Turbine Engine Gas Path Failure Survey.

Abstract

A survey of gas path component turbine engine failures for a cross-section of current turbine engines in the U.S. Air Force inventory is presented in this report. Detailed descriptions of failure modes extracted from engine overhaul facility records are provided along with assessments of the utility of particle emissions in the prediction of these gas path failures or potential failures.
