Our failure analysis services identify root causes of turbine issues, providing customized strategies to prevent future breakdowns and extend component life. Utilizing advanced tools for stress analysis, flow dynamics, and rotor optimization, we ensure your gas turbine operates at peak performance.
At Liburdi, we specialize in maximizing the service life of your hot gas path components through advanced metallurgical examination. Our process goes beyond simple damage assessment—we quantify material degradation and deliver precise, cost-effective recommendations for repair or replacement. With industry-leading techniques featured in "Gas Turbine Blade Life Assessment and Repair Guide," we set the standard for turbine reliability and performance. Continuously refining our methods, we provide actionable insights that save costs, extend component life, and ensure optimal turbine operation.
Liburdi sets a new standard in gas turbine repair and maintenance with a cutting-edge approach to disc life assessment. While blades and vanes face extreme heat and corrosion, turbine discs endure intense stress loads that are critical to reliable operation. Our advanced mechanical design methodology, featuring finite element stress analysis, provides precise calculations of disc life expectancy—outperforming outdated life estimation methods. By choosing Liburdi, you ensure accurate insights that extend turbine component life, reduce maintenance costs, and improve the long-term reliability of your gas turbine systems.
For the same reasons that it’s wise to get a regular check up with your doctor, a life analysis is an evidence-based approach to determination of:
Typically, only a single part is required for destructive testing; a blade which has irreparable damage can be selected to avoid destruction of another wise repairable blade. Analysis of additional blades may be necessary if a blade set has a multiple populations, but only if the populations of a similar vintage – analysis of the oldest blade group can often suffice.
Turbine disks operate at temperatures below which metallurgical degradation is evident. Cracks can develop over time, however, so determining safe operating intervals beyond OEM life limits requires determination of the disks operating conditions (stress and temperature) through finite element analysis (FEA) and estimations of cracks growth rates under these conditions, using the principals of fracture mechanics. Safe operating intervals can then be established, based on the expected time for cracks to grow from a detectable size to a critical size.
