Selecting Appropriate Metallic Alloy for Marine Gas Turbine Engine Compressor Components
Description
Metallic alloys with excellent structural and chemical properties play a significant role in a variety of applications. The selection of suitable metallic materials for marine gas turbine engine components is a real challenge as the surrounding environment is highly corrosive and the components have to function for a designed period at varied elevated temperatures. This chapter explains the selection of a suitable metallic alloy for marine gas turbine engine compressor section components based on extensive experimental data on two titanium‐based alloys 6242 and IMI 834 under simulated marine gas turbine engine environmental conditions. The results revealed that 6242 exhibits superior performance over IMI 834. Therefore, the titanium alloy 6242 in association with appropriate protective coating is recommended to fabricate components intended to use for marine gas turbine engine compressor section applications.
