        Blades of a gas turbine are the main and most important parts of turbine machines that work in very difficult and complex conditions. Existence of discontinuities and defects in the structure of these parts cause sudden and irreparable damage. It can completely take a turbine out of operation and impose huge costs on a power plant. Therefore, pre-installation controls and inspections for these parts are of great importance. One of the safest and most reliable methods of control and inspection is the use of non-destructive tests. One of the methods that has been considered in recent years is the use of infrared waves, which in this method; Surface defects and sometimes even internal defects can be detected by using infrared cameras that operate within a certain range of the electromagnetic wave spectrum (0.8-14 nm). In this paper, we try to review the conventional methods of non-destructive testing that are used in troubleshooting blades of gas turbines, and the method of using infrared waves as an alternative method to conventional methods to be discussed. پرونده مقاله

        Forging of gas turbine blades needs a close control of the process parameters. These parameters require a suitable optimization method to achieve the best process conditions. This paper presents a hybrid method for the optimization of the forging process of an aerofoil blade. Forging process of the aerofoil blade was simulated using 3-dimentional finite element method. Preform shape and die parting-line angle are optimized in order to minimize the volume of the unfilled die cavity, material waste, and forging forces. The overall optimization scheme used in this research work includes a multi-objective approach that is a combination of response surface and finite element methods. The results show that the proposed optimization approach accrued to decrease the flash volume and the forging force of the aerofoil forging process. Therefore the proposed algorithm is a suitable method for the optimization of the gas turbine blade forging processes. پرونده مقاله

        Forging is one of the most important processes for production of titanium parts. Selection and evolution of forging parameters such as the forging preforms, part and die temperatures and strain rate are of great importance to achieve optimal process. In this work, a comprehensive study on the near net hot forging of a Ti-6Al-4V compressor blade is performed through designing several preforms and simulating the process in several die and preform temperatures. The Equipotential lines method is used for the optimal design of preforms and Johnson-Cook constitutive model is used for 3D FE simulations and the criteria for selecting the parameters was the material temperature during the process that is necessary for achieving desired properties of Ti-6Al-4V parts. According to the results, performing the isothermal forging process in increased speeds could lead to increasing the temperature over the β-transus and improper mechanical properties development. So, finding a proper die and preform temperature is necessarily accomplished in this work. According to results the appropriate temperatures for performing the process using modified 0.1v preform and ram speed of 1mm/s were 1050˚C and 450˚C for the preform and die respectively. پرونده مقاله

        Time-dependent reliability analysis of mechanical structures is concerned by the use of an outcrossing approach. In this approach the so-called outcrossing rate plays a critical role and thus it is important to estimate it as straight ward as possible. Despite the availability of a variety of methods to estimate this rate in the literature, still more general and at the same time less sophisticated approaches are desired. In this paper, an analytical method is proposed to evaluate the required outcrossing rate in which the basics of "Parallel System Reliability Formulation" in the framework of directional simulation are used. To indicate the accuracy and efficiency of the method, it is applied to carry out the reliability analysis of a hydrokinetic turbine blade. Since the random variables/processes involved in this analysis possess a set of extremely different variances (and thus make a so-called "non-proportional space); it is shown that the proposed method is also capable to satisfactorily employ a technique of directional importance sampling in order to prohibit massive computations, normally required in such spaces. The results of the analysis show that the proposed method could be successfully applied for the circumstances whose involving processes may be non-stationary and whose space of random variables/processes is extremely non-proportional. پرونده مقاله

