Introduction

Heavy-duty gas turbines are the core power equipment of energy efficient conversion and clean utilization systems and are widely used in power generation, distributed energy and electricity.

Heavy-duty gas turbine castings and forgings are the most important products of heavy-duty gas turbines.

The development foundation of the industry, with the development of heavy-duty gas turbine industry, its castings and forgings have made breakthroughs and formed a series of material systems.

To promote common benefits, it is necessary to propose material selection, ordering, manufacturing, testing methods and inspection rules for large castings and forgings used in heavy-duty gas turbines.

GB/T 45981 "Large Castings and Forgings for Heavy-Duty Gas Turbines" was formulated for this purpose.

Provide a basis for manufacturing and technical exchanges, and cultivate and enhance the material supporting capabilities of the heavy-duty gas turbine industry.

Due to the differences in materials, manufacturing and supply chains of components, GB/T 45981 is intended to consist of three parts.

— Part 1: Steel free forgings. The purpose is to standardize the shaft head, center tie rod, compressor and turbine wheel for heavy-duty gas turbines Manufacturing of large steel free forgings.

— Part 2: High-temperature alloy die forgings. The purpose is to standardize high-temperature alloy large die forgings and tie rod forgings for heavy-duty gas turbines Manufacturing of parts.

— Part 3: Steel castings. The purpose is to standardize heavy-duty gas turbines gravity cast using sand molds or molds with thermal conductivity equivalent to sand molds Used in the manufacture of large steel castings.
