New Strategies for Improvement of Structural Gas Turbine Engine Parts

Abstract:

In this study, the basic limitations of superalloys in high temperature performances will be explained and then after giving the important properties of MoSi₂ such as oxidation behaviour at relatively low temperatures (500°C-700°C) , some interesting composites of this material will be discussed as a candidate structural material in gas turbine engines.
