Dazu erfolgt bezüglich der Kopplungsverfahren eine Überprüfung der Funktionalität am akademischen Beispiel einer querangeströmten, elastischen Platte. Vor dem Hintergrund der intensiven Forschung des Lehrstuhls auf dem Gebiet der Strukturdynamik integraler Verdichterlaufräder (Blisks) schließt sich die Validierung des eingesetzten Strömungslösers hinsichtlich einer transsonischen, instationären Verdichterströmung innerhalb schwingender Schaufelgitter an. Letztlich wird das grundlegende aeroelastische Verhalten eines realen Hochdruckverdichterlaufrades anhand eines unverstimmten, zweidimensionalen Modells analysiert. Ein Vergleich der Methoden zur Berechnung aeroelastischer Parameter ist Bestandteil der Untersuchungen.

N2 - The present work aims on establishing state of the art, partitioned, uni- and bidirectional coupling methods between commercial FE- and CFD-codes at the chair of Structural Mechanics and Vehicle Vibration Technology (Brandenburg Technical University Cottbus). Therefore a basic validation of the coupling procedures is carried out concerning an academical example of a flexible cantilever plate which is transversal flowed by an artificial fluid. Due to the intensive research of the chair onto the structural dynamic behaviour of blade integrated disks (blisks) in the past a validation of the used flow solver with respect to transsonic flows through a vibrating compressor cascade configuration is conducted. Finally the principle aeroelastic behaviour of a real high pressure compressor rotor stage is investigated by deriving a suitable two dimensional and tuned compressor cascade model. A comparison of different methods to predict aeroelastic parameter is part of the investigations. Based on results of a bidirectional coupled simulation a verification of inferred equivalent aerodynamic elements within a tuned mass-spring-damper model is figured out in conclusion.

The resulting unsteady loads are used to determine the response of two particular rotor blade rows that are then compared to strain gauge data from measurements. Within a deep surge cycle the compressor experiences a rapid change of the flow field from forward to reversed flow. This rapid breakdown is linked to a new mean blade load. Hence, the rapid change in blade loads are able to excite fundamental blade modes similar to an impulse load. The resulting vibration magnitudes might reach critical levels. This paper demonstrates two different approaches to evaluate the unsteady flow during a surge cycle. The first uses a three dimensional, time accurate finite volume solver for viscid compressible flows to calculate the transient surge cycle of the compressor. The compressor itself is represented by a multi-blade-row sector model. The second approach makes use of the same solver and compressor domain to determine steady state characteristics of the HPC in forward, stalled and reversed flow. Based on these characteristics an one dimensional finite volume solver for inviscid compressible flows was developed to determine the transient compressor behavior. The one dimensional solver represents the compressor by source terms that are linked to the previously determined steady state characteristics.

This so called blisk is discretized using the finite element method. It is well known that numerical blisk models based on the ideal tuned design show major differences in structural dynamic behavior compared to the real rotor. In this context a modification of the mechanical simulation model should lead to a better accordance of numerical results and the real blisk characteristics. The described model update procedure utilizes data of an optical 3D measurement system. Using this data enables to identify geometric deviations between the ideal design and its real counterpart. Within the update procedure the originally tuned finite element mesh is modified in order to match the measured geometry of the real part. This is done by defining several morph regions. The outer surface nodes of these morph regions change their position along the surface normal vector until they meet the defined deviation constraint. Based on eigenvalue calculations employing free boundary conditions the sensitivity of structural dynamic behavior is shown with respect to small geometric changes. Finally computed eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the updated simulation model are compared with vibration measurement data. A laser Doppler vibrometer is used to detect the vibration responses of the impact excited structure. All experiments are carried out under technical vacuum conditions in order to minimize ambient air damping. In the context of an experimental modal analysis this low damping condition helps to identify more natural frequencies of the investigated structure. This leads to a much more efficient model validation.

Within this idea it is an essential task to digitize the relevant airfoil surface as good as possible to create a valid surface mesh as the base of the upcoming evaluation tasks. Since those huge surface meshes are not easy to handle and are even worse in getting quantified and easy interpretable results, it should be aimed for an easily accessible way of presenting the geometric variation. The presented idea uses a section based airfoil parametrization that is based on an extended NACA-airfoil structure to ensure the capturing of all occurring characteristic geometry variations. This Paper will show how this adapted parametrization method is suitable to outline all the geometric blade by blade variation and even more, refer those airfoil design parameters to modal analysis results such as the natural frequencies of the main mode shapes. This way, the dependencies between the modal and airfoil parameters will be proven.

