Structural Integrity Analysis of Gas Turbine Rotor Component using Finite Element Analysis

Dilip A. B, Mr. Syed Zameer

Abstract :

Stress analysis plays important role in finding the static and dynamic stability of the aero structures. Turbines are the most important components in the aero engines. Stresses are generated in gas turbine rotor blades due to centrifugal force acting at the section of airfoil. In the present work, structural integrity of gas turbine blades are checked for 2 cusp and 3 cusps fir–tree contacts. Geometrical models are built using Catia software and later imported to Hypermesh for better quality mesh and results. The analysis results obtained from ANSYS for 3 cusp fir tree contact shows improved results with less radial displacement and stresses compared to 2 cusp fir tree contacts.
