This study proposes a frequency domain-based model reduction method for the dynamic model reduction problem of mistuned blisks, which improves calculation efficiency while ensuring accuracy. The results show that the method outperforms other reduction methods in terms of modal characteristics and response characteristics.
Aiming at the problem of dynamic model reduction of mistuned blisks, this study proposes a model reduction method based on the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) in the frequency domain and establishes the reduced-order model (ROM). The mistuning amount of blisk is characterized as generalized mistuned load, and then a mistuned load interpolation algorithm is introduced to solve the forced vibration response. POD ROM is used to analyze the modal characteristics and vibration response characteristics of a mistuned blisk with 20 sectors, and the results are compared with the full-order model (FOM) and the subset nominal mode (SNM) reduced model. The results show that the model reduction method proposed in this paper can improve the calculation efficiency while ensuring calculation accuracy. In the aspect of modal characteristics of the mistuned blisk, its calculation accuracy is better than the SNM model reduction method, the calculation error of natural frequency is less than 0.05%, and the spatial distribution characteristics of mistuned modes are closer to the results of FOM. In terms of response characteristics, the forced response accuracy is affected by the integration time step and relaxation factor, and the steady-state amplitude error in the time domain can be controlled below 5%.

Investigation on pressure pulsation and modal behavior of the impeller in a nuclear reactor coolant pump

Qiang Zhou, Xinwei Zhao, Lin Pei, Hongkun Li

Summary: This study investigated the pressure pulsation and modal properties of a scaled RCP impeller using experimental and numerical methods. It was found that pressure pulsation on the impeller blade is mainly dominated by the impeller rotating frequency, the vane passing frequency, and the double blade-passing frequency. The impeller's natural frequencies were reduced by 31.63% to 37.77% due to the added mass effect of the fluid, but there is no risk of resonance in the impeller.

Xinwei Zhao, Hongkun Li, Shuhua Yang, Zhenfang Fan, Yang Wang

Summary: This study enhances the understanding of the IGV preswirl effect and blade response through experimental data, finding that blade response increases with larger positive regulation and significant vibration can occur under specific operating conditions. This increase is attributed to changes in aerodynamic loading due to enhanced distortion of the inlet flow.

Time-Frequency Sparse Reconstruction of Non-Uniform Sampling for Non-Stationary Signal

Jiannan Dong, Hongkun Li, Zhenfang Fan, Xinwei Zhao

Summary: In this article, the reconstruction of time-frequency characteristics of sparse multi-band signals using the discrete multi-coset sampling (DMCS) model was addressed. The proposed method involves the utilization of a multi-coset sliding window (MCSW) for locally windowing the discrete multi-coset sampling sequence, leading to optimal time-frequency reconstruction of the original signal. Numerical simulations demonstrated the feasibility of the method, which is significant for sub-Nyquist sampling technique research and development.

Experimental Investigation on the Mechanism of Impeller Synchronous and Nonsynchronous Vibrations in an Industrial Centrifugal Compressor

Hongkun Li, Xinwei Zhao, Qiang Zhou, Shuhua Yang, Xiaowen Zhang

Summary: Understanding the fluid-structure interaction phenomena in centrifugal compressors is crucial for impeller structural integrity design. In this study, a single-stage centrifugal compressor representative of industrial architecture was investigated experimentally to enhance the understanding of blade vibration in a realistic flow environment. The findings reveal that the impeller first bending mode exhibits traveling wave response characteristic only within a specific frequency band. Moreover, unexpected nonsynchronous vibrations were observed when operating near the flow instability boundary. These results contribute to a deep understanding of aeroelastic phenomena in industrial centrifugal compressors and have implications for aeroelastic design and numerical predictions near stall.

A novel method for identification of synchronous resonance frequency of blades based on random arrangement of tip-timing probes

Hongkun Li, Jiannan Dong, Zhenfang Fan, Daitong Wei, Yugang Chen

Summary: In this paper, a novel multiscale cyclic-reverse optimized arrangement (MC-ROA) method based on the random arrangement of tip-timing probes is proposed to achieve frequency identification of undersampled signals in synchronous resonance. The method builds a sparse model for frequency recovery and utilizes the subspace pursuit (SP) algorithm of compressive sensing (CS) for frequency recovery. By adjusting the number of probes and selecting data probes cyclically under random arrangement, multiple sets of solutions are obtained. The target frequency weights are used to determine the optimal recovery frequency, overcoming the limitations of the restricted isometry property (RIP) of the parameterized compression matrix. BTT experiments are conducted to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method.

An improved blade vibration difference-based two-parameter plot method for synchronous vibration parameter identification of rotating blades

Hongkun Li, Zhenfang Fan, Jiannan Dong, Yugang Chen, Hongwei Cao, Daitong Wei

Summary: Synchronous vibration parameter identification is crucial for monitoring and managing the status of rotating blades. The traditional two-parameter plot method has limitations in accuracy due to measurement errors and restrictions in recognizing engine order. This study presents an improved method called blade vibration difference-based two-parameter plot, which utilizes arrival and departure times of blades to establish differences in vibration. The reliability and feasibility of this method are verified through theoretical deduction, simulation analysis, and experimental research. The engine order obtained by this method matches well with strain results and the identified amplitude deviates from existing methods by only 6.01 percent.
