Abstract
Materials are a core part of the development in mechanical turbines, where there is always potential for life-improvement. The demand for alloys with durability, low cost, and long service cycles are evergreen. The materials used in turbomachinery must have excellent resistance to thermal fatigue, as well as high temperature oxidation and corrosion resistance. Good creep resistance is also an important consideration, especially for large blades and multi-airfoil latter stage nozzles. Development of new alloy compositions and material characterization plays a critical role in advanced machinery evolution. In this work, some of the available characterization methods are applied to analyze and study the effect of heat treatment, service effect and aging on alloys.
