Very High Temperature Ceramics

A highly efficient gas turbine plant is considered which uses ceramic heat exchanger components to take advantage of the very high turbine inlet temperatures available today.

Very high temperature ceramics.

The materials used in the heat exchangers may have temperatures in excess of 1000 spl deg c. Here we offer a range of high temperature ceramic k type thermocouples. Heritage and capabilities may 2018. Ultra high temperature ceramics uhtcs are a class of refractory ceramics that offer excellent stability at temperatures exceeding 2000 c being investigated as possible thermal protection system tps materials coatings for materials subjected to high temperatures and bulk materials for heating elements.

Broadly speaking uhtcs are borides carbides nitrides and oxides of early. Ceramic materials are brittle hard strong in compression and weak in shearing and tension. Zircar ceramics high temperature materials april 2015. Most advanced power production plant have the process fluid steam or gases usually enclosed inside tubes surrounded.

Ceramics generally can withstand very high temperatures ranging from 1 000 c to 1 600 c 1 800 f to 3 000 f. We have combined the thermometer with our durable high temperature ceramic k type thermocouple cr 2 in 18 5 inch length. Permittivity measurements on a variety of light weight refractory materials by zci april 2019. These very high temperature k type thermocouple can measure up to 1370 c or 2498 f with a suitable thermometer such as our digital k type thermometer dt1311 or dt1312.

What s new and 100 zircar ceramics inc. These have either a braided ceramic fiber insulation or alumina ceramic insulation elements. It can be used in forges smelters crucibles furnaces ovens and kilns.
