A support apparatus for a gas turbine shroud is disclosed. The apparatus includes an outer shroud block having a coupling connectable to a casing of the gas turbine and a shroud component having a forward flange and an aft flange. The shroud component is attached to the outer shroud block via the forward flange and the aft flange. The apparatus further includes a damper disposed between the outer shroud block and the shroud component and a biasing element disposed within the outer shroud block. A translational degree of freedom between the damper and the outer shroud block defines a direction of motion of the damper. The biasing element is in operable connection between the outer shroud block and the shroud component via the damper, a bias force of the biasing element directed along the direction of motion of the damper.

摘要:
An article having a spallation resistant TBC comprises a metal substrate, such as a high temperature superalloy, and a TBC, such as a coating of yttria stabilized zirconia. The TBC comprises a plurality of plasma-sprayed layers. The TBC has a coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructure, wherein at least one layer has a plurality of continuous columnar grains which have been extended by directional solidification into an adjacent layer. In a preferred embodiment, the coherent, continuous columnar microstructure comprises substantially all of the volume of TBC. A coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructure is also taught wherein at least some of the plurality of coherent, continuous columnar grains which comprise a TBC extend through essentially the entire thickness of the coating. A columnar crack pattern of cracks extending generally normal to the surface of the metal substrate is also developed within TBCs of the present invention in conjunction with the coherent, continuous columnar grain microstructures described.

摘要:
A method for improving the quality of a zirconia-based coating deposited on a metal-based substrate is disclosed. The method comprises the step of plasma-spraying zirconia powder of substantially uniform particle size onto the substrate. The disclosure further relates to an improved powder source material for use in a plasma. The source material is zirconia powder having a uniform particle size, and optionally, a uniform particle density. The use of such a material results in improved thermal barrier coatings for various substrates, such as those found in a turbine engine.
