A Parametric Physics Based Creep Life Prediction Approach to Gas Turbine Blade Conceptual Design

The required useful service lives of gas turbine components and parts are naturally one of the major design constraints limiting the gas turbine design space. For example, the required service life of a turbine blade limits the firing temperature in the combustor, which in turn limits the performanc...
