Vibratory behavior prediction of mistuned stator vane clusters: An industrial application

摘要

Geometric and material dispersions of bladed disks imply some mistuning effects, which result in both the loss of cyclic symmetry properties and a vibratory response amplification in areas of high modal density. These conditions complicate the prediction of vibratory behavior, causing high modal density and extreme sensitivity to mistuning. A non-intrusive spectral stochastic method has been developed to predict the vibratory behavior of a mistuned stator vane. To apply this method to an industrial model, a Karhunen-Loeve expansion and a double modal synthesis method have been combined with the stochastic method. The complete method was first tested on a simple academic model and then on an industrial stator vane sector. (C) 2017 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
