The identification of cracking state of rotating blade based on vibration characteristics has garnered a lot of attention. However, nonlinear characteristics and vibration combining in radial, bending and torsional directions of a rotating blade induced by the crack breathing is yet not clear. This paper proposes a radial-bending-torsional dynamic model of rotating blade with breathing crack. A time-varying integration method is proposed for determining the crack state based on the strain energy release rate. The crack breathing behavior is described by Boolean operation and the numerical integration are applied to open or close the crack. The model is validated through modal analysis, vibration responses and contact state of crack surface. Frequency veering is changed between the 2nd flap and 1st edgewise frequency due to the existence of crack. Strong nonlinear behaviors are found in the radial and torsional vibrations because of the crack breathing. Nonlinearities are also found in the combined vibrations between the radial-bending and the bending-torsional directions. Radial and torsional vibration amplitude levels can be used as an indication of blade crack failure, but the applicability depends on the absolute response decided by the aerodynamic excitation and resonant vibration. These findings can serve as guidance in crack identification and cracking state monitoring of rotating blades.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":17233,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sound and Vibration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142240224","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work investigates the aeroacoustic effect of the rotor’s rotation speed fluctuation using both numerical and experimental approaches. The measured real-time angular speed signal reveals that a hovering rotor experiences highly deterministic rotation speed variations in one revolution, which are closely related to the motor property. Delayed detached eddy simulations are performed, and the fluctuating rotation speed is realized by controlling the mesh displacement at each time step. The results suggest that significant additional tones are produced at the excitation frequency and neighbour frequencies, even though the amplitudes of the rotation speed fluctuations at the dominant frequencies are much smaller than the mean rotation speed. By comparing the full signal to individual harmonic components, it is found that the phase difference between each mode is unimportant. Therefore, the total aeroacoustic effect can be regarded as a linear superposition of different harmonic components. Aeroacoustic source analysis is also performed to isolate the contribution of various source types and correlate the far-field noise with the near-field source distribution. The results show that the extra tonal noise is mostly dominated by the loading noise, with a weaker contribution from the thickness noise. The agreement between the experiments and the simulations indicates that the rotation speed fluctuation is likely responsible for the generation of middle-frequency tonal noise at harmonics of the blade passing frequency.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":17233,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Sound and Vibration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142319561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
