🔍 Key Concepts

• Different mechanical attachment methods used for turbine blades (retaining ring, fir‑tree, pinning, locking tab) • How stress distribution and vibration affect blade roots and rotor disks in high‑speed turbines • Why ease of replacement, resistance to fatigue, and secure locking are important for blade attachments

💭 Think About

• Which design gives the best distribution of stress at the blade root instead of concentrating it at one point? • Which attachment type is commonly used in modern high‑speed gas/steam turbines where thermal cycling and centrifugal forces are very high? • Which method allows secure holding of the blade while still permitting some flexibility and thermal expansion without damaging the disk or blade root?

✅ Before You Answer

• Compare which designs are best at handling high cyclic stresses and vibration without cracking the disk or blade root • Think about which design is standard in modern turbine engineering practice, not just acceptable in theory • Eliminate any design that mainly serves as a secondary locking or safety feature rather than the primary load‑carrying attachment
