Aging and lifetime management of shipboard gas turbine units

Abstract

There the problems concerning estimation of the reliability of the ship's gas turbine unit by expert methods, as well as finding the level of risk, which accompanies the ship's permission to sail were considered in the work. In addition, to extend the timelife of gas turbine com-ponents the protective erosion coatings and damping coatings for gas turbine blades were proposed.
