Thanks for the information it was very informative and I believe you are right about the stress coming from the plug being screwed in.
I do have another question though, what should I read to find out information about the way to predict the residual stresses caused at the root of the tapped...
There should not be any real loads put on each one of the holes. The curvic clutch connection is only located on the rear of the disc on a meaty section. There are no clutch interfaces in front of the disc. I currently know the cyclic life of the disc with the current holes but I cannot seem...
It is a turbine disk. The function is to let cooling air pass through the passage way. The load that the disk sees come from the transfer of power on the curvic clutch gear system to a torque tube. I am currently reading parts of "HANDBOOK OF BOLTS AND BOLTED JOINTS By JOHN H. BICKFORD, SAYED...
I am new to this website so forgive me. My question is I am in need of information that describes how to calculate stress concentration in a localized area due tapping an existing hole that has a cyclic life. To expand my question there is a rotating disk that has a certain amount of holes in...
