Coating, Layer, and Bulk Material for Extreme Thermal Protection

BACKGROUND As we continue to push the performance boundaries of modern technology, the need for effective thermal protection of concrete or common building structures becomes increasingly critical. Electric Vehicle battery fires can exceed 2,000 °F and threaten property and lives. Extreme heat in industrial equipment applications, including furnaces...

Small Gas Turbine Engine Advanced Manufacturing Combustor Turbine Design for Advanced-Manufactured Small-Scale Turbojet Engines

BACKGROUND High-speed unmanned aircraft are currently used for a variety of time-critical missions but are limited by several key factors. Turbine rotational speeds are constrained by mechanical stress and thermal limitations. High operating temperatures combined with higher rotational speeds can lead to undesired malfunctions within a turbojet engine....

Coating, Layer, and Bulk Material for Extreme Thermal Protection

BACKGROUND High-temperature applications, such as rocket engine combustion output, can reach temperatures as high as 3,315 °C (6,000 °F). Enough heat to fuse a concrete surface, like a launch pad, into glass. Fused concrete has a limited lifetime as structural integrity is compromised in some cases immediately, resulting in potentially dangerous...
