Failure and cracking of Inconel 718 air supply manifold support rods: A service-related contribution to lEPG TA 31

In 1995 an air supply manifold support rod from a high-performance turbofan engine failed by bending fatigue. The rod material was Inconel 718, operating at about 550° in an air environment. Diagnostic aspects of the failure (fatigue in bending, Stage I and Stage II fatigue fracture characteristics, and interference colours due to fracture...

NLR experience with high velocity burner rig testing 1979-1989

The NLR has two high velocity burner rigs for oxidation and hot corrosion testing. A large, custom-built rig was commissioned in 1977 to enable actual components to be tested. A smaller rig for specimen testing was purchased in 1986. Experience with these rigs over the last decade is reviewed.

Methoden voor het meten van vervormingen aan constructies - Structural deformation: a comprehensive survey of modern measurement methods

The measurement of deformations remains an important discipline for the development and evaluation of structures. The report gives a survey of the most important measurement methods now available. Aspects of light which are vital for the understanding of optical methods are treated because these methods become more and more important. The...

The influence of different types of anodic layers on the fatigue properties of 202U-T3 and 7056-T6 sheet material

Constant amplitude and flight simulation fatigue tests have been carried out on sulphuric acid, chromic acid and phosphoric acid anodized specimens. A comparison was made with the fatigue behaviour of bare sheet material. Before fatigue testing the fracture strain of the anodic layers was determined.

The reclanation of improperly cadmium electroplated high strength steel parts

Circumferentially notched round specimens of 4340 type steel have been plated in a galvanic bath known to be embrittling. The specimens were reclaimed by stripping and baking. Half the specimens were replated in a non-embrittling bath. Reclamation did not remove all traces of hydrogen embrittlement, but raised the threshold stress to such a...

Testing of coatings and materials for jet engine components in simulated operational environments

Military aircraft flying low level missions in Western Europe encounter a very different environment from that in most of the United States. Industrial pullution causes atmospheric moisture to be highly acid, and the corrosion rate of jet engine components is greatly increased, with consequent high maintenance costs. To help combat this problem...

The effect of sheet edge working on the fatigue life under flight-simulation loading

Fatigue tests under flight-simulation loading have been performed on unnotched Alclad 2024-T3, anodised 2.0 mm thick sheet specimens, manufactured according to several machine-shop processes applied in the air craft industry. From the results it appears that milling is preferable to stamping. Rounding off the edges is also advantageous. The...

The significance of cladding for fatigue of aluminium alloys in aircraft structures

Flight-simulation tests were carried out on sheet specimens notched "by an open hole (Kt = 2.66). The material was 2024-T3 in three conditions; Alclad, bare and chemically milled. The crack initiation period and the crack propagation period were considerably shorter for the Alclad material. The significance of the cladding, both for constant...
