Reconditioning of Steam Turbine Blades and Rotor Disks

  • Published:
Power Technology and Engineering Aims and scope

Abstract

Factors affecting the life of steam turbine blades and intermediate- and low-pressure rotor sectors are considered. The causes of these factors are analyzed and their effect on the reliability and life of blades and disks is estimated. Methods for reconditioning the parts are presented.
