Abstract

See full text

An apparatus for testing failure of a material used in a jet engine, and more particularly to an apparatus that uses one or more miniature jet engine components made from a material used in a full-size jet engine and desired to be tested. The apparatus permits easy removal and disassembly of a jet engine mounted thereon as well as real-time measurements of run-time parameters. The methods and apparatus provide for predicting and analyzing failure by a number of fatigue-related mechanisms including creep, fatigue, crack growth, foreign object damage, fretting, erosion, and stress corrosion. The apparatus also permits testing of a component placed in the exhaust gases of a jet engine mounted therein.
