SiC and Si3N4 Recession Due to SiO2 Scale Volatility Under Combustor Conditions
TL;DR: In this article, SiC and Si3N4 materials were tested under various turbine engine combustion environments, chosen to represent either conventional fuel-lean or fuel-rich mixtures proposed for high speed aircraft.
Journal ArticleDOI
Additive Effects on Si3n4 Oxidation/Volatilization in Water Vapor
Elizabeth J. Opila,Elizabeth J. Opila,R. Craig Robinson,Dennis S. Fox,Richard A. Wenglarz,Mattison K. Ferber +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, two commercially available additive-containing silicon nitride materials were exposed in four environments which range in severity from dry oxygen at 1 atm pressure, and low gas velocity to an actual turbine engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Borosilicate Glass‐Induced Fiber Degradation of SiC/BN/SiC Composites Exposed in Combustion Environments
TL;DR: In this paper, three SiC/BN/SiC composite specimens reinforced with different SiC fibers (Sylramic, Sylramic-iBN, and Hi-Nicalon Type S) were exposed in a combustion environment.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Ceramic Matrix Composite Vane Subelement Testing in a Gas Turbine Environment
TL;DR: In this article, a test configuration for the vanes in a gas turbine environment was designed and fabricated, and finite element analyses were performed to predict the temperatures and stress conditions present in vane during rig testing.
Ceramic Matrix Composite Vane Subelements Tested in a Gas Turbine Environment
TL;DR: The use of ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) as vanes for the next generation of turbine engines is under evaluation for improving engine performance, such as lowering emissions and enabling higher cycle efficiency, relative to today's engines with superalloy hot section components as mentioned in this paper.
