Reduced Order Methods

Finite element-based reduced order methods are presented with application to the prediction of rotating mistuned bladed disk forced response. These methods have already been applied to tuned non-rotating models having cyclic symmetry. The aim is to reduce significantly the number of interface co-ordinates, which can be very important in classical component mode synthesis methods. The approach is based on the use of the interface modes which result from a static condensation of the whole structure on the whole interface. A first implementation of this procedure and numerical results are presented.

The complex architecture of aircraft engines requires demanding computational efforts when the dynamic coupling of their components has to be predicted. For this reason, numerically efficient reduced-order models (ROM) have been developed with the aim of performing modal analyses and forced response computations on complex multistage assemblies being computationally fast. In this paper, the flange joint connecting two turbine disks of a multistage assembly is studied as a source of nonlinearities due to friction damping occurring at the joint contact interface. An analytic contact model is proposed to calculate the local microslip based on the different deformations that the two flanges in contact take during vibration. The model is first introduced using a simple geometry representing two flanges in contact, and then, it is applied to a reduced finite element model in order to calculate the nonlinear forced response.

A new reduced order modeling technique for nonlinear vibration analysis of mistuned bladed disks with shrouds is presented. The developed reduction technique employs two component mode synthesis methods, namely, the Craig-Bampton (CB) method followed by a modal synthesis based on loaded interface (LI) modeshapes (Benfield and Hruda). In the new formulation, the fundamental sector is divided into blade and disk components. The CB method is applied to the blade, where nodes lying on shroud contact surfaces and blade–disk interfaces are retained as master nodes, while modal reductions are performed on the disk sector with LIs. The use of LI component modes allows removing the blade–disk interface nodes from the set of master nodes retained in the reduced model. The result is a much more reduced order model (ROM) with no need to apply any secondary reduction. In the paper, it is shown that the ROM of the mistuned bladed disk can be obtained with only single-sector calculation, so that the full finite element model of the entire bladed disk is not necessary. Furthermore, with the described approach, it is possible to introduce the blade frequency mistuning directly into the reduced model. The nonlinear forced response is computed using the harmonic balance method and alternating frequency/time domain approach. Numerical simulations revealed the accuracy, efficiency, and reliability of the new developed technique for nonlinear vibration analysis of mistuned bladed disks with shroud friction contacts.

Abstract Several component mode synthesis methods with fixed, free and hybrid interface are used to compute the eigen solutions and the frequency response of a cyclic structure in combination with the cyclic symmetry properties. In particular, a procedure based on the use of a truncated basis of interface modes has been developed to reduce the number of interface coordinates in the component mode synthesis methods. Both classical and new methods provide very good results and are more efficient than the use of the cyclic symmetry properties only or the combination of the cyclic symmetry with the modal projection method for computing the forced response. For the eigen solutions, the free interface methods are more accurate than the fixed and the hybrid interface methods.

Fixed Interface

A new fixed interface component mode synthesis method using partial interface modes is presented. Partial interface modes are the structure normal modes which result from the static condensation of the structure to the interface between the substructures and which are clamped at a part of this interface. This method is the generalization of the classical component mode synthesis method which keeps all the interface physical displacements in the assembled reduced system and the method using interface modes which eliminates all of them. It allows one to reduce the number of the interface generalized coordinates and at the same time to keep some of the physical displacements at the interface. This latter capability is very useful to build reduced order models in which the presence of physical displacements are essential, for example in order to impose prescribed motions or to take into account local non-linearities. The new method is applied to a bladed disk in both tuned and mistuned cases.

Bladed Disk

In this paper, a reduced order model for the vibrations of bladed disk assemblies was achieved. The system studied was a 3D annulus of shroudless, “custom-tailored,” mistuned blades attached to a flexible disk. Specifically, the annulus was modeled as a spectral-based “meshless” continuum structure utilizing only nodal data to describe the arbitrary volume in which the system's dynamical energy was minimized. An extended Ritz variational procedure was used to minimize this energy, subjected to constraints imposed by an assumed 3D displacement field of mathematically complete, orthonormal “blade-disk” polynomials multiplied by generalized coefficients. The coefficients were determined by constraining the polynomial series to satisfy the extended Ritz stationary equations and essential boundary conditions of the bladed disk. From this, the governing equations of motion were generated into their usual dynamical forms to calculate upper-bounds on the actual free and forced responses of bladed disks. No conventional finite elements and element connectivity or component substructuring data were needed. This paper, Part I, outlines the theoretical foundation of the present model, and through extensive Monte Carlo simulations, establishes the analytical basis, predictive accuracy, and re-analysis efficiency of the present technology in the prediction of 3D maximum response amplitude of mistuned bladed disks having increasing numbers of nodal diameter excitations. Further applications validating the 3D approach against conventional finite element procedures of free and forced response prediction of a mistuned Integrally-Bladed Rotor used in practice is presented in a companion paper, Part II (Fang, McGee, and El-Aini, 2013, “A Reduced-Order Meshless Energy Model for the Vibrations of Mistuned Bladed Disks—Part II: Finite Element Benchmark Comparisons, ASME J.

