Abstract
A repair method is a repair method of a rotor including a rotor body extending in an axial direction about an axis and a plurality of impellers arranged in the axial direction and fixed to the rotor body, the repair method including: a step of performing welding on a repair area of the rotor body to fill a damaged portion with a welded portion; a step of performing heat treatment only on the repair area in the rotor after the welding is performed; and a step of scraping a part of the welded portion after the heat treatment is performed, to form a processing surface smoothly connected to an outer surface.
Claims4
A repair method of a rotor including a rotor body extending in an axial direction about an axis and a plurality of impellers arranged in the axial direction and fixed to the rotor body, the repair method comprising:
- a step of performing welding on a repair area of the rotor body to fill a damaged portion formed to be recessed from an outer surface of the rotor body with a welded portion;
- a step of performing annealing treatment only on the repair area in the rotor after the welding is performed;
- and
- a step of scraping a part of the welded portion after the annealing treatment is performed, to form a processing surface smoothly connected to the outer surface, wherein
- the repair area is formed in an axial end area including an end of the rotor body in the axial direction,
- the processing surface is formed at a certain distance from the axis over an entire circumference of the rotor body, and
- the annealing treatment comprises:
- winding a heater around only the repair area;
- winding a heat insulating material to cover the repair area together with the heater;
- and
- performing annealing only on the repair area over an entire circumference in a state in which the heater and the heat insulating material are attached to the repair area including the welded portion.
