In the field of combined cycle power generation, thermal barrier coating(TBC) protects the super-heat-resistant alloy, which forms the core component of the gas turbine, from high temperature exposure. As the turbine inlet temperature(TIT) increases, TBC is more important and durability performance is also important when considering maintenance cost and safety. Therefore, studies have been made on the fabrication method of TBC and super-heat-resistant alloy in order to improve the performance of the TBC. In recent years, due to excellent properties such as high temperature creep resistance and high temperature strength, turbine blade material have been replaced by a single crystal superalloy, however there is a lack of research on TBC applied to single crystal superalloy. In this study, to understand the isothermal degradation performance of the TBC applied to the single crystal superalloy, isothermal exposure test was conducted at various temperature to derive the delamination life. The growth curve of thermally grown oxide(TGO) layer was predicted to evaluate the isothermal degradation performance. Also, microstructural analysis was performed by scanning electron microscope(SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) to determine the effect of mixed oxide formation on the delamination life.

The out-of-phase thermo-mechanical fatigue (OP TMF) in a <001> oriented single crystal nickel-based superalloy CMSX-4 has been studied. OP TMF life was less than a half of low cycle fatigue(LCF) life in spite of a small hysteresis loop area of OP TMF compared to that of LCF. The failure was caused by the initiation of a crack at the oxide-layered surface followed by its planar growth along the <100> ${\gamma}$ channel in both LCF and OP TMF. However, deformation twins appeared near the major crack of OP TMF. The multiple groups of parallel twin plates on {111} planes provided a preferential path for crack propagation, which caused a significant decrease in OP TMF life. Additionally, the analysis on the surface crack morphology revealed that the tensile strain at the minimum temperature of OP TMF was found to accelerate the crack propagation.

가스터빈엔진의 고온 부품은 초내열 합금 재료를 이용하며, 냉각설계 적용으로 형상이 복잡하여 정밀 주조 과정을 거치게 된다. 터빈 부품에 주로 적용이 되는 일방향 응고 및 단결정 재료는 제조 과정에서 결정립 성장 방향이 설계와 다르게 섭동을 가지게 되며, 이는 각 방향에 대한 재료 상수의 섭동을 유발하여 응력 분포의 변화와 함께 피로 수명에 큰 산포를 야기하게 된다. 본 연구에서는 일방향 응고 재료 노즐에 대하여 결정립 성장 방향의 섭동에 대한 구조 건전성의 영향을 저주기 피로 수명을 통해 확인하여, 향후 제작 허용값에 대한 제안 및 좀 더 정교한 통계적 접근이 필요함을 확인하고자 한다. 이를 위해 복합 열전달 해석을 통해 금속 온도 분포를 계산하고 이를 근거로 구조 해석 및 저주기 피로 수명을 계산하였다.