The method of component mode synthesis is developed to determine the forced response of nonlinear, multishaft, rotor-bearing systems. The formulation allows for simulation of system response due to blade loss, distributed unbalance, base shock, maneuver loads, and specified fixed frame forces. The motion of each rotating component of the system is described by superposing constraint modes associated with boundary coordinates and constrained precessional modes associated with internal coordinates. The precessional modes are truncated for each component and the reduced component equations are assembled with the nonlinear supports and interconnections to form a set of nonlinear system equations of reduced order. These equations are then numerically integrated to obtain the system response. A computer program, which is presently restricted to single shaft systems has been written and results are presented for transient system response associated with blade loss dynamics, with squeeze film dampers, and with interference rubs.

Inlet Flow Distortion

Turbine blades are always subjected to severe aerodynamic loading. The aerodynamic loading is uniform and Of harmonic nature. The harmonic nature depends on the rotor speed and number of nozzles (vanes counts). This harmonic loading is the main sources responsible for blade excitation. In some circumstances, the aerodynamic loading is not uniform and varies circumferentially. This paper discussed the effect of the non-uniform aerodynamic loading on the blade vibrational responses. The work involved the experimental study of forced response amplitude of model blades due to inlet flow distortion in the presence of airflow. This controlled inlet flow distortion therefore represents a nearly realistic environment involving rotating blades in the presence of airflow. A test rig was fabricated consisting of a rotating bladed disk assembly, an inlet flow section (where flow could be controlled or distorted in an incremental manner), flow conditioning module and an aerodynamic flow generator (air suction module with an intake fan) for investigations under laboratory conditions. Tests were undertaken for a combination of different air-flow velocities and blade rotational speeds. The experimental results showed that when the blades were subjected to unsteady aerodynamic loading, the responses of the blades increased and new frequencies were excited. The magnitude of the responses and the responses that corresponding to these new excited frequencies increased with the increase in the airflow velocity. Moreover, as the flow velocity increased the number of the newly excited frequency increased.

In turbo machinery design it is important to avoid vibrations that can destroy the turbine in the last resort. The rotating structure is exposed to periodic excitation forces. Two main types of periodic excitation can be distinguished. Flutter is the effect when mass flow forces couple with a natural vibration mode. The result is a negative damping coefficient and amplitudes will rise up to malfunction of the structure. The engine order excitation is a periodic excitation where the force signal is directly related to the speed of the rotor. A forced response calculation gives information about the blade vibration. Nonlinear coupling, i.e. friction coupling, between blades is used to increase damping of the bladed disk. Dynamic analysis of turbine blades with nonlinear coupling is a complex task and computer simulations are inevitable. Various techniques have been developed to reduce computational effort. The cyclic symmetry approach assumes each blade around the disk to be identical. Thus only one sector of the disk is sufficient to compute the steady state solution of the whole turbine blading. However, it has been observed that mistuning of blades reduces the flutter instability. On the other hand statistical mistuning can lead to dangerously high forced response amplitudes due to mode localization. A compromise is intentional mistuning. The simplest approach is alternate mistuning with every other blade exhibiting identical mechanical properties. This work explains in detail how a turbine bladed disk can be modeled when alternate mistuning is applied intentionally. Cyclic symmetry is used and each sector comprises two blades. This untypical choice of the sector size has significant impact on results of a cyclic modal analysis. Simulation results show the influence of alternate mistuned turbine bladings which are coupled by underplatform damper elements.

A new reduction method for vibration analysis of intentionally mistuned bladed disks is presented. The method is built for solving the dynamic problem of cyclic structures with geometric modifications. It is based on the use of the cyclic modes of the different sectors, which can be obtained from a usual cyclic symmetry modal analysis. Hence the projection basis is constituted; as well as, on the whole bladed disk, each sector matrix is reduced by its own modes. The method is validated numerically on a real bladed disk model, by comparing free and forced responses of a full model finite element analysis to those of a reduced-order model using the new reduction method.

The method of polynomial chaos has been used to analytically compute the statistics of forced response of a mistuned bladed disk assembly. The model of the bladed disk assembly considers only one mode of vibration of each blade. Mistuning phenomenon has been simulated by treating the modal stiffness of each blade as a random variable. The validity of the polynomial chaos method has been corroborated by comparison with the results from numerical simulations.
