Correlation of Vibratory Root Failures and Stress Distribution in J65 Compressor Blades
Description:
Report presenting an investigation of the stress distribution in the roots of the first three stages of the J6S axial-flow compressor in order to explain root failures experienced in service. Root failures were producible in the lab when high vibratory stresses were combined with simulated centrifugal loads. Results regarding fatigue tests on the original J6S blade roots and on two redesigned blade roots as well as a comparison of the different root designs are provided.
