Abstract
High-cycle fatigue (HCF) has been identified as one of the primary causes of gas turbine engine failure. To verify the reliability of the high cycle fatigue fracture of the 5 MW gas turbine engine blade being developed by Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction Co., Ltd., dynamic tests were conducted using real size compressor rigs according to previous studies. The dynamic safety margin of the 5MW gas turbine engine blade was calculated on the basis of the ratio between the dynamic stress and endurance limit stress respectively determined through the compressor rig and fatigue tests. The HCF characteristics and the fatigue life stability of the DGT-5 compressor blades were verified through these processes. A fatigue life design procedure for the gas turbine compressor blade was established on the basis of the design, analysis, and test processes implemented in a previous study. In sum, the 5 MW class gas turbine compressor blades were found to be well designed in terms of resonance stability and fatigue life.
