What is Fretting Fatigue Cracking of a Center Guide Bolt Supporting the Combustion Chamber in a Heavy-duty Gas Turbine Engine about?

The slotted center guide bolt of the center guide feature of the lower part of the outer shell of an annular combustion chamber was found fractured in a heavy-duty gas turbine engine used for power generation, after approximately 5.500 operating hours. The incident was a one-off event and not a recurring incident. No similar events were reported from the fleet; hence the failure was not considered a field issue. The metallurgical root cause investigation that was ordered to determine the failure mechanism revealed that the incident center guide bolt failed by fretting fatigue cracking, a high cycle fatigue (HCF) phenomenon. 1.4923,X22CrMoV-12 – 1,Großgasturbine,Fretting,Reiboxidation; heavy-duty gas turbine engine,fretting,fretting fatigue cracking 1.4923,X22CrMoV-12 – 1,Großgasturbine,Fretting,Reiboxidation,heavy-duty gas turbine engine,fretting,fretting fatigue cracking
