Sumario:The barrel is the core component of the artillery, and its inner coating is the key material to effectively protect the barrel and improve its service lifetime. Due to its good properties, CrN/Cr composite is a potential alternative to the currently used Cr coating. In this study, finite element simulation has been performed using the software Ansys Workbench to analyze the temperature field and coupled stress field of the Cr coating barrel and the CrN/Cr composite coating barrel, respectively, during the firing. The results showed that compared with Cr coating barrel, the CrN/Cr coating can reduce the temperature and significantly mitigate the stress in the coating/steel matrix interface; thus, it is expected the CrN/Cr coating can better protect the artillery barrel.
