Department of Mechanical Engineering at College of Engineering, University of Mosul, held a master\u2019s thesis defense for the thesis titled \u201cThe Effect of Centrifugal Forces of Gas Turbine Blades on Stress Concentration,\u201d<\/strong> presented by (Mohammed Talal Mohammed) on Monday, June 2, 2025<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The session was attended by Asst. Prof. Dr. Omar Mohammed Hamdoon<\/strong>, Dean of College of Engineering, and Asst. Prof. Dr. Ayman Talib Hameed<\/strong>, Assistant Dean for Scientific Affairs.<\/p>\n

The thesis focused on a theoretical and numerical analysis<\/strong> of the influence of centrifugal and thermal stresses<\/strong> on gas turbine blades at the Mosul Power Plant, utilizing ANSYS 2024<\/strong> software. A realistic model of the blade was constructed, and its behavior was analyzed at various rotational speeds (5100, 7000, and 9000 RPM).<\/p>\n

The results demonstrated that centrifugal forces had the most significant impact on stress distribution<\/strong>, particularly at the blade root<\/strong>. It was also shown that deformations and equivalent stresses increased<\/strong> as the rotational speed increased. The study indicated that thermal stresses further contribute<\/strong> to the overall loading on the blade; however, at 5100 RPM, the blade remains within the elastic range<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The thesis concluded that higher speeds lead to a substantial increase in deformation and stresses<\/strong>, reducing the safety factor and increasing the risk of failure. Therefore, the research recommended adherence to the safe operational speed of 5100 RPM<\/strong> to ensure the structural integrity and performance efficiency of the blades.<\/p>\n
