Özet

The current study aims to reduce the hot corrosion issues in steam turbines for Al-Mussaib thermal power stations. To gain the aim of the study, many experimental tests were conducted by taking a sample from an existing broken steam turbine blade to identify the alloy composition and preparing samples with exact composition by powder metallurgy method, then using the electro-deposition method to coat the prepared samples by three different coating composite materials consists of TiO2 in different ratios (5, 10 and 15) g/l and 5 g/l SiO2 added to Watt's solution. To verify the efficiency of coating, several tests were conducted (surface roughness, hardness, wear, and oxidation test). The obtained results indicated that increasing the Ni-5%SiO2-TiO2 (5, 10 and 15) g/l caused an increase in the coating thickness, which is compatible with increasing the surface roughness. Also, the sample hardness increased after coating, which returned to increasing TiO2 amount (5, 10 and 15) g/l. However, wear resistance for the samples after coating by selected coating composite and 10 g/l TiO2 amount records the highest reduction in the wear of the sample.
