Barrier Coating

This is a numerical study of thermal barrier coating (TBC) and turbulence on leading edge (LE) cooling of a guide vane. Numerical results were carried out using 3D CFD with conjugate heat transfer analysis. Important phenomena were revealed. (1) TBC is effective in the LE region especially when free stream turbulence (Tu) increases. (2) At each Tu, TBC near the hub of the vane provides the most effective protection and at the highest Tu, TBC improves overall cooling effectiveness there by about 25%. (3) Near the exits of film hole, TBC may have negative effect, because of heat transfer impedance from the solid structure into the mixing fluid between mainstream and cooling air emitted from film holes.

Conjugate Heat Transfer studies are a common method to predict the thermal loading in high pressure nozzles. Despite the accuracy of nowadays tools, it is not clear how to include the uncertainties associated to the turbulence level, the temperature distribution or the thermal barrier coating thickness in the numerical simulations. All these parameters are stochastic even if their value is commonly assumed to be deterministic. For the first time, in this work a stochastic analysis is used to predict the metal temperature in a real high pressure nozzle. The domain is the complete high pressure nozzle of F-type Mitsubishi Heavy Industries gas turbine with impingement, film and trailing edge cooling. The stochastic variations are included by coupling Uncertainty Quantification Methods and Conjugate Heat Transfer. Two Uncertainty Quantification methods have been compared: a Probabilistic Collocation Method (PCM) and a Stochastic Collocation Method (SCM). The stochastic distribution of thermal barrier coating thickness, used in the simulations, has been measured at the midspan. A Gaussian distribution for the turbulence intensity and hot core location has been assumed. By using PCM and SCM, the probability to obtain specific metal temperature at midspan is evaluated. The two methods predict the same distribution of temperature with a maximum difference of 0.6% and the results are compared with the experimental data measured in the real engine. The experimental data are inside the uncertainty band associated to the CFD predictions except near at the trailing edge on the pressure side. This work shows that one of the most important parameters affecting the metal temperature uncertainty is the pitch-wise location of the hot core. Assuming a probability distribution for this location, with a standard deviation of 1.7 degrees, the metal temperature at midspan can change up to 30%. The impact of turbulence level and thermal barrier coating thickness is one order of magnitude less important.

Conjugate heat transfer is gaining acceptance for predicting the thermal loading in high pressure nozzles. Despite the accuracy nowadays of numerical solvers, it is not clear how to include the uncertainties associated to the turbulence level, the temperature distribution, or the thermal barrier coating thickness in the numerical simulations. All these parameters are stochastic even if their value is commonly assumed to be deterministic. For the first time, in this work a stochastic analysis is used to predict the metal temperature in a real high-pressure nozzle. The domain simulated is the high pressure nozzle of an F-type Mitsubishi Heavy Industries gas turbine. The complete coolant system is included: impingement, film, and trailing edge cooling.

Two Stages

Phase II of the high-temperature turbine test was performed using the High-Temperature Developing Unit (HTDU). This unit has the same two stages as the high-pressure turbine of the AGTJ-100A reheat system. The purpose of the Phase II test was to investigate the potential of candidate technologies that may be applied to the advanced engine, the AGTJ-100B. Cooling characteristics of several cooling schemes for the first stage blades, and the performance of thermal barrier coating employed on the first stage nozzles and blades, were investigated. This paper presents the Phase II test results.

Micro Structures

Due to different preparation processes and long term operation, the micro structure of thermal barrier coating is different. The different micro structures have great effect on the thermal insulation properties of thermal barrier coatings and the conjugate heat transfer between the cooling film and thermal barrier coatings. In this work, different micro structures of thermal barrier coating were reconstructed using the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of two kinds of real thermal barrier coatings. The developed numerical calculation program based on the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) was used to analyze the conjugate flow field and heat transfer between cooling film and porous thermal barrier coatings. The results show that the micro structures of thermal barrier coatings have a great influence on the stability of the surface film. Weak spatial variations in fluid velocity appear over the coating surface. The spatial variations in velocity over the layered coatings are larger because of its rough surfaces. The ratio of the vertical velocity to the bulk flow velocity can reach 2.5%. There is obvious vortex flow at the interface of coatings and cooling film, and weak flow in the interior perpendicular pores of the columnar coatings.
