Critical Locations

Engine rotors are one of the most critical components of a heavy duty industrial gas turbine engine, as it transfers mechanical energy from rotor blades to a generator for the production of electrical energy. In general, these are larger bolted rotors with complex geometries, which make analytical modeling of the rotor to determine its static, transient or dynamic behaviors difficult. For this purpose, powerful numerical analysis approaches, such as, the finite element method, in conjunction with high performance computers are being used to analyze the current rotor systems. The complexity in modeling bolted rotor behavior under various loadings, such as, airfoil, centrifugal and gravity loadings, including engine induced vibration is one of the main challenges of simulating the structural performance of an engine rotor. In addition, the internal structural temperature gradients that can be encountered in the transient state as a result of start-up and shutdown procedures are generally higher than those that occur in the steady-state and hence thermal shock is important factor to be considered relative to ordinary thermal stress. To address these issues, the current paper presents the steady-state & quasi-static analyses (to approximate transient responses) of two full 3-D industrial gas turbine engine rotors, SW501F & GE-7FA rotor, comprising of both compressor & turbine sections together. Full 3-D rotor analysis was carried out, since the 2-D axisymmetric model is inadequate to capture the complex geometries & out of plane behavior of the rotor. Both non-linear steady-state & transient analyses of a full gas turbine engine rotor was performed using the general purpose finite element analysis program ABAQUS. The paper presents in detail the FEA modeling technique, overall behavior of the full rotor under various loadings, as well as, the critical locations in the rotor with respect to its strength and life. The identification of these critical locations is needed to help with the repair of the existing rotors and to improve and extend the operational/service life of these rotors.

The Military

The Patriot Air Defense Missile System (formerly SAM-D) is being deployed in Europe. The powerplant supplying electricity to the radar set and to the engagement control station is DOD Model D-424A, powered by the Allison Model GT-404 industrial gas turbine (IGT) engine. Designed as a vehicular engine, the application in a generator set is an interesting one, utilizing many of the following features originally intended to enhance the performance of trucks and buses: • Dual, rotating disk regenerators dramatically improve fuel consumption by transferring heat energy from the exhaust gas stream to compressor discharge. • Power transfer, intended to provide part load fuel economy in vehicles, is modified to furnish free-shaft start-fixed shaft run in generator sets. • Free-shaft starts allow successful operation down to −50°F without auxiliary heaters. The resultant gas turbine engine driven generator set — 150 kW, transportable, skid mounted, alternating current 400 Hz, tactical — has met the military requirements for performance and reliability.
