lubricant and reduce the wear and friction coefficient. This also shows that Co-alloy powder coating is highly recommendable far the durability improvement surface coating on the surface vulnerable to frictional heat such as high speed spindles.

This paper provides a reference to determine the seal performance of metallic O-rings for a reactor pressure vessel (RPV). A nonlinear elastic-plastic model of an O-ring was constructed by the finite element method to analyze its intrinsic properties. It is also validated by experiments on scaled samples. The effects of the compression ratio, the geometrical parameters of the O-ring, and the structure parameters of the groove on the flange are discussed in detail. The results showed that the numerical analysis of the O-ring agrees well with the experimental data, the compression ratio has an important role in the distribution and magnitude of contact stress, and a suitable gap between the sidewall and groove can improve the sealing capability of the O-ring. After the optimization of the sealing structure, some key parameters of the O-ring (i.e., compression ratio, cross-section diameter, wall thickness, sidewall gap) have been recommended for application in megakilowatt class nuclear power plants. Furthermore, air tightness and thermal cycling tests were performed to verify the rationality of the finite element method and to reliably evaluate the sealing performance of a RPV.
