Abstract

A seal system for gas turbine that includes a stator and a blade with a blade tip facing the stator. The blade has a protective ceramic coating having an inner ceramic layer being made of a partially stabilized zirconia and having at least a partially segmented microstructure in form of vertical cracks. The ceramic coating further includes an outer ceramic layer made of fully stabilized zirconia and having a segmented microstructure. Advantageously, the entire airfoil surface is provided with the protective ceramic coating. With the fully stabilized zirconia coating on the tip of a blade which faces a casing with a ceramic coating, a result is a better sealing system. The stator includes an abradable coating having at least an outer ceramic coating being made of fully stabilized or ytterbium stabilized zirconia.
