Case Studies

We have applied VIC-3D(r) (see Expertise in Computational Electromagnetics) to the problem of evaluating the remaining life of thermal barrier coatings that are used in high-performance gas turbines.  These turbines are increasingly appearing as `topping generators' for electric utilities, as well as stand-along systems for small power stations.  The turbines operate at extremely high temperatures that require coatings to maintain structural integrity of the first two stages of turbine blades.  When the coatings degrade, the blades become endangered, and the process of replacement of the entire turbine becomes expensive.  By using eddy-currents and our special inversion algorithms that are rooted in VIC-3D, we can quickly and reliably estimate the state of the coating, thereby allowing an orderly replacement of the endangered blades.
