Aero-engine turbine disks are safety-relevant components which are operated under high thermal and mechanical stress conditions. The actual part qualification and certification procedures make use of spin-tests conducted on production-similar disks. The aim of this work is to present part of a fracture mechanics-based procedure under development which aims at replacing the tests on production-similar disks with lab tests on fracture mechanics specimens. The finite element simulation of the cracked disk considers the real thermal and mechanical loading conditions. In order to design a lab representative specimen, beside the crack driving force, expressed in terms of 𝐽-integral, also the constraint to plastic deformation e.g., stress triaxiality, at the crack-tip must be similar for the same crack in the specimen and in the disk. This has been achieved and as expected, both the highest 𝐽 -integral and constraint factor are calculated at the same location along the crack front for both disk and specimen. The results of the structural integrity assessment in the form of a Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD) show good agreement between designed specimen and disk both in terms of expected failure mode and value of the critical speed. In addition, probabilistic aspects are also considered in the calculations.
Aero-engine turbine disks are safety-relevant components which are operated under high thermal and mechanical stress conditions. The actual part qualification and certification procedures make use of spin-tests conducted on production-similar disks. While these tests provide, on the one hand, a reliable definition of the critical conditions for real components, on the other hand they represent a relevant cost item for engine manufacturers. The aim of this work is to present two alternative burst speed assessment methods under development based on the Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD) and a global stability criterion, respectively. In the scope of the fracture mechanics assessment, the failure modes hoop-burst and rim-peeling are investigated with semicircular surface cracks modelled at the critical regions on the turbine disk. The comparison of the predicted critical rotational speed shows good agreement between the assessment methods.
Turbinenscheiben sind thermisch und mechanisch hochbeanspruchte, sicherheitsrelevante Komponenten in Gasturbinen. Ihre Integrität wird in Bauteiltests unter Überdrehzahlbedingungen nachgewiesen. Kontext des Aufsatzes ist die Erarbeitung einer zusätzlichen Bewertungsebene auf der Grundlage von Versuchen unter monotoner Beanspruchung, die die Beanspruchung im Bauteil realistisch wiedergeben soll. Dazu werden zwei Typen von bruchmechanischen Proben anwendungsnah ausgelegt und aus einer Turbinenscheibe ausgeschnitten: Der erste Typ ist eine biaxiale Probe, die die Beanspruchung und den Dehnungsbehinderungszustand am Diaphragm der Turbinenscheibe abbildet, die zweite eine bruchmechanische Probe, die die einachsige Beanspruchung und den Dehnungsbehinderungszustand am Bore der Turbinenscheibe wiedergibt.
Im Rahmen eines Schadentoleranzansatzkonzepts ist anschließend jeweils ein halbelliptischer Riss an den genannten Stellen der Turbinenscheibe zu betrachten. Mittels numerischer Berechnungen wird ein kritischer Punkt auf der Rissfront des Risses am Diaphragm bestimmt, dort wo die höchste Rissspitzenbelastung (J-Integral) auftritt. Auf der Basis der Rissspitzenbelastung, des Dehnungsbehinderungszustands und des entsprechenden Spannungsverhältnisses an diesem kritischen Punkt wird eine Kreuzprobe mit einem Durchriss konzipiert, die diese Verhältnisse im Bauteil widerspiegelt. Die Versuche werden unter der Temperatur am Diaphragm der Turbinenscheibe durchgeführt. Die J-R-Kurve und die plastische Kollapsgrenze werden bestimmt. Auch die einachsigen Versuche werden unter der Temperatur am Bore der Turbinenscheibe durchgeführt. Die Zugprobe enthält halbelliptische Oberflächenrisse. Ähnlich wie bei der Auslegung der Kreuzproben werden die Rissspitzenbelastung, der Dehnungsbehinderungszustand und das Spannungsverhältnis vergleichbar mit der Turbinenscheibe eingestellt. Die J-R-Kurve und die plastische Kollapsgrenze werden bestimmt.
Mit den Versuchsergebnissen werden die kritischen Lasten für verschiedene Versagensmechanismen (instabiles Risswachstum, plastischer Kollaps) der bruchmechanischen Proben ermittelt, die der kritischen Überdrehzahl der Turbinenscheibe entsprechen.
Aero-engine turbine disks are safety-relevant components which are operated under high thermal and mechanical stress conditions. The actual part qualification and certification procedures make use of spin-tests conducted on productionsimilar disks.

The aim of this work is to present part of a fracture mechanics-based procedure under development which aims at replacing the tests on production-similar disks with lab tests on fracture mechanics specimens. In particular, the rimpeeling failure mode is considered as case study. A semi-circular surface crack is modelled at the most stressed region at the diaphragm of a turbine disk, with the crack plane perpendicular to the radial direction. The crack is therefore subjected to a biaxial stress state and grows under increasing rotational speed until it triggers the rim-peeling failure. The finite element simulation of the cracked disk considers the real thermal and mechanical loading conditions. In order to design a lab representative specimen, beside the crack driving force, expressed in terms of -integral, also the constraint to plastic deformation e.g., stress triaxiality, at the crack-tip must be similar for the same crack in the specimen and in the disk. This has been achieved and as expected, both the highest -integral and constraint factor are calculated at the same location along the crack front for both disk and specimen. The results of the structural integrity assessment in the form of a Failure Assessment Diagram (FAD) show good agreement between designed specimen and disk both in terms of expected failure mode and value of the critical speed. Probabilistic aspects are also considered in the calculations.

This presentation focuses on the basic ideas and current status of the development of an arithmetical method to predict the failure rotational speed of turbine disks. The certification specification requires that a gas turbine aero-engine must hold 5 minutes at overspeed conditions without critical failure. Therefore, instead of experimental proof from spin-tests using test-disks similar to engine components, it is considered to use simple specimen with similar test conditions compared to real overspeed scenarios. These test conditions, or stress fields are determined using arithmetical method, e.g. finite element method, with consideration of fracture mechanics under quasi-static conditions with a given rotational speed.
Failure modes like hoop burst and rim peeling are considered during determination of stress fields. Various crack-tip parameters are used to explore the similarity of stress field between simple specimen and real overspeed scenarios. Additionally, probabilistic aspects and the implementation of a global stability criterion for overspeed analysis are also considered.