        In this research for reducing the effect of losses and increasing the efficiency, the bowing in the rotor and stator blades is used. In one mode rotor blades are curved and in other one, stator blades are curved. The amount of rotor loss, due to changes in the thickness of the trailing edge and operating rotational speed, have been investigated. To confirm the accuracy of the results, a turbine stage whose experimental results are available is modeled and numerical results have been compared with experimental results that indicate acceptable compliance. The turbulence model k-w-SST is used to solve turbulent flow. The positive bowing, creates a pressure gradient from the two ends of the blade towards the center of the blade, which leads to the directing of the secondary flows toward the center of the blade. This reduces the losses in the two ends of the blade and increases the loss in the middle part of the blade. Increasing the thickness of the trailing edge, as well as increasing the turbine’s operating rotational speed, will increase the loss. The curved rotor increases the efficiency and mass flow and power by 0.4% and 0.5% and 0.8% respectively and the curved nozzle reduces the efficiency and power by 0.3% and 4.9% but increases the mass flow by 0.2%. It also increases the thickness of the trailing edge of the first rotor from 0.2mm to 0.9mm at 24000 rotational speed and increases the total loss by about 35%. پرونده مقاله

        : In this paper, the effect of the optimal position and minimum stiffness of the elastic middle support on increasing the fundamental frequency of a rotating cantilever beam is investigated based on the Courant’s maximum–minimum theorem using ABAQUS finite element software. First, the software analysis results are compared with the numerical analysis results for a non-rotating cantilever beam to confirm the accuracy of the software model. Next, by placing the middle elastic support at the optimal point selected based on the Courant theorem, the minimum stiffness of the elastic intermediate support for the maximum fundamental frequency of the rotating console beam was obtained. The results of this study prove that the Courant’s maximum–minimum theorem is completely valid for rotating cantilever beams and can be used to improve the vibrational behavior of rotating engineering components. Finally, the minimum diameter of damping wire for the turbomachine blade is calculated as a practical application of the minimum stiffness of the intermediate elastic support for the rotating beam. پرونده مقاله

        The cause of crack initiation turbine blade had initially cracked by a fatigue mechanism over a period of time and then fractured by the overload at the last moment. Experimental procedure consists of macroscopic inspection, material verification, microscopic examination, and metallographic analysis and finally FE. And for these procedures, some specimens were prepared from a fractured blade. Using ICP and energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence, the chemical composition of the blade was carefully analyzed. The segregated area of Ti and Mo, caused generally by inappropriate manufacturing process, is found by the microstructure and EDX analysis of the blade. The fracture blade which installed on the third stage rotor of the turbojet was fractured at about 6 cm distance from the hub of proposed blade. The non-linear finite element method (FEM) was utilized in order to define the stress state of the disc or blade segment under operating conditions. High stress zones were found at the region of the lower fir-tree slot, where the failure occurred. A computation were also achieved with excessive rotational speed. The aim of this study is devoted to the mechanisms of damage of the turbine disc, and furthermore the critical high stress areas. پرونده مقاله

        The study of vibration response of a turbine blade helps to detect the crack presence in the blade which alters its dynamic characteristics. The change is characterized by changes in the modal parameters associated with natural frequencies. In this paper, study of vibration response is made for turbine blade in the presence of a crack like defect. Turbine blade is initially assumed as a cantilever beam. Modal testing has been carried out for both the beams with different crack depth and crack location ratios using FFT spectrum analyzer and ANSYS software. From the analysis, it has been observed that the crack depth and its location have noticeable effect on the natural frequencies. Later the same cantilever beam was twisted with different angle of twists to validate the cantilever beam model to turbine blade. پرونده مقاله

        Lid-driven cavity flow is characterized by large-scale energetic eddies which are potential for energy harvesting purposes. The present article deals with numerical study of vortex-induced autorotation of an elliptic blade hinged at the center of a lid-driven cavity.Immersed boundary method is utilized to solve the governing equations for this moving boundary problem. Four different blade dimensions are considered at a fairly high-Reynolds number to evaluate the impact of various vortex types and flow unsteadiness on the blade dynamics. Small-amplitude fluttering, clockwise autorotation and counter-clockwise autorotation are three dominant modes observed at various configurations and different temporal stages. The average-length blade is equally characterized by vortices at both directions, and consequently experiences a fluttering mode. In contrast, short (long) bladeis mainly affected by one dominant vortex type, leading to steady autorotation in counter-clockwise (clockwise) direction. At stable autorotation of blade in both directions, regular cyclic temporal oscillations are observed in the rotational speed, which are due to cyclic evolution of the near-blade vortices and their alternating moment applied to the blade. پرونده مقاله

