Implications of engineʹs deterioration upon an aero-engine HP turbine bladeʹs thermal fatigue life

Possessing a better knowledge of the impacts of engine deterioration upon an aircraftʹs performance as well as its fuel and component life usage, helps the users make wiser management decisions and hence achieve improved engine utilization. For a military aircraft, using a computer performance simulation, the consequences of engine deterioration on a high pressure turbine bladeʹs thermal fatigue life are predicted.
