Abstract: The present work was focused on modification of the disc model for over speed burst margin with thermal load and disc speed correction and verify the same with FE model. Hoop stress, radial stress and burst margin were carried out at different speed and thermal loading conditions using both finite element and mathematical model. Investigations are performed based on non-linear problem employing linear analysis tool ANSYS 12.0. A non-linear finite element method was utilized to determine the stress state of the disc / blade segment under operating conditions. In both cases (FE and mathematical model) the numerical burst rotation rate, associated with the loss of stability of the structure, is found to be in good agreement with the each other.