        Attempts at research across various industries to achieve high-quality surfaces have led to the development of new finishing processes. Magnetic Abrasive Finishing is a novel technique where a magnetic field is employed to control an abrasive tool. Gas turbine compressor blades are among the industrial components requiring high surface quality due to their exposed surfaces. The reduction in surface roughness on these components has a significant impact on the efficiency of motor turbines. This paper focuses on studying the Magnetic Abrasive Finishing process parameters for the free surfaces of Titanium blades. Using a mass Magnetic Abrasive Finishing machine, the influence of powder weight, type of abrasive particles, and gap on the variation of surface roughness is investigated through statistical methods such as the response surface. The fabrication of the machine and determination of magnet polarity are carried out using Maxwell simulation software. The Factorial method is employed for experiment configuration. Mechanically alloyed powders produced by ball mills are used in this study. Results demonstrate that employing the magnetic abrasive method can reduce the surface roughness of the blade by up to 33%. The empirical model derived from regression analysis is utilized to predict the variation in surface roughness. Variance analysis of the experimental results indicates the significance of all studied parameters. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) are employed for a qualitative evaluation of the results. پرونده مقاله

Due tothis unwanted proliferation of such verdant institute gets abysmal look and thatdumps off massive fund every year to get rid off it. The shrubs cutting machinescomprises a main body (chassis) with two wheels and handle to provide movementin the field. One power unit (small S.I. engine) is mounted on this to give power forthe cutting blades through small transmission mechanism. The cutting blades aremounted on a small shaft. Which actually perform the cutting operation? We intendto develop a machine which would provide better cutting action of bushes with lowcapital and operational cost.With reference to literature available there are many types of lawn mowers, bushcutters and lawn tractors are exist in the market, which may not fulfill the capital andoperational cost criteria. The main concentration of our design is the cost andoperational ease. During design, development and fabrication the machine wasundergone several laboratory. Field tests like; determination of torque and forceanalysis, load and speed test on design specifications (for shaft, gear and bearings),impact test, balance test and finally cutting output test. After testing we succeed tohave a satisfactory performance, though it requires further more improvementswhich can be done in due course of time in stage II of the project. پرونده مقاله

        The main purpose of this article is the structural analysis of a composite blade of a selected helicopter. In this study, the stresses on rotors' blades caused by centrifugal forces, lift, drag and torque are analyzed. The governing equations of the structure behavior and solving processes were carried out by MATLAB software, and simulation is carried out by ABAQUS software, and they are compared with each other. The program written for MATLAB is based on beam element theory and the computation of stress and displacement of considered elements of a blade, is one of the properties of the written code. In ABAQUS, the helicopter blade is simulated in various states such as composite and aluminum blade with/without web and composite blade with laminations in different angles. The results of the mentioned states are compared with each other and with the code and finally, the results are compared with reference article. Comparison between beam element results and ABAQUS simulation shows proper match. In order to optimize a composite blade, attention must be paid to factors such as, displacement and stress reduction and prevention of excess in weight, as by an increase in thickness of 45 and 90 degree laminates to 6.5 mm, maximum displacement would be 12.9 cm, and total weight of the structure would be 8 Kg. پرونده مقاله

        In this research the validation of different turbulence models of a hovering propeller at different pitch angles and revolutions has been investigated. For this purpose, the pressure on the propeller surface at different cross sections has been calculated numerically by six different turbulence models and compared with the experimental data. In the first part, the effects of changing the blade angle have been discussed, in this case, the angles of 0, 2, and 12 degrees have been selected. The results showed that changes in the pitch angle of the propeller have led to an increase in the error rate of numerical calculations. At a high pitch angle and in the same chord section, the highest amount of error is produced in leading edge section of the propeller, among which the best model in terms of production error is the k-e RNG. Also, due to the possibility of the formation of shock waves, the S-A and k-e standard models have very large errors, which shows these models' inability to simulate rotating flow with shock waves. پرونده مقاله
