A sintering model is presented for prediction of changes in the microstructure and dimensions of free-standing, plasma-sprayed (PS) thermal barrier coatings (TBCs). It is based on the variational principle. It incorporates the main microstructural features of PS TBCs and simulates the effects of surface diffusion, grain boundary diffusion and grain growth. The model is validated by comparison with experimental data for shrinkage, surface area reduction and porosity reduction. Predicted microstructural changes are also used as input data for a previously developed thermal conductivity model. Good agreement is observed between prediction and measurement for all these characteristics. The model allows separation of the effects of coating microstructure and material properties. and captures the coupling between densifying and non-densifying mechanisms. A sensitivity analysis is presented, which highlights the importance of the initial pore architecture. Predictions indicate that the microstructural changes which give rise to (undesirable) increases in thermal conductivity and stiffness are very sensitive to surface diffusion.(1) (C) 2008 Acta Materialia Inc.
