| الملخص: | Fracture analysis of thin rotating discs can be carried out through numerical methods like
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) or Boundary Element Method (BEM). These methods aim to
analyze the stress concentration and intensity in the disc under different loading conditions,
such as radial tension and rotation. Thin rotating discs have typically been found in aircraft
engine compressors and turbines.
Non-centralized holes in the disc can cause stress concentration and intensity due to
discontinuity in the material. To understand the impact of these holes on the stress
distribution in the disc, it is essential to analyze the Normalized Stress Concentration (Kt)
and Normalized Stress Intensity (K0) values associated with these holes.
Geometrical parameters are to be varied in studying how these parameters affect the Kt
and K0 values of the disc under different loading conditions. Results from the stress
concentration analysis reveal that the maximum principal stress is in the 180° region of the
non-centralized holes for various parameters, indicating significant stress concentration at
this point when undergoing rotation. In investigation of the stress intensity factor, crack
lengths are varied. This investigation reveals that both the stress intensity factor and stress
concentration factor decrease as the number of non-centralized holes increases, giving a
downward trend. This decrease suggests with the addition of more holes, stress
concentration and intensity in the disc could be potentially reduced.
In conclusion, numerical methods like FEA or BEM can be used to perform fracture analysis
of thin rotating discs. They can also be used to examine the effects of non-centralized holes
on disc stress distribution. By understanding the Kt and K0 values, engineers can design
discs that withstand high-speed rotation and other loading conditions, improving aircraft
engine safety and reliability |
