Turbine Blading

Abstract This paper reports on the application of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry (ESPI) technique in vibration measurement of turbine blading. Using the time-averaged mode of ESPI, the first six modes of a turbocharger blade with airfoil profile were identified. The effect of the complicated profile of the blade was established by studying simplified model blades. Coupled modes were identified and successfully separated. Experimental results are compared with those obtained using finite element analysis.

Element Analysis

In this paper, two experimental techniques, Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry and Stroboscopic Interferometry, and two different finite element analysis packages are used to measure or to analyze the frequencies and mode shapes of a micromachined, cross-shaped torsion structure. Four sets of modal data are compared and shown having a significant discrepancy in their frequency values, although their mode shapes are quite consistent. Inconsistency in the frequency results due to erroneous inputs of geometrical and material parameters to the finite element analysis can be salvaged by applying the finite element model updating procedure. Two updating cases show that the optimization sequences converge quickly and significant improvements in frequency prediction are achieved. With the inclusion of the thickness parameter, the second case yields a maximum of under 0.4% in frequency difference, and all parameters attain more reliable updated values.

Abstract Phenol-resorcinol-formaldehyde (PRF) and one-component polyurethane (PUR) resins were used to manufacture single lap joint samples corresponding to EN 302-1. 3D electronic speckle pattern interferometry (ESPI), which enables measurement of spatial displacement of less than 0.1 μm, was used during tensile shear experiments to observe full-field in-plane and out-of-plane deformation of the lap joint samples and to detect strain concentrations in the vicinity of glue lines. Finite element analysis was performed to validate ESPI measurements. In general, ESPI measurements showed that in a lap joint experiment a very small volume of material close to the ends of the overlapping area is highly strained. ESPI and finite element analysis pointed out that PUR glue lines are characterised by much higher shear deformations than PRF glue lines, especially at the ends of the overlapping area. However, due to the lower Young's modulus of PUR resin compared to PRF, higher shear strains but lower shear stress concentrations can be expected in PUR, which was confirmed by the FE model.

Small Wind Turbine

In this article, three small wind turbine blades of different materials were manufactured. Finite element analysis was carried out using finite element software ANSYS 14.5 on modeled blades of National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics 4412 airfoil profile. From finite element analysis, first, two flap-wise natural frequencies and mode shapes of three different blades are obtained. Experimental vibration analysis of manufactured blades was carried out using fast Fourier transform analyzer to find the first two flap-wise natural frequencies. Finally, the results obtained from the finite element analysis and experimental test of three blades are compared. Based on vibration analysis, we found that the natural frequency of glass fiber reinforced plastic blade reinforced with aluminum sheet metal (small) strips increases compared with the remaining blades. An increase in the natural frequency indicates an increase in the stiffness of blade.

This article focuses on various features of a finite element analysis (FEA) program designed by IDIADA, a Barcelona-based company providing design, engineering, testing, and homologation services to the automotive industry. The program has been designed as a solution to the problem of squeaks and rattles in an automobile. FEA software used by engineers from automotive testing company IDIADA detects potential automotive noise. The company uses Abaqus Unified Finite Element Analysis from Dassault Systèmes’ brand Simulia. The team delivered a paper at the Simulia Customer Conference in Barcelona in May 2011 to present the latest improvements in their methodology, applied to rattle in a car instrument panel and correlated with real-world testing. Research has shown that a standard noise-and-vibration analysis method alone can’t model, or predict, the contact that will result in a rattle. The engineers need to come up with a simulation that can accommodate both frequency for noise and vibration and contact for squeak and rattle.

Finite element analysis of honeycomb sandwich panel has been performed by modeling the structure through three different approaches. Continuum properties are calculated through analytical solution and verified through FE analysis of bare core. In addition to that the thickness of core has also been varied in all the three approaches in order to study its effect on vibration analysis of sandwich structure.