Object of investigation is an industrial test blisk of an axial compressor which is milled from solid using a state of the art 5-axis milling machine. First, the blisk geometry is digitized by a blue light fringe projector. Digitization is largely automated using an industrial robot cell in order to guarantee high repeatability of the measurement results. Additionally, frequency mistuning patterns are identified based on vibration measurements. Here, the system excitation is realized by a modal impact hammer. The blade response is detected using a laser scanning vibrometer. Furthermore, all blades except the currently excited one are detuned with additional masses. Applying these masses allows to identify a blade dominated natural frequency for each blade and every mode of interest. Finally, these blade dominated frequencies are summarized to mode specific mistuning patterns. The key part of the contribution presents a model update approach which is focused on small geometric deviations between real engine parts and idealized simulation models. Within this update procedure the nodal coordinates of an initially tuned finite element blisk model were modified in order to match the geometry of the real part measured by blue light fringe projection. All essential pre- and post-processing steps of the mesh morphing procedure are described and illustrated. It could be proven that locally remaining geometric deviations between updated finite element model and the optical measurement results are below 5 μm. For the purpose of validation blade dominated natural frequencies of the updated finite element blisk model are calculated for each sector up to a frequency of 17 kHz. Finally, the numerically predicted mistuning patterns are compared against the experimentally identified counterparts. At this point a very good agreement between experimentally identified and numerically predicted mistuning patterns can be proven across several mode families. Even mistuning patterns of higher modes at about 17 kHz are well predicted by the geometrically mistuned finite element model. Within the last section of the paper, possible uncertainties of the presented model update procedure are analyzed. As a part of the study the digitization of the investigated blisk has been repeated for ten times. These measurement results serve as input for the model update procedure described before. In the context of this investigation ten independent geometrical mistuned simulation models are created and the corresponding mistuning patterns are calculated.

To investigate the blending consequences in terms of aerodynamic damping and forcing changes, an exemplary blending of a rotor blade is modelled. Steady state flow parameters like total pressure ratio, polytropic efficiency and the loss coefficient are compared. Furthermore, aerodynamic damping is computed utilising the AIC approach for both geometries. Results are confirmed by SPF simulations for specific nodal diameters of interest. Finally, an unidirectional forced response analysis for the nominal and the blended rotor is conducted to determine the aerodynamic force exciting the blade motion. Fourier transformation of the forcing signal yields to the frequency content as well as the forcing amplitudes. As a result of the present analysis, the amplification of expected blade vibration amplitude is computed.

The superior objective of the research project is to contribute to a reliable but simultaneously less conservative design of future high pressure blade integrated disks (blisk). It is planned to achieve trend-setting advances based on a close combination of both numerical and experimental analyses. The analyses are focused on the second rotor of this research compressor, which is the only one being manufactured as blisk. The comprehensive test program is addressing both surge and forced response analyses e.g. caused by low engine order excitation. Among others the interaction of aeroelastics and blade mistuning is demanding attention in this regard. That is why structural models are needed, allowing for an accurate forced response prediction close to reality. Furthermore, these models are required to support the assessment of blade tip timing (BTT) data gathered in the rig tests and strain gauge (s/g) data as well. To gain the maximum information regarding the correlation between BTT data, s/g-data and pressure gauge data, every blade of the second stage rotor (28 blades) is applied with s/g. However, it is well known that s/g on blades can contribute additional mistuning that had to be considered upon updating structural models. Due to the relevance of mistuning, efforts are made for its accurate experimental determination. Blade-by-blade impact tests according to a patented approach are used for this purpose. From the research point of view, it is most interesting to determine both the effect s/g-instrumentation and assembling the compressor stages on blade frequency mistuning. That is why experimental mistuning tests carried out immediately after manufacturing the blisk are repeated twice, namely, after s/g instrumentation and after assembling. To complete the pre-test program, the pure mechanical damping and modal damping ratios dependent on the ambient pressure are experimentally determined inside a pressure vessel. Subsequently the mistuning data gained before is used for updating subset of nominal system mode (SNM) models. Aerodynamic influence coefficients (AICs) are implemented to take aeroelastic interaction into account for forced response analyses. Within a comparison of different models, it is shown for the fundamental flap mode (1F) that the s/g instrumentation significantly affects the forced response, whereas the impact of assembling the compressor plays a minor role.
