Blade Coating Degradation: Identifying Root Causes

We’ve noticed premature degradation in the coatings on our turbine blades. What steps can we take to identify and prevent this issue?

Check for contaminants in your combustion air. Dust and particulates accelerate coating wear

Inspect the fuel for impurities. Poor fuel quality can lead to hot spots that degrade coatings faster.

Switch to higher-performance coatings designed for your operating conditions. Not all coatings handle cyclic operations well
