Reliability Applied on Frequency Tests of Turbocharger Blades 982875

The main objective of this work is the analysis of the reliability of mechanical components, as well as its application in failure tests commonly used in the practice, in this case, tests for obtaining and verification of the natural frequency associated to the first vibrational mode of turbocharger blades. Of the statistical theory applied to tests of components, it was made a rising of the types of used tests and its application with respect to the sampling of the population in study. Soon after, an analysis is proceeded on correlation and regression of the obtained data of the tests and of the adjustment of curves. Experimental tests were accomplished in the bank of tests of Schwitzer in two different models of turbocharger, and mensured the natural frequencies in a certain number of samples, all of them with the same number of blades..
