A model of the transition layer between the shell and the core of a ceramic matrix composite from coal waste and clay has been developed. The chemical, granulometric and mineral compositions of the beneficiation of carbonaceous mudstones and clay were studied. The technological and ceramic properties of raw materials for the samples manufacturing were determined. The method of manufacturing multilayer ceramic samples from coal waste, clay and their mixture is given. The number of transition layers in the contact zone between the clay shell and the core from coal wastes is determined. The deformation and swelling phenomena of model samples from coal wastes, clay, and their mixtures were revealed at the firing temperature of more than 1000 °C. The formation of a reducing ambient in the center of the sample with insufficient air flow is shown. The influence of the carbonaceous particles amount and the ferrous form iron oxide in the coal wastes on the processes of expansion of multilayer samples during firing has been established.

The Core

The purpose of the study is to create a macromodel of interfacial transition layer in ceramic matrix composites. Chemical and mineralogical compositions were investigated by means of X-ray fluorescence analysis and X-ray diffractometry, ceramic and technological properties of raw materials were defined using standard test methods for argillaceous raw materials. Phase composition and structure of ceramic specimens were studied using a complex of modern physico-chemical analysis methods. The layer-by-layer model of shell-core transition in ceramic matrix material was suggested. Boundary conditions for obtaining specimens were defined in terms of number of layers, thickness of such layers and pitch of core-to-shell material ratio. Forced air supply was organized while burning for directed heat and mass transfer inside the specimens. Mineral composition of layers was defined for ceramic specimens with the core of iron ore waste and the shell of clay. The study enabled to determine dependences between qualitative and semi-quantitative variation of new mineral formations content in transitional layers of a composite, which is the evidence of interaction between the core and the shell products while burning a ceramic matrix material.

Combustor Liner

A high-temperature, high-pressure, tube furnace has been used to evaluate the long term stability of different monolithic ceramic and ceramic matrix composite materials in a simulated combustor environment. All of the tests have been run at 150 psia, 1204°C, and 15 percent steam in incremental 500 h runs. The major advantage of this system is the high sample throughput; >20 samples can be exposed in each tube at the same time under similar exposure conditions. Microstructural evaluations of the samples were conducted after each 500 h exposure to characterize the extent of surface damage, to calculate surface recession rates, and to determine degradation mechanisms for the different materials. The validity of this exposure rig for simulating real combustor environments was established by comparing materials exposed in the test rig and combustor liner materials exposed for similar times in an actual gas turbine combustor under commercial operating conditions.

Future gas turbine engines will operate at significantly higher temperatures (∼1800 °C) than current engines (∼1400 °C) for improved efficiency and power density. As a result, the current set of metallic components (titanium-based and nickel-based superalloys) will be replaced with ceramics and ceramic matrix composites (CMCs). These materials can survive the higher operating temperatures of future engines at significant weight savings over the current metallic components, i.e., advanced ceramic components will facilitate more powerful engines. While oxide-based CMCs may not be suitable candidates for hot-section components, they may be suitable for structural and/or exhaust components. However, a more thorough understanding of the performance under relevant environment of these materials is needed. To this end, this work investigates the high-temperature durability of a family of oxide–oxide CMCs (Ox–Ox CMCs) under an engine-relevant environment. Flat Ox–Ox CMC panels were cyclically exposed to temperatures up to 1150 °C, within 240 m/s (∼0.3 M) gas flows and hot sand impingement. Front and backside surface temperatures were monitored by a single-wavelength (SW) pyrometer and thermocouple, respectively. In addition, an infrared (IR) camera was used to evaluate the damage evolution of the samples during testing. Flash thermography nondestructive evaluation (NDE) was used to elucidate defects present before and after thermal exposure.

Smeared Crack

Microstructural fracture behavior of a ceramic matrix composite (CMC) with nonuniformly distributed fibers is studied in the presentation. A comprehensive numerical analysis package to study the effect of nonuniform fiber dimensions and locations on the microstructural fracture behavior is developed. The package starts with an optimization algorithm for generating representative volume element (RVE) models that are statistically equivalent to experimental measurements. Experimentally measured statistical data are used as constraints while the optimization algorithm is running. Virtual springs are utilized between any adjacent fibers to nonuniformly distribute the coated fibers in the RVE model. The virtual spring with the optimization algorithm can efficiently generate multiple RVEs that are statistically identical to each other. Smeared crack approach (SCA) is implemented to consider the fracture behavior of the CMC material in a mesh-objective manner. The RVEs are subjected to tension as well as the shear loading conditions. SCA is capable of predicting different fracture patterns, uniquely defined by not only the fiber arrangement but also the specific loading type. In addition, global stress-strain curves show that the microstructural fracture behavior of the RVEs is highly dependent on the fiber distributions.

Abstract Erosion phenomenon of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), attributed to their unique architectural configurations, is markedly different from conventional monolithic ceramic counterparts. Prior to further integration of CMCs into hot-section components of aeroengines subject to erosive environments, their erosion behavior needs to be characterized, analyzed, and formulated. The erosion behavior of a 2-D woven melt-infiltrated (MI) SiC/SiC CMC was assessed in this work as a function of variables such as particle velocity and size. The erosion damage was characterized using appropriate analytical tools such as optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). A phenomenological erosion model was developed for SiC/SiC CMC material systems with respect to kinetic energy of impacting particles in conjunction with nominal density, matrix hardness and elastic modulus of the SiC/SiC CMCs. The model was in reasonable agreement with the experimental data.

Stressed Region

This paper considers the multi-axial stress-strain-failure response of two commercially woven ceramic matrix composites. The different failure mechanisms of uni-axially stressed tows and woven composites are addressed. A model is postulated in which the local transverse and shear stressing, arising from the weave, instantaneously deactivate wake debonding and fiber pullout and initiates dynamic fiber failure; hence, triggering catastrophic failure of the axially stressed region of the tow. The model is shown to predict experimentally measured stress-strain-failure results for the woven composites considered. Simple stress-strain-failure models are also proposed for tows subjected to axial-transverse and axial-shear loadings, but due to the lack of experimental data they have not been validated.

In connection with the continuing decrease in the cost of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and the promising properties of ceramic-matrix composites (CMC) reinforced with CNTs, their wide application in industry is on the agenda. It is necessary to create cheap technologies for the production of CNTs to do this. The review of the technological stages of the industrial production of complex-shaped products from KMK reinforced CNTs is given: the cleaning of raw materials after their production, the dispersion of aggregates and some methods for modifying their surface.

Delamination Resistance

Z-pins reinforced 2D ceramic matrix composites (CMCs), integratedly designed new materials, are developed to enhance 2D CMCs through-thickness in the form of Z-pins and to ensure significant increase in interlaminar fracture toughness, delamination resistance and impact resistance, and Z-pins reinforced 2D CMCs have much application. A manual pre-stitching method is developed to make holes in the graphite fixture to control Z-pins row spacings and to introduce yarns of 3000 T300 carbon fibers bundle into a preform. Z-pins reinforced woven CMCs for research were manufactured successfully by repeatedly using chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) to infiltrate SiC matrix into woven preform and carbon fiber sutures. It is shown that this method of manufactured Z-pins reinforced woven CMC is feasible.
