The residual stress distribution generated during manufacturing processes of a jet engine component plays an important role in determining component life. The heat treatment, machining and pre-service spin variables (if used) contribute to the magnitude and location of residual stresses generated prior to service. Such variables have traditionally not been included in design optimization due to the lack of accurate and efficient process modeling design tools. Increased demand for higher speed and higher temperature disks has necessitated advanced multidisciplinary modeling tools in order to deliver high performance, robust and cost favorable solutions. Component process modeling that considers disk stresses through heat treatment, machining, pre-service spin and design operation has been linked and automated to minimize service stress for locations of interest. This paper uses a superalloy 718 disk as an example to illustrate integration and automation of residual stress and service stress modeling that will ultimately impact component life.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
