Causes and Prevention of Blade Erosion in High-Temperature Turbine Environments

There are many reasons for blade erosion, primarily due to harsh conditions within a turbine. Turbines run at extremely high temperatures, occasionally exceeding 1,000 degrees. 

Prevent Blade Erosion 

Preventing blade erosion is not simple, but there are clear steps to take particularly for customers who purchases turbines in bulk. First, good and heat-resistant materials are key. At O.B.T., we fabricate blades out of special metals that can tolerate the tremendous heat and erosion more effectively than normal steels.  

Where to Find Quality Erosion-Resistant Turbine Blades

These blades spin quickly and encounter heat, dust and tiny particles that wears them away. This types of wearing down is known as blade erosion and can causes the turbines to become less safe, as well as less efficient. That’s why it is very important to find strong steam turbine blade. 

Wholesale

Blade erosion is a key issue in power generations turbines, but wholesale buyers need to understand that well. Turbines operate by rapidly spinning blades to generate power. These gas turbine rotor blades have a hards time in very hot areas. Dust, sand and minuscule particles in the air battered at the blades over and over. 

Where Do You Find Cutting-Edge Coatings 

Blades in a turbine face very harsh conditions inside the nozzle especially when there is high temperature. One of the most effective methods for minimizing erosion on these blades is inputting coatings. These coatings functions much like a protective shield for the blades.  

Conclusion

Finding quality coatings is more than just the product. You also needs a supplier who can properly apply the coatings and provide advices on how to preserve protection of your rotor turbine blades. O.B.T offers a full service for coating application inseam, and is able to recommend the most suitable applications method to customers.
