Investigation on Grain Size Changes in Gamma Prime Precipitate on Varying Surface Location of IN738 Engine Turbine Blade

A used nickel based gas turbine blade was received and it has been previously operated for more than 52000 hours and exposed to temperature approximately 720°C. The main purpose of this project is to investigate the grain size changes in gamma prime precipitate and to identify other different pha...
