Abstract
Abstract A distorted air stream entering an aeroengine fan or compressor leads to harmonic forces on the rotating blades. These aerodynamically induced forces are well known causes for blade vibration and associated fatigue problems. Significant levels of distortion can arise from different sources that occur at specific operating conditions as well as from upstream obstructions in the flow. Unsteady response to a specific distortion can be modeled using CFD methods to a high degree of fidelity. With a focus on understanding the aeroacoustic interaction the analyses used here considers generic harmonics of the distortion. Harmonic responses are calculated from low to transonic speeds for a range of cases. Major phenomena and driving parameters affecting the forcing strength and pressure amplitudes in the blade passage are identified from the analyses. It is demonstrated that the forcing strength is strongly affected by the cut-on/cut-off conditions upstream and downstream of the blades. Also, depending on design parameters of the blade, the aeroacoustics of the blade passage is important for the resulting forcing. The analyses used are made in 2D over a wide range of flow conditions as well as geometric variations. The results of the study provides an increased understanding of the harmonic forcing of blades. A simple model is proposed that can identify condition where increased pressure amplitudes in the blade passage may be expected. The sensitivities to parameters may also give some guidance in how design and operation can be adapted to reduce the aerodynamic forcing.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
