Content of the course
Materials that can withstand high temperatures are an integral part of many systems and processes. Knowledge of the processes at high temperatures as well as the material classes and measurement methods will be taught in this lecture. The processes include diffusion, creep, corrosion and phase formation. The material classes include, for example, refractory metals and intermetallic phases, superalloys and conventional iron and nickel-based alloys that have found their way into high-temperature applications. Experimental alloys, such as MAX phases and high entropy alloys, are also addressed.
Please enroll in the OPAL course Thermophysical Methods, where you will find the lecture notes and further information.
