About this document
Gas Turbine Blade Failure Analysis by ernesto ndjoli roku is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) The document discusses a failure analysis of a gas turbine blade made of Inconel 738LC alloy. 2) Visual inspection and fractography revealed pitting on the blade surfaces and fatigue marks on the fracture surface. Microstructural analysis found no critical changes. 3) The failure originated from hot corrosion at the leading edge, which led to fatigue crack propagation and final fracture once the cross-sectional area was reduced.
