The major components of a turbocharger are the compressor, bearing housing and turbine. In this paper, different types of failures which occur in turbine wheel are discussed and some remedies to reduce the failures are presented. It is seen that the High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) is a major cause for the failure of turbine wheel blades. The ways to predict HCF risk to failure and some of the practices to reduce them are also discussed. With the reduction in HCF risk of failure, the life of turbine wheel can be increased. At the earliest phase of design, it is necessary to analyze HCF phenomenon which makes the design of the turbine efficient, reliable and robust.
