This research investigates the use of powder technology to improve the mechanical properties of titanium alloys, particularly for aviation turbine components. It uses advanced computational modeling and simulation methods to examine the mechanical characteristics of titanium alloys made using powder metallurgy processes like powder sintering and additive manufacturing. The study evaluates the impact of process variables, powder properties, and post-processing processes on the performance of the finished titanium alloy components. The simulation of powder in aircraft engine turbine manufacturing involves creating a model of a standard engine and adding titanium powder layers to increase its aerodynamic resistance. The model is then entered into the FSI system, where aerodynamics are studied at speeds of 200, 400, and 600 km/h. The properties of Ti–6Al–4V are then applied to the turbine structure using different thicknesses of powder. The speed of a plane impacts the air flow speed and gradients of an engine turbine, causing a force on the blades. The thickness of the powder layer affects the deformations caused by air force. Powder technology offers benefits, with the 5mm layer having the highest deformation. The stress generated by the plane's force is 3.2 GPa, while the deformation value is 0.452 m at 600 km/h.
