Popis: | The investigation aims at obtaining a life time extension of FeCrAlY heating elements by increasing the emissivity of the alumina surface scales. This approach will allow the use of a lower heating element temperature without decreasing the usable heat output. For this purpose, the oxidation mechanisms of Zr-doped FeCrAlY model alloys were investigated. For thick specimens a high Zr addition is accompanied by an undesired rapid increase of the oxidation rate adversely affecting the life time of the component. However, for thin foil heating elements (typically 50–200 μm thickness) an optimized high Zr content might be a suitable concept for obtaining a high emissivity, because apparently, a dark appearing, high emissivity oxide may be obtained without occurrence of dramatic internal oxidation. |
