Computational and Experimental Study on Failure Mechanism of a GTD-111 First-Stage Blade of an Industrial Gas Turbine

Computational and Experimental Study on Failure Mechanism of a GTD-111 First-Stage Blade of an Industrial Gas Turbine

This paper investigates the root cause of a recurring failure observed in the first-stage blades of an industrial gas turbine. The failure involves the loss of the trailing edge tip of the blades. The study employs a combination of metallographic analysis and computational simulations utilizing the...
