THE STRESS FIELD OF THE FIRST STAGE COMPRESSOR IMPELLER OF THE TV3-117 GAS TURBINE ENGINE USING NUMERICAL SIMULATION

Abstract

This article presents the results of stress field calculations for the first stage compressor impeller using the one-way fluid-structure interaction (FSI) method, which helps determine stress concentration zones and safety factors. Numerical analysis conducted with Ansys software reveals that stress concentration occurs near the blade root on the suction side and within the blade lock-disc zone. In these stress concentration zones, such as the blade lock-disc zone and blade suction side, the minimum safety factor is found to be above 2.27. These findings serve as a foundation for future research on impeller stress fields using two-way FSI methods and for providing recommendations to optimize the stress concentration field in the compressor disc.
