INTRODUCTION:

The turbofan or fanjet is a type of air breathing jet engine that is widely
used in aircraft propulsion. The word "turbofan" is a portmanteau of
"turbine" and "fan": the turbo portion refers to a gas turbine engine which
achieves mechanical energy from combustion,[1] and the fan, a ducted
fan that uses the mechanical energy from the gas turbine to force air
rearwards. Thus, whereas all the air taken in by a turbojet passes through
the combustion chamber and turbines, in a turbofan some of that air
bypasses these components. A turbofan thus can be thought of as a
turbojet being used to drive a ducted fan, with both of these contributing
to the thrust.

The ratio of the mass-flow of air bypassing the engine core to the mass-flow
of air passing through the core is referred to as the bypass ratio. The engine
produces thrust through a combination of these two portions working
together; engines that use more jet thrust relative to fan thrust are known
as low-bypass turbofans, conversely those that have considerably more fan
thrust than jet thrust are known as high-bypass. Most commercial aviation
jet engines in use today are of the high-bypass type, and most modern
military fighter engines are low -bypass. Afterburners are not used on high-
bypass turbofan engines but may be used on either low-bypass turbofan
or turbojet engines.
NEED/PURPOSE:

The turbofan engine has evolved from its introduction in the 1950s to
its current role as the primary power source for today's commercial
aviation fleet. A typical modern, high-bypass turbofan, shown in
schematic cross-section in Fig., produces thrust to power aircraft by
ingesting ambient air, compressing the air, undergoing combustion, and
expanding the hot gas through thrust-producing exhaust
nozzles (Oates, 1984). Conventional practice divides the incoming flow
into two streams: a primary or core stream, and a fan stream. The flow
of the primary stream experiences compression and expansion, as the
expansion process occurs both in the thrust-producing nozzle and,
immediately upstream of the nozzle, in power-producing turbines that
drive the compression systems of both streams. The flow of the fan
stream also undergoes compression and expansion, but in this example
stream expansion occurs only through the thrust-producing nozzle

Chances of Failure:
A common failure mode for turbine machine is high cycle of fatigue of compressor
and turbine blades due to high dynamic stress caused by blade vibration and
resonance within the operating range of machinery. Studies and investigations on
failure of turbine blades are continuing since last five decades. Some review
papers were also published during this period. The basic aim of this paper is to
present a brief review on recent studies and investigations done on failures of
turbine blades. It is not the intention of the authors to provide all the detailed
literature related with the turbine blades. However, the main emphasize is to
provide all the methodologies of failures adopted by various researches to
investigate turbine blad.

Conclusion:
Now in current scenario due increment in material cost, it is fairly clear that
material advancement will become more prevalent in the Gas Turbine Engine
industry in future. There is some need to advance the manufacturing of material
for cost reduction. The problem of oxidation, that occurs in some materials should
be avoided. Otherwise, a new coating to be applied to existing materials.
