Aircraft Stress

[GlasgowStudent]

Guys i'm currently in my final year of study s and doing
my technical project on the stress's experienced by
aircraft turbine blades during the three main stages of a
flight, namely ; take-off,cruise & landing. I was
wondering whether anyone knew where to get a hold of any
suitable geometry regarding aircraft blades? I was
planning on carrying out analysis on ANSYS and finding
out more regarding the behaviour of the materials at
higher operating temps.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Kind Regards

A very stressed Student!

you want templates????

You are unlikely to get real geometry, as it is a trade secret (but you could try writing to Rolls-Royce). Therefore just invent something half sensible. Exact geometryshould not matter for your course as long as you demonstrate that you know how to go about the process and how to interpret the results and how to change the geom to improve them. Discuss the approach with your supervisor first.

thanks ray, company's funnily enough aren't very forth
coming with this sort of information. My background is
mechanical engineering and i'm unaware whether this is the
content you get taught in aeronautical engineering courses?
umairzameer - do you know where i could get access to
templates or possibly typical geometry for a given type of
engine?

Thanks Again for Reading

Unfortunatelyu don't get to find templates for Proe on any forum. I used to google alot to find templates and never found anything greater than a pin,washer etc.


I agree with Ray. Stick to the solution that Ray has suggested it wikk solve loads of u r problem.

Seems a very interesting subject i had a training in an
aircraft maintenance section in our airport, and even the
material for those components ( to my knowledge they are
made from Titanium alloys ) are very confidential. But yes
you can request Rolls Royce they might help
good luck
