The research of impeller dynamic characteristics by modal analysis technology is a kind of practical and effective fault diagnosis method, which has the vital significance to realize the security of machinery. Crack and blade fracture often occur in centrifugal compressor impeller. In order to study the impeller dynamic characteristic with crack and the blade fracture, a three-dimension finite element model (FEM) was built using ANSYS program, and an experimental modal analysis was also carried out. The compared results show that the preceding four orders natural frequencies and vibration models are basically consistent, and those also verified the reliability of the simulation results. In addition, two kinds of failure mode were also simulated, such as crack and blade fracture. It concluded that all orders natural frequencies decrease clearly, compared with the normal impeller. How the severity of crack and blade fracture affects the natural frequency was also discussed.

Compressor Impeller

This paper describes a theoretical approach to shift individual natural frequencies of centrifugal compressor impeller blades. The approach applies sizing optimization of blade’s geometry using a gradient-based optimization method. Calculation of gradients is carried out by the finite-difference method. A new centrifugal compressor blade profile generator incorporating a blade parametrization procedure is developed. The blade’s geometry is parametrized using intuitive geometric parameters. Five design parameters related to the length of the sectional profile generator line, profile thicknesses and rotation angles at hub and shroud are defined for each of the blade sectional profiles. In addition, two global design parameters are defined to control rigid rotation of the blade hub and shroud sections in circumferential direction. Four nonlinear optimization problems containing multiple frequency constraints and constraints on the static equivalent stresses are considered. The optimization aims are either shifting a particular natural frequency of a blade or minimization of blade’s mass. For instance, one of the considered optimization problems is to decrease the 1st natural frequency of an impeller blade by 5%, while the 2nd and the 3rd natural frequencies must be simultaneously increased by 5%. The analysis is applied to the centrifugal compressor of a small-size turboprop engine. A three-dimensional finite element model of the impeller blade is developed in ANSYS Mechanical software package to perform static and modal analyses. The results of the optimization show that the code can meet defined objectives and constraints with reasonable accuracy. A detailed comparison of optimized profiles with the baseline geometry is provided.

Considered electrorheological (ER) elastomers as the visco-elasticity material, a finite element model of a sandwich beam filled with ER elastomers was developed based on Hamilton’s principle and sandwich beam’s theory. Then its dynamic characteristics were analyzed. Simulation results show that natural frequencies of the sandwich beam increase and vibration amplitudes of the beam decrease as the intensity of applied electric field increases. Increased the thickness of the ER elastomers layer, natural frequencies of the beam decrease and loss factors increase. Those indicate that the dynamic characteristic of ER elastomers sandwich beams is similar as that of ER fluids beam, which can be used for vibration control of flexible structures by applied a electric field.

Automotive Clutch

Clutch system is an important element in the vehicle powertrain. It transmits the rotation from the crankshaft to the gearbox input shaft and filters axial and torsional vibrations providing from engine or induced by friction. This paper discusses axial dynamic behavior of automotive clutch for manual transmission. For this study, a tridimensional finite element model of clutch system is developed to simulate a clutch shaker test. First, an impact hammer test is performed to identify vibration properties of each clutch component. A pre-stressed modal analysis is then carried out to determine mode shapes and its associated natural frequencies of the clutch assembly. Shaker and simulation results are eventually compared to validate the clutch model. This latter offers for the design phase, a tool to avoid natural vibrations or to vibrate at specified frequencies.
