Abstract: Rotating blades are the important parts in gas turbines. Hence, an accuratemathematical estimation (F.E.M) of the stresses and deformations characteristics wasrequired in the design applications to avoid failure. In recent years there are researchersinterest in the effect of temperature on solid bodies has greatly increased, The main of thisstudy investigated the thermal and rotational effects. So, the thermal stresses due to high
pressure and temperature are studies, also determine the steady state stresses anddeformations of rotating blades due to mechanical effect. Many parameters such asthickness and centre of rotating are investigated in this paper. The study results can ensuregood recommendation for the effect of the mechanical and thermal stresses of rotary
blades.
Keywords: Thermal Stresses, Finite Element Method, Mechanical Stresses , BladeMaterial , Design .
IntroductionRotating blades was one of the
common structural elements used inseveral practical machines such asturbomachinery system, turbojet engines,turbofan, and helicopter rotors. Becauseturbomachinary blades are assumed as ashell, the numerical technique should becapable of representing this complicatedstructure based upon the shell theory. Inthis paper the type of rotating blades were
used is rectangular blade, the geometry for this type was show in figure (1).Ramamurti and Sreenivasamurthy [1]studied the dynamic stress analysis of rotating twisted and tapered blades. The
finite element method was used to determine thestresses and deformations. Three-dimensional,twenty-node isoparametric elements have beenused for the analysis. Extensive analysis has
been done for various pre-twist angles, skewangles, breadth to length ratios, and breadth tothickness ratios of the blades. Experiments werecarried out to determine the stresses for theverification of the numerical results. Lee [2]determined the frequencies and mode shapes of
turbomachinery blade having both camber and twist.The body forces were considered to be centrifugalforces generated within the shell due to rotation of the blade. Omprakash and Ramamurti

metal. But for high temperature gasturbines, Nimonic alloy series arerecommended. They are basically
Nickel-Chromium alloys, whichwithstand oxidation, mechanicalstresses, and creep at workingtemperatures in excess of 1000 o C. in themiddle part of the turbine, thetemperature and stress conditions aremoderate, but corrosion is likely. Brassis probably the most suitable material.
In the final stages, and especially inlarge machines, the blades are long andheavily stressed. Fatigue action due tovibration may exist. Further than this,
anti corrosion properties are alsodesirable. Brass is a suitable materialwhere the stress conditions allow of itsuse, but when the stresses are high, 5%
Nickel Steel, Stainless Steel, Monelmetal or Phosphor Bronze may be used.
Turbine Blade Design Turbine blades operate at 1400 0C andare required to have a service life of 10000- 20000 hours. The techniquesused to meet these requirements are:
1) The use of nickel basedsuperalloys (containing many
precipitates, solid solution atomsand having high oxidationresistance)
2) The blades are cast a singlecrystal. This means that there areno grain boundaries within thestructure and thus minimizescreep see Fig. (2)
3) The blades are internally cooled
to allow increased operatingtemperatures. Typical coolingdesign features are shown in Fig.(3)
4) The blades are coated to increasethe oxidation resistance as shownin Fig. (4). A timeline of techniques to raise engine-operating temperatures is shownin Fig. (5 &6)
[3] carried out the steady state,dynamic stress and deformationanalysis of high pressure stageturbomachinery bladed discs takinginto account all the geometriccomplexities involved and included thecontributions due to initial stress andmembrane behavior, which used atriangular shell element with sixdegrees of freedom per node. Yoo [4]studied the vibration analysis of rotating pre-twisted blade with aconcentrated mass. The blade has anarbitrary orientation with respect to therigid hub to which it is fixed. Theequations of motion are derived basedon a modeling method that employshybrid deformation variables. Theresulting equation for the vibrationanalysis was transformed in thedimensionless parameters on the modelcharacteristics of the rotating bladeswere investigated through numericalanalysis
Blade Materials The elimination of blade corrosion and
designing against creep and fatigue, toa large extent, is a problem of findingsuitable materials. Another factor,especially in high-pressure work, is theworking temperature of the blades.Under high temperatures, somematerials tend to disintegrate, andcertain mechanical properties, e.g.hardness (in the sense of resistance toabrasion), are affected adversely.
The properties, which are desirablefor example in turbine blading, varyaccording to the conditions of operationand according to the location of the
blading in the turbine [5]. At high- pressure end, the temperature is high,and the blades are sometimes subjectedto erosive action. Great strength is notrequired as the blades are usually short.The material should be hard at hightemperatures. Suitable materials are 5%

Finite Element technique
The difficulties in evaluating the stress anddeformations of rotating blades comes fromthe complex geometry of blades due toasymmetry of cross-section, pre-twist, andmounting the blades at a skew angle to therotating disk. The pre-twist and skew of the
blade cause coupling in both bendingdirections, and the asymmetry of the cross-section causes coupling with the tensionalmotion of the blade. For the abovecomplexities, all previous investigations inthis field had declared that plate or shellanalysis for blades is suitable and reliable.Therefore, the shell theories with finite
element provide a useful tool to analyzesuch structures. A superparametric shellelement will be used to investigate thethermal and mechanical stresses of rotating
blades. This element consists of four corner and four midside nodes as shown in Fig. (7).The degrees of freedom considered at The sare the three translations u, v, w of themidsurface and two rotations and of thenormal to the midsurface. The Cartesiancoordinates of any point of the shell and thecurvilinear coordinates can be written in the

where l 3i, m 3i and n 3i are the directioncosines of the normal to the middle surface.Here f i is a function taking a value of unityat the node i and zero at all other nodes, it iscalled as shape function ( 4).as shown intable.(1).In the kinematics formulation twoassumptions are imposed:
1- Nodal fiber isinextensible.
2- Only small rotationsare considered.

Numerical Solution Two cases were studied, steady state and thermal
stresses as follows:Steady -State Analysis
In this section the steady state stresses anddeformations were calculated, The blades consideredwere made of steel; and the material properties are:modules of elasticity = 207 * 10 3 Mpa, Poissonsratio = 0.3, Density = 7850 kg/m 3. Other informationare: Speed of rotation = 5000 r.p.m, Disk radius/width = 4, width = 0.05m. In this respect, anumerical study for a rectangular cross-section bladeis given in details because it is a common model.
Comparison of the results
A comparison with experimental published resultsis achieved between the present work and theexperimental work [1].
In this comparison, a rectangular steel blade isconsidered, having the following dimensions andmaterial properties: Length = 100 mm, Width =25mm, Thickness =3mm, Skew angle = 90 o , Radiusto root = 125mm, and maximum speed of rotation =2500 r.p.m, Modulus of elasticity = 207 * 10 3 Mpa,Poissons ratio =0.3, Density = 7850 kg/m 3 . Straingauges were used as transducers and the results areshown in Table 2Effect of Rotational speed
