Abstract

In the present work, design modification and stress analysis of blade and stator assembly for turbines using pin and spacer method are carried out. The locker pins are a kind of small device that locks the bucket and inserted them into the grooves. To avoid centrifugal force, a spacer is placed between tangential blades that make more comfort. Design calculations are calculated and the obtained stresses and simulations are performed by using commercial finite element analysis software ANSYS 14.5. Observed stresses on space and locker pins are much below the yield stress of the material.
