of hours, for the crack propagation is added to the initial time (80370). The<br />

obtained results show that after 15937 running hours the crack penetrates<br />

completely the annular wall of the shaft.<br />

3. Conclusions<br />

The studies of the fatigue crack propagation lead to the following results:<br />

1. In the joint zone between the flange and the shaft body, the crack occurs<br />

after approximately 80370 running hours.<br />

2. The propagation of the fatigue cracks were obtained using the Paris law<br />

with the completion of Walker, and show that the crack reach the dimensions a<br />

= 16 mm (depth) şi 2c = 64 mm (length) after 153243 running hours. After that<br />

the propagation speed increases to a high degree and after only 159737 running<br />

hours the breakdown occur (a=150 mm and 2c= 320 mm).<br />

3. The obtained results can be used by the supervising staff in order to<br />

prescribe the intervals of periodical inspections and to avoid major damages.<br />
