- Thermal-mechanical fatigue (TMF) cracking is the primary mode of mechanical failure of first stage blades in gas turbines used for electric power generation. Because of the high replacement costs of these superalloy components, it is important that accurate predictions of TMF life be made so that blades can be reconditioned before cracks initiate and propagate beyond repair limits. This paper describes the development of a TMF life prediction methodology for first stage blades, which is part of a Life Management System developed by the Electric Power Research Institute (EPRI)
