Verification of Employed Assumptions In Decoupled Methodology For Turbomachinery Aeroelasticity
Majid Mesbah
Abstract
This paper focuses on the validity of the used assumptions in the development of the Decoupled approaches which predict the aeroelasticity behavior of turbomachinery blades. A Decoupled approach is employed to evaluate the aerodynamic damping and the forced response of a low pressure compressor BluMTM induced by low engine excitations. The validity of the assumptions like superposition principle, linearity of aerodynamic damping and the blade-motion independency of the aerodynamic forces are verified by employing the TWIN approach. Extensive experiments are also carried out to evaluate the overall performance of the approaches.
