ARPA-E funds UVA-led team to develop new coating for turbine engin

 E-Mail Elizabeth J. Opila, professor of materials science and engineering and director of the Rolls-Royce University Technology Center on Advanced Material Systems at the University of Virginia, has earned a grant from the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy to increase turbine engine materials temperature tolerance by 200 degrees Celsius. This is an audacious goal for the materials science and engineering community, Opila said. In the turbine engine industry, a ten-degree improvement is cause for celebration. Opila earned a $600,000, phase-one award through the agency s ULTIMATE program, which stands for ultrahigh temperature impervious materials advancing turbine efficiency. ARPA-E s challenge is to develop ultrahigh temperature materials for gas turbine use in the aviation and power generation industries. To achieve this goal, ARPA-E has awarded funds to teams working on four mutually dependent research thrusts: alloy development; coatings for the alloys; systems en
