Proceedings of Gas Turbine Materials 1972Conference Held at the Naval Ship Engineering Center,Hyattsville,Md. in October 1972,

摘要

This conference was organized to provide a forum for technically responsible representatives of government and industry to discuss the many facets of sulfidation corrosion and methods of reducing its effects. The major problem encountered in operating gas turbines in the marine environment is sulfidation, which limits engine life and restricts performance improvements. Sulfidation is also a significant problem with naval aircraft jet engines. Programs of common interest to surface ships and aircraft include accelerated salt ingestion testing, non-destructive test techniques, and reprocessing of air-cooled blades and vanes. Materials and coatings which ameliorated engine resistance to the sulfidizing environment were discussed. Testing techniques to determine sulfidation resistance and engine life were presented.
