steam turbines. Pitting is the first stage of corrosion attack and it occurs in the steeple attachment serrations. If allowed to progress pitting can develop into more serious stress corrosion cracking. Depending on the turbine design, one or more rows of blade attachments may operate in an environment with wet steam that is subject to high stress

Turbine blades from a grinding vendor reporting the occasional appearance of "linear indications" were evaluated. The indications were found to be grain boundary cracks, some over 1 mm in depth, running perpendicular to the grinding direction. The cracked blades showed signs of surface melting which can be regarded as a prerequisite for ...
Conclusions The effect of crowning of dovetail attachments on the damping of turbine blade root is investigated. Results obtained for 2D flat indenters ([1]), are applied to the 3D dovetail attachment by means of Cerruti potential functions to compute the dissipated energy and the hysteresis cycles of contact tangential forces.
Field System Machining has provided turbine and generator journal machining to the power generation industry since 1978. We can hone and polish turbine journals to a finish of 8 RMS, but for applications which do not require such a smooth finish we go to16 RMS since it offers the best smoothness-to-oil-adhesion ratio. Field System Machining …

I claim: 1. The method of finishing to a desired dimension the tips of a plurality of airfoil blades removably mounted around the periphery of a rotor disk, the combination comprising a rotor assembly of an axial flow turbo-machine, which comprises rotating the rotor assembly about a rotor axis in a direction which moves the airfoil blades in a concave side direction so that air …
The blade and disc's interface region (dovetail) is an integral part that plays an essential role in advanced flight machines. In this region, the major source of stress arising is the rotation of an engine shaft. Concerning this, geometry, material selection, and stress calculation need to perform at the predesign phase. This paper proposes four-directional braided ceramic …

Dovetail attachments in gas turbines are subject to fatigue failures. These fatigue failures occur as a result of large fluctuations in hoop stresses near the edges of contact in attachments. The high hoop stresses available for fluctuating are, in turn, the result of high contact stress peaks near the edges of contact. One means of alleviating these stresses is via …
Your objective of doing cylindrical grinding is-. To get a good surface finish. Geometrical accuracy like concentricity between two or more diameters on a shaft or between the bore and outside diameter of a cylindrical work-piece. Most importantly, to machine the hardened work-piece for which grinding is the only machining process.
Blades in gas and steam turbines continually face more challenging requirements for high reliability and efficiency. In order to meet these challenges in an increasingly competitive marketplace, blade design engineers are always looking for more efficient ways to design the blades in the shortest possible time and at the lowest possible cost while meeting multiple …

Grinding also produces less residual stress, improving the fatigue life of turbine rotors and reducing rejection rates by as much as 50 percent. An added benefit can be a significant reduction in the time and cost of deburring and finishing the rotors. Finally, the process can decrease tooling costs by as much as 80 percent.
The turbine shaft of the turbocharger (Fig. 1) has a very special structure.This is an important part connecting the two turbine blades. Usually, the shaft part is manufactured in one piece with the compressor blade, so in the process of using, the shaft is worn or when there is a problem with the turbine blade, it is required to replace both the shaft and the turbine blade.
