Protective Coatings for Turbine Blades B-ASM-021

Information describes and details a methodology for optimizing turbine blade surface protection;

the performance of protective coatings is assessed and evaluated by the complex interconnections of their chemical and phase composition, structure, and physical-mechanical properties;

the properties of overlay coatings are given for the wide range of compositions, including the possible coatings states after their production and long-term service;

and the principles for calculating the stresses and strains for coated turbine blades are reviewed.
