Engineered Materials for Advanced Gas Turbine Engine
Project Description
This project will develop innovative composite powders and composites that will surpass the properties of currently identified materials for advanced gas turbine engine applications. Phase I will demonstrate a powder metallurgy technique for fabricating high-temperature, oxidation-resistant composite powders. Once consolidated, the resulting composite will possess high creep and thermal fatigue strength, and a low coefficient of thermal expansion properties.

Anticipated Benefits
Power plant unit, boilers, diesel engines and stationary gas and steam turbines at a potentially much lower cost sheets for oxidizing atmosphere, Land base gas turbine engine.The composite powders also should find application in thermal-sprayed or cold-sprayed steam oxidation, corrosion-resistant high-temperature coatings for retrofitting existing fossil-fired power plant equipment, and laser additives manufacturing for turbine engine/blade repairing or refurbishing.
