Fem model for calculation of hydro turbine shaft
(Univ Novi Sad, Fac Tech Sci, Adeko, Novi Sad, 2010)
This paper describes the real problem calculation of stress state of hydro turbine shaft with crack appearance on shaft-flange radii. Finite element method (FEM) is used for calculation of shaft stress state and shaft ...
HETRA experiment for investigation of heat removal from the first wall of helium-cooled-pebble-bed test blanket module
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2011)
This paper presents an experimental test section which has been developed at the Institute for Neutron Physics and Reactor Technique in Karlsruhe Institute of Technology for investigations of heat removal from the first ...
Mock-up testing facilities and qualification strategy for EU ITER TBMs
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2010)
European test blanket modules (TBM) for both European blanket concepts, namely the Helium Cooled Lithium Lead (HCLL) and the Helium Cooled Pebble Bed (HCPB), and their auxiliary systems have been designed in the last years. ...
Failure analysis of hydraulic turbine shaft
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2012)
This paper describes the analysis of major failure of 28 MW horizontal hydro turbine shaft. The analysis of load carrying capacity of critical radius and fractography analysis are presented. Special emphasize is on ...
Explicit parametric method for optimal spur gear tooth profile definition
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, 2013)
The gear tooth profile has an immense effect on the main operating parameters of gear pairs (load capacity, working life, efficiency, vibrations, etc). In current engineering research and practice, there is a strong need ...
Quantification of stress raiser influence on decrease of machine parts fatigue life
(Univ Novi Sad, Fac Tech Sci, Adeko, Novi Sad, 2012)
This paper displays the usage of Theory of Critical Distances (TCD) in the prediction of high-cycle fatigue behaviour in machine parts and systems. It is possible to gain real overview of stresses of machine parts by Finite ...
Prediction of crack initiation in spur gear contact zone
(Univ Novi Sad, Fac Tech Sci, Adeko, Novi Sad, 2012)
The objective of this paper is to give a new viewpoint in contact fatigue prediction in the case of high-cycle fatigue. The presented research is based on up-to-date methods and multidisciplinary approach, and enables ...
The fundamental role of fluid dynamic analyses in the design of the solid EU Test Blanket Module
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2012)
In the frame of the activities of the European Test Blanket Module Consortium of Associates, the Helium Cooled Pebble Bed Test Blanket Module (HCPB TBM), the so-called solid TBM, is developed in Karlsruhe Institute of ...
The influence of corrosion on stress concentration factor at shaft to flange radius
(Springer Netherlands, 2013)
This paper describes the influence of corrosion on stress concentration factor and crack initiation at shaft-flange transition section. The real turbine shaft failure case study is used for research. This case study and ...
Thermal-hydraulics of helium cooled First Wall channels and scoping investigations on performance improvement by application of ribs and mixing devices
(Elsevier Science Sa, Lausanne, 2016)
The first wall (FW) of DEMO is a component with high thermal loads. The cooling of the FW has to comply with the material's upper and lower temperature limits and requirements from stress assessment, like low temperature ...
