Abstract

A turbine blade is the individual component which makes the turbine section of a gas turbine. The blades are used for extracting energy from the high temperature, high pressure gas produced by the combustor. This research focuses on the modeling, Analysis and 3D printing of gas engine turbine blades, aiming to enhance efficiency and performance in power generation. Utilizing advanced modelling softwares such as CATIA software, a detailed digital representation of the turbine blade was created, considering the aerodynamic feature. Further, the model is analysed in ANSYS for Subsequently, additive manufacturing techniques were employed to produce physical prototypes using high-strength, heat-resistant materials. The study evaluates the structural integrity, thermal resistance, and overall performance of the 3D-printed turbine blades, comparing them with traditional manufacturing methods. The findings contribute to the advancement of turbine technology, demonstrating the feasibility and benefits of 3D printing in optimizing gas engine turbine blade design for increased efficiency and reliability.
