Loughborough University:

• Department of Materials

Research activities for this Supergen project include:

• Characterisation of microstructures for:

                o gas turbine materials - base alloys and coatings

                o steam pipe and heat exchanger tube materials

                o welds between similar and dissimilar metals]

                o evolution with exposure time and temperature for all these materials

• Advanced modelling to predict the development of microstructural features for all these systems with exposure time and temperature
