Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of CMAS intrinsic property testing, and particularly relates to a super-high-temperature CMAS wettability testing method and device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The damage of atmospheric deposits (mainly composed of CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2, referred to as CMAS) such as sand, dust and volcanic ash to the thermal protection system of aero-engines and hypersonic aircraft has become a key problem restricting their performance and service life. With the continuous improvement of the performance of aero-engines, the turbine inlet temperature has increased from 1200℃ to the current 1400℃. When the temperature of these deposits on the blade surface exceeds 1200℃, they will melt to form a CMAS melt with high fluidity, rapidly penetrate into the columnar crystal structure and pores of the thermal barrier coating, and undergo complex physical and chemical reactions with the thermal barrier coating material, thereby changing the phase composition and microstructure of the coating. Meanwhile, solidification and significant volume change occur during the cooling process, and these physical and chemical damages will lead to coating cracking, peeling and failure.

[0003] The flight speed of a hypersonic aircraft exceeds 5 Mach, and the aerodynamic heating makes the surface temperature of the thermal protection system reach above 1600℃, so the melting penetration and chemical corrosion of CMAS are more significant. The CMAS melt not only reduces the mechanical properties of the thermal protection material, but also accelerates the failure of the oxide protective coating, aggravates the oxidation, ablation and fatigue damage of the material, and seriously shortens the service life of the thermal protection system.

[0004] When the molten CMAS comes into contact with the high-temperature protective coating, the wettability behavior occurs between the molten silicate and the ceramic interface due to ion interaction, and its wettability behavior directly affects the adhesion penetration depth, diffusion rate and interface reaction degree of the molten CMAS and the coating, and thus dominates the material failure process.

[0005] Currently, the high-temperature wettability of CMAS is mainly tested by the sessile drop method to test the high-temperature contact angle of the CMAS melt. This method places a CMAS preform on the surface of the substrate material, heats it to the melting temperature in a high-temperature furnace, uses a high-speed CCD camera to record the morphology evolution of the melt drop in real time, and obtains the dynamic contact angle and spreading area through image analysis. However, this method still has the following shortcomings: first, there is a significant difference between the test conditions and the actual service conditions, especially the high-temperature furnace used in the existing test, the heating rate is usually ≤10℃ / min, it is difficult to achieve rapid heating, and the CMAS has already melted and spread during the heating process, so it is difficult to accurately obtain the initial contact angle at the target temperature; second, due to the heating mode of the existing high-temperature furnace, the test temperature is usually not higher than 1500℃, and it is difficult to realize the CMAS wettability test under super-high-temperature (≥1600℃) conditions.

[0006] Chinese invention patent CN110174331A discloses a method for determining the high-temperature wettability of iron ore sintering binder phase, which can improve the sample heating rate to a certain extent by manually feeding the sample into the heating furnace at a certain rate after the heating furnace is preheated to a specified temperature. However, this method cannot accurately control the heating rate, and the test temperature does not exceed 1600℃, which still cannot meet the conditions of super-high-temperature CMAS wettability test.

[0007] Therefore, with the continuous increase of the thrust-to-weight ratio of aircraft engines and the growing demand for hypersonic aircraft development, the service temperature continues to rise, and it is urgent to introduce new heating technology to develop a super-high-temperature CMAS wettability test method and device to realize rapid heating and test the wettability of CMAS under super-high-temperature conditions, reveal the wetting behavior and corrosion mechanism of CMAS under super-high-temperature conditions, and thus accelerate the research and development process of new thermal protection materials.

Generally, the direct current is 0-200 A, and the direct voltage is 0-40 V.

[0050] As a preference, in the present embodiment, the length of the heating body is 100-150 mm, the width is 20-50 mm, and the thickness is 3-10 mm.
