摘要
The paper investigates the causes of failure of low pressure steam turbine blade of the last stage and suggests few techniques to overcome the failure causes is presented in this paper. The blade under investigation is made of chrome alloy steel. The fracture occurred at the airfoil region of the blade. The investigation included visual inspection, micro structural characterization, SEM-EDS microanalysis and spectroscopy test to identify the causes of failure. The paper also suggests the methods to reduce the blade fatigue subsequently through computation and to enhance the fatigue strength of the steam turbine blade. In order to reduce the blade fatigue susceptibility and to enhance the fatigue life of the steam turbine blade, the wedge shape friction damper is proposed.
