The unstable phenomena of thin cylindrical shells subjected to annular axial flow are investigated. In this paper, the analytical model is composed of an elastic axisymmetric shell and a rigid one which are arranged co-axially. Considering the fluid structure interaction between shells and fluid flowing through an annular narrow passage, the coupled equation of motion is derived using Flu¨gge’s shell theory and Navier-Stokes equations. The unstable phenomena of thin cylindrical shells are clarified by using the root locus based on the complex eigenvalue analysis. The numerical parameter studies on the shells with a freely supported end and a rigid one, and with both simply supported ends, are performed taking the dimensins of shells, the characteristics of flowing fluid so on as parameters. The influence of these parameters on the threshold of instability of the coupled vibration between thin cylindrical shells and annular axial flowing fluid are investigated and discussed.

Leakage-flow-induced vibration for a relatively short gap is studied analytically to provide useful information to design structures that include a leakage flow. The relationship between the analysis of a one-dimensional system and that of an annular gap is explained first. Then, the mechanism of flutter-type instability is reproduced from previous study after correcting an error. Finally, the self-excited vibration potential of an engineering system is shown from sample calculations. It is shown that an axial flow becomes dominant in the short-gap approximation, and in this case, the analysis of a one-dimensional flow can be expanded to that of an annular flow. The result that negative damping can occur in the case of a divergent passage owing to the delay induced by fluid inertia was obtained from a previous study. It was suggested analytically that the damping ratio could become negative and its absolute value could become more than 10% in a system that is frequently encountered in a plant, if the natural frequency decreases. The value could be sufficient to generate self-excited vibration.

Evaluation methodologies for the flow-induced vibration of an elastic beam subjected to an axial flow confined in a narrow passage are reported. In this paper, by using the analytical method already proposed by the author, a parameter study is performed on the dynamic stability of an elastic beam subjected to axial flow confined a narrow passage. The effects of support conditions of structures, structural damping, and fluid characteristics on the dynamic stability are clarified. Especially, paying attention on the vicinity of critical velocity, the effects of stabilization or destabilization on flutter and divergence are investigated by changing fluid viscosity and structural damping.

Flow induced vibration due to the dynamics of rotor-stator interaction in an axial-flow pump is one of the most damaging vibration sources to the pump components, attached pipelines, and equipment. Three-dimensional unsteady numerical simulations were conducted on the complex turbulent flow field in an axial-flow water pump, in order to investigate the flow induced vibration problem. The shear stress transport (SST) k-ω model was employed in the numerical simulations. The fast Fourier transform technique was adopted to process the obtained fluctuating pressure signals. The characteristics of pressure fluctuations acting on the impeller were then investigated. The spectra of pressure fluctuations were predicted. The dominant frequencies at the locations of impeller inlet, impeller outlet, and impeller blade surface are all 198 Hz (4 times of the rotation frequency 49.5 Hz), which indicates that the dominant frequency is in good agreement with the blade passing frequency (BPF). The first BPF dominates the frequency spectrum for all monitoring locations inside the pump.

In this paper, the stability of a thin cylindrical shell subjected to axial leakage flow is discussed. In this paper, the first part of a study of the axial leakage flow-induced vibration of a thin cylindrical shell, we focus on axisymmetric vibration, that is, the ringlike vibration of a shell. The coupled equations between a shell and a fluid are obtained by using the Donnell’s shell theory and the Navier-Stokes equation. The added mass, added damping and added stiffness matrices in the coupled equations are described by utilizing unsteady fluid forces on a shell. The influence of the axial flow velocity on the unstable phenomena is clarified concerning axisymmetric vibration mode of shell. The numerical calculations are performed taking the dimensions of shell and fluid as parameters.

Two-phase flow exists in many industrial components. To avoid costly vibration problems, sound technology in the area of two-phase flow-induced vibration is required. This paper is an overview of the principal mechanisms governing vibration in two-phase flow. Dynamic parameters such as hydrodynamic mass and damping are discussed. Vibration excitation mechanisms in axial flow are outlined. These include fluidelastic instability, phase-change noise, and random excitation. Vibration excitation mechanisms in cross-flow, such as fluidelastic instability, periodic wake shedding, and random excitation, are reviewed.
