Abstract

Sintering neck is a featured microstructure that may have significant effect on the sintering behaviour of air-plasma-sprayed thermal barrier coating system (APS TBCs). Based on experimental observations, a multi-necking wedge-shaped model for the sintering of APS TBCs was proposed by considering the sintering stress as surface tension and by employing the thermal-elasto-viscoplastic constitutive relation. Deformation pattern, stress distribution, sintering induced shrinkage, stiffening behaviour and temperature field were analysed by using finite element method. It is shown that the formation of sintering neck significantly affects thermal and mechanical properties related to sintering. Mechanisms of thermal and mechanical degradation induced by sintering were further elucidated.
