    • CST07 - Blade failure analysis for steam turbines used for driving centrifugal compressors 
      Nakamura, Yuki; Tsurusaki, Yuzo; Oishi, Yusuke; Fujimura, Norihito; Sasaki, Yuichi; Hara, Akihiro (Turbomachinery Laboratory; Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station; Texas A & M University. Libraries, [2019])
      Blade failure was caused by a huge alkaline element of Na flowing into the steam turbine from upstream due to improper water treatment. In this presentation, we will inform the reason why Na precipitated in dry steam ...
    • Investigation of Steam Turbine blade failure 
      Vengurlekar, Ashutosh; Fisher, Robert D.; Nakamura, Yuki; Sasaki, Yuichi; Hata, Satoshi; Ikeno, Kyoichi (Turbomachinery Laboratories, Texas A&M Engineering Experiment Station, 2016)
      Blade failure was observed on a backpressure steam turbine (driving a centrifugal compressor) after it was in service for more than one year. This paper presents details of observations, inspections carried out and root ...
