Abstract
The present paper provides an overview of the structural design of modern steam turbine blades at Siemens power generation using the finite element code ADINA™. The different types of blades are described in detail regarding their geometry and loading. The modular building block approach of modelling is shown to be of essential importance. For the different analyses a fatigue post-processor has been implemented as well as an optimization tool. Both of these in-house codes will be briefly presented.
