Fatigue Of Two Oxide/Oxide Ceramic Matrix Composites At 1200°C In Air And In Steam. Effect Of Diamond Drilled Effusion Holes, Anthony R. Cabri
Theses and Dissertations
The tension-tension fatigue behavior of two oxide-oxide ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) was investigated at 1200°C in laboratory air and steam. Both composites consist of a porous oxide matrix reinforced with laminated, woven mullite/alumina (NextelTM720) fibers. The first composite had an alumina matrix, while the second had an alumina-mullite matrix. First, we assessed the effects of incorporating mullite into the matrix material on fatigue performance by studying the tension-tension fatigue behavior of alumina-mullite matrix CMC. Second, we evaluated the effects of effusion holes on the alumina matrix CMC's fatigue performance. Specimens containing an array of 17 effusion holes of 0.5-mm diameter …
Fatigue Behavior Of An Advanced Sic/Sic Composite At 1300° C In Air And Steam, Michael Lee
Fatigue Behavior Of An Advanced Sic/Sic Composite At 1300° C In Air And Steam, Michael Lee
Theses and Dissertations
The fatigue behavior of an advanced silicon carbide/silicon carbide (SiC/SiC) ceramic matrix composite (CMC) was investigated at 1300 ºC in laboratory air and in steam environments. The composite was manufactured using chemical vapor infiltration (CVI). The composite consisted of an oxidation-inhibited matrix, which was comprised of alternating layers of silicon carbide and boron carbide and was reinforced with laminated Hi-Nicalon™ fibers woven in a plain weave. Fiber preforms had pyrolytic carbon fiber coating with boron carbon overlay applied. Two specimen geometries were evaluated, a dog bone and an hourglass geometry. Tensile stress-strain behavior and tensile properties were evaluated at 1300 …
Effect Of Prior Exposure At Elevated Temperatures On Tensile Properties And Stress-Strain Behavior Of Three Oxide/Oxide Ceramic Matrix Composites, Christopher J. Hull
Effect Of Prior Exposure At Elevated Temperatures On Tensile Properties And Stress-Strain Behavior Of Three Oxide/Oxide Ceramic Matrix Composites, Christopher J. Hull
Theses and Dissertations
Thermal stability of three oxide-oxide ceramic matrix composites was studied. The materials studied were NextelTM610/aluminosilicate (N610/AS), NextelTM720/aluminosilicate (N720/AS), and NextelTM720/Alumina (N720/A), commercially available oxide-oxide ceramic composites (COI Ceramics, San Diego, CA). The N610/AS composite consists of a porous aluminosilicate matrix reinforced with laminated woven alumina N610 fibers. The N720/AS and N720/A composites consist of a porous oxide matrix reinforced with laminated, woven mullite/alumina (NextelTM720) fibers. The matrix materials are aluminosilicate in N720/AS and alumina in N720/A. All three composites have no interface between the fibers and matrix, and rely on the porous …
