Application of HOST technology to the SSME HPFTP bladeThe development of turbine blade analysis tools as they moved from research contracts under the NASA HOST (Hot Section Technology) program to a PC-based system for preliminary design and to use in evaluating the SSME HPFTP (Space Shuttle Main Engine High Pressure Fuel Turbo Pump) blade is discussed. The heat transfer and structural analysis of the blade, the development of a data base for constitutive modeling of the blade materials, including coatings, and the use of advanced nonlinear finite element methods are addressed.
