Fretting in aircraft turbine enginesThe problems created by fretting in turbine engines are discussed. The areas of greatest wear identified with the fan, compressor, and turbine blade mountings being the most critical items. Various methods for reducing or eliminating fretting in a turbine engine are described. Vacuum deposition of coatings by sputtering and ion plating are recommended as an economic method of applying thin films to inhibit fretting.
