Thermal barrier coatings are the key materials for high temperature components of aero turbine engines. The coating flaking failure under severe service conditions and multi-field coupling is the key problem to be solved urgently. The research and development of service environment test simulation device is an inevitable way to solve this problem

and also an important means and method to improve the coating performance. In this paper

the research status of the test simulation device is reviewed in detail from the aspects of single service environment and multi-coupling service environment. The static test device and dynamic test device are mainly described. Finally

the key scientific issues to be studied in the future are analyzed

and the development trend of the service environment simulation test method of thermal barrier coatings is prospected.
