Title:
A Novel Manufacturing Process for Gas Turbine High-Temperature Coatings
Agreement Number:
967207
Agreement Value:
$22,000.00
Agreement Date:
Mar 24, 2021 - Sep 30, 2022
Description:
Gas turbine high-temperature coatings play an important role for the design of advanced aircraft engines. Working in harsh engine environments, these coatings will degrade in performance with time and therefore it is critical to understand the mechanisms of the degradation in order to develop more durable coatings for oxidation protection of gas turbine hot section components. As a research collaborator in the NRC New Beginning Initiative project on “A Novel Manufacturing Process for Gas Turbine High-Temperature Coatings”, Prof. Shigeru Saito from Hokkaido University of Science (HUS) will work closely with the NRC Project Lead (PL) to study the properties of high-temperature coatings using his complementary expertise and resources at HUS. Prof. Shigeru Saito’s contributions to this project include microstructural characterization, isothermal evaluation and thermal cyclic assessment of the coatings fabricated at the NRC. His research findings will be jointly published with the NRC PL in scientific journals and conference proceedings.

Program:
Collaborative Science, Technology and Innovation Program – Ideation Fund
Program Purpose:
The Ideation Fund is intended to encourage, test and validate transformative research ideas generated by teams of NRC scientific personnel and external collaborators with complementary capabilities, acting as a demonstration phase for a continually-evolving suite of research and development (R&D) deliverables at the NRC. The fund supports exploratory research through two mechanisms: the New Beginnings Initiative and the Small Teams Initiative.
