Thermal fatigue may develop in piping elbow with high temperature stratified flow. To prevent the fatigue damage by stratified flow, it is important to know the distribution of thermal stress and temperature history in a pipe. In this study, heat conduction inverse analysis method for piping elbow was developed to estimate the temperature history and thermal stress distribution on the inner surface from the outer surface temperature history. In the inverse analysis method, the inner surface temperature was estimated by using the transfer function database which interrelates the inner surface temperature with the outer surface temperature. Transfer function database was calculated by FE analysis in advance. For some patterns of the temperature history, inverse analysis simulations were made. It was found that the inner surface temperature history was estimated with high accuracy.

Thermal stress is one of the most important monitoring parameters in turbine rotors during the transition of work conditions. It has significant influence on the safety and life of turbine rotors. In order to obtain the thermal stress in turbine rotors during the transition process conveniently, the transient heat conduction process in typical structures of turbine rotors is analyzed based on heat conduction equation and finite element simulation. According to thermomechanical principle, thermal stress distributions in the typical structures of turbine rotor are investigated. The solutions of thermal stress in a solid cylinder are derived. A corner formed by shaft and disc is modeled and analyzed by finite element method, and the influences of structure parameters on thermal stresses are studied. The results on thermal stresses in cylinder and corner structures could provide a continent method to estimate thermal stress of turbine rotor on early design stage.
