Abstract
The failure analysis on fractured parts is divided into the qualitative method by naked eyes and metallurgical microscope etc. and the quantitative method by SEM and X-ray diffraction etc. X-ray fractography can be applied to contaminated surface as well as clean surface and gain the plastic deformation and the residual stress near the fractured surface. Turbine blade is subject to cyclic bending force by steam pressure and suffers fatigue damage according to the increasing operating time. Therefore, to clean up the fracture mechanism of torsion-mounted blade in nuclear plant, the fatigue and the X-ray diffraction test was performed on the 12%Cr steel for turbine blade and the fractured parts. The correlation of X-ray parameter and fracture mechanics parameter was determined, and then the load applied to actual broken turbine blade was predicted. Failure analysis was performed by contact stress analysis and Goodman diagram of torsion-mounted blade.
