Development of precise and reliable measurement methods is an important step in the study of the thermal transport property of inherently complex systems such as thermally sprayed coatings. In this study, the applicability and repeatability of both the laser and xenon flash techniques have been investigated through the measurements on the coatings made from ceramics, metals, alloys, and composites. For the four series of material systems, issues such as the effect of powder morphology, coating thickness, spraying technique, chemical composition, and oxidation on the thermal diffusivity as well as the corresponding measurement repeatability are assessed. This investigation provides information necessary for precise and reliable characterization of the thermal transport property of various thermally sprayed coatings.
