METHOD OF APPLICATION FOR LAYERED THERMAL BARRIER COATING WITH BLENDED TRANSITION

A method includes generating a plasma plume with a plasma gun, delivering a plurality of coating materials to the plasma plume with a powder feeder assembly to vaporize the coating materials. The delivery includes delivering a first (bond coat) material from a first powder feeder to the plasma gun,...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method includes generating a plasma plume with a plasma gun, delivering a plurality of coating materials to the plasma plume with a powder feeder assembly to vaporize the coating materials. The delivery includes delivering a first (bond coat) material from a first powder feeder to the plasma gun, ceasing delivery of the first material, increasing a rate of delivery of a second (rare earth stabilized zirconia) material from a second powder feeder to the plasma plume, increasing a rate of delivery of a third material (a rare earth stabilized zirconia material different from the second material) from a third powder feeder to the plasma plume, decreasing a rate of delivery of the second material, and decreasing a rate of delivery of the third material, and depositing the plurality of coating materials on a work piece to produce a layered coating with blended transitions between coating layers.
