This paper presents an analysis of the steady-state unbalance response of a dual-rotor gas turbine engine with a flexible intershaft squeeze film damper using a simplified transfer matrix method. The simplified transfer matrix method is convenient for the evaluation of the critical speed and response of the rotor system with various supports, shaft coupling, intershaft bearing, etc. The steady-state unbalance response of the rotor system is calculated for different shaft rotation speeds. The damping effects of an intershaft squeeze film damper with different radial clearances under various levels of rotor unbalance are investigated.

Abstract A nonlinear multi-degree-of-freedom dynamic model of a coupled dual-rotor system with an intershaft bearing and uncentralized squeeze film damper is established by using finite element method. Based on the model, the critical speed characteristic diagram and vibration modes of the system were calculated. The steady-state unbalance response is obtained by using Newmark-β algorithm. The numerical results show the effect of SFD position in the dual-rotor system on response amplitude. It is found that with the decrease of radial clearance and the increase of length-diameter ratio and lubricating oil viscosity, the damping effect of SFD is enhanced and the bistable state phenomenon can be suppressed. The transient response of the system in case of sudden unbalance occurring at the fan was simulated by applying a step function. It is demonstrated that the SFD can effectively reduce the duration and maximum amplitude of the transient process, but at certain speeds, the SFD will increase the amplitude after the system returns to steady state, the damping effect on the transient response is also enhanced with the increase of length-diameter and the decrease of radial clearance, and with the increase of the sudden unbalance value, the response is more likely to stabilized at the high amplitude state of the bistable state.

In this paper, a new electro-rheological multi-layer squeeze film damper (ERMSFD in short) is designed first and the constitutional Reynolds equation is established. Then the behavior of the rotor system is analyzed, the vibration around the first critical speed is suppressed and an on/off control is proposed to control the large amplitude around the first critical speed. A control method is used to suppress the sudden unbalance response. Finally, experiments are carried out to investigate the behavior of the rotor system to prove the effectiveness of the ER damper to suppress the vibration around the critical speed and the sudden unbalance response.

Damper Design

In this paper results of rotordynamic response and transient tests of a novel, high load squeeze film damper design, are presented. The spiral foil multi-squeeze film damper has been previously shown to provide two to four fold or larger increases in damping levels without resorting to significantly decreased damper clearances or increased lengths. By operating with a total clearance of approximately twice conventional designs, the non-linearities associated with high eccentricity operation are avoided. Rotordynamic tests with a dual squeeze film configuration were completed. As a part of the overall testing program, a flexible rotor system was subjected to high steady state imbalance levels and transient simulated bladeloss events for up to 0.254 mm (0.01 in) mass c.g offset or 180 gm-cm (2.5 oz-in) imbalance. The spiral foil multi-squeeze film damper demonstrated that the steady state imbalance and simulated bladeloss transient response of a flexible rotor operating above its first bending critical speed could be readily controlled. Rotor system imbalance sensitivity and logarithmic decrement are presented showing the characteristics of the system with the damper installed. The ability to accommodate high steady state and transient imbalance conditions make this damper well suited to a wide range of rotating machinery, including aircraft gas turbine engines.

The Time Domain

This work develops a finite element based multi-mass flexible rotor model for theoretical investigation of the influence of the squeeze film damper lubricant inertia on the unbalance-induced steady-state and transient vibration amplitudes of high speed turbomachinery. The rotordynamic model is developed by applying the principles of finite element analysis to discretize the rotor components, including the rotor shaft and disk, into local elements with mass, stiffness, and gyroscopic matrices. Subsequently, the local matrices are assembled together to develop the global model of the rotordynamic system. The influence of squeeze film damper lubricant inertia is incorporated into the model by using short-length cavitated damper models with retaining springs executing circular-centered orbits. Additionally, the rotordynamic model incorporating the nonlinear squeeze film damper models is iteratively solved in the time domain by applying a predictor-corrector transient modal integration numerical method and the steady-state and transient motions of the rotor system are investigated under different rotor and squeeze film damper parameters. The results of the study verify the substantial influence of squeeze film damper lubricant inertia on attenuating the vibrations of high-speed turbomachinery. Furthermore, the developed rotordynamic model delivers an efficient and powerful platform for the analysis of high-speed turbomachinery, including jet engines and gas turbines.
