Modeling the effect of shroud contact and friction dampers on the mistuned response of turbopumps

摘要

The contract has been revised. Under the revised scope of work a reduced order model has been developed that can be used to predict the steady-state response of mistuned bladed disks. The approach has been implemented in a computer code, LMCC. It is concluded that: the reduced order model displays structural fidelity comparable to that of a finite element model of an entire bladed disk system with significantly improved computational efficiency; and, when the disk is stiff, both the finite element model and LMCC predict significantly more amplitude variation than was predicted by earlier models. This second result may have important practical ramifications, especially in the case of integrally bladed disks.
