Abstrakt: The labyrinth-honeycomb seals have been widely used in aero-engine. However, radial cracks appear on labyrinth seal fins of shrouded turbine blade in use. To clarify the rubbing mode of radial crack initiation, a high-speed rubbing test bench was designed. The effects of five rubbing modes on crack initiation were studied. Through the test, it is found that cracks would be formed at the junction of the fin tip and side of the labyrinth seal fins under all five modes. When two successive rubbing modes are different, the temperature of the last rubbing can be lower than that of it alone rubbing, and simultaneous radial and axial rubbing can inhibit each other. Radial rubbing mainly affects the initiation of cracks on fin tip, while axial rubbing mainly affects the initiation of cracks on the side. Moreover, the rubbing temperature is mainly affected by radial force. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
