Turbinenrotor und Methode zur Reparatur eines Turbinenrotors

摘要

A method for repairing the rim of a steam turbine rotor, and a weld material for repairing such rotors. The method generally includes the steps of removing a damaged rim and its associated dovetail region, so as to form a surface (16) at the perimeter of the rim portion. A weld repair region (18) is then formed on the surface, which is machined to reconstruct the rim portion and the dovetail region (20) exclusively with the weld repair region. Thereafter, an appropriately configured blade (22) is secured to the rim portion with the dovetail region. The method is particularly intended for the repair of a steel alloy rotor, such as a NiCrMoV, NiMoV and CrMoV alloy, while the weld repair is formed with a nickel-base superalloy whose mechanical and thermal properties are compatible with the repair method and the steel alloy over a broad temperature range.
