Abstract (en)

An assembly method for connecting a plurality of rotor blades (51) to a rotor disc (35) of a rotary turbomachine (10) comprises the steps of: - providing heat to the pressure side (59) or to the suction side (57) of at least one blade of the plurality of blades for rotating at least a radial section (70) of the blade about a radial direction of the blade, the radial direction extending between a root and a tip of the blade, the radial section (70) being radially distanced from a the root portion (65) or from a tip portion (67) of the blade (51), - sliding the root portion (65) of the blade (51) inside a respective coupling portion (75) of the rotor disc (35). A thermal device (100) is also disclosed for providing heat to the rotor blades (51) to a rotor disc (35) of a rotary turbomachine (10), in order to promote the assembly of the rotor blades (51) into the rotor disc (35).
