Abstract

A rotating blade is the component, which convert the energy of the fluid into mechanical energy. Thus, the reliability of these blades is very important for the successful operation of a turbine. Metallurgical examinations of failed blades show that almost all the failures can be attributed to the fatigue of metal.
