Abstrakt: For the manufacture of blades for modern gas-turbine installations, monocrystalline alloys are used. Traditional methods for the calculation of stressed-deformed state and safety factors for these alloys developed and verified for polycrystalline materials need to be adjusted. This paper deals with methodological principles for an approach to the solving of the problem concerning a finite-element determination of the long-term static strength for cooled monocrystalline blades employed in gas-turbine installations based on the use of two different models (phenomenological and micromechanical) considering the inelastic deformation of monocrystalline superalloys. An analysis has been performed for the distribution of Schmid factors in the spherical triangle for primary and secondary octahedral and cubic slip systems. Calculations are performed using Larson-Miller's parametric dependences taking into account the crystallographic orientation of the material. A determination procedure for the anisotropy coefficients of long-term strength is described based on data for different orientations. A comparative analysis of the results of finite-element calculations made using phenomenological and micromechanical (crystallographic) creep models for the long-term static strength of cooled monocrystalline blades used in a gas-turbine engine has been performed. It is shown that the location of the most loaded sections of such a blade coincide with the results of calculations according to these models. It has been found that the micromechanical deformation model results in the obtaining of the most conservative estimate for the long-term strength of turbine blades made of monocrystalline alloys. It is shown that the calculations using models for materials with isotropic properties can produce considerable errors in determining the durability of the blades. The possibility is considered for using 1D-, 2D-, and 3D-models for turbine monocrystalline blades in the determination of their durability parameters. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
