Kanatlı Rotorun Deneysel ve Sayısal Modal Analizi

Öz

The behavior of an asymmetric bladed rotor was investigated in this study. The bladed rotor which performs solid-solid, liquid-liquid, liquid-solid separation processes is part of the decanter machine and named as screw conveyor. The purpose of this study is to determine the dynamics of the rotor on the free conditions for future development of the asymmetric and blade assembled rotors. It is important for the designer to determine the natural frequencies of the bladed asymmetric rotor so that some precautions can be taken during the design of the machine and in the operating conditions of the machine. This study consisted of two parts. In the experimental one, the modal test of the bladed rotor was performed and in the numerical part, the modal analysis of the rotor was carried out under free-free boundary conditions using a simulation program based on the finite-element method. The natural frequencies of the blades and the rotor were obtained experimentally and numerically. It was found that the experimental results and numerical results were in good agreement. Besides, it was concluded that the two mode shape was equal to the transverse mode frequency of the rotor and blades and the following mode shapes correspond to the bending and torsion mode frequencies of the blades. Since the shape properties of the rotor and blades are different, it has been observed experimentally and numerically that their natural frequencies also differ.

Abstract

The behavior of an asymmetric bladed rotor was investigated in this study. The bladed rotor which performs solid-solid, liquid-liquid, liquid-solid separation processes is part of the decanter machine and named as screw conveyor. The purpose of this study is to determine the dynamics of the rotor on the free conditions for future development of the asymmetric and blade assembled rotors. It is important for the designer to determine the natural frequencies of the bladed asymmetric rotor so that some precautions can be taken during the design of the machine and in the operating conditions of the machine. This study consisted of two parts. In the experimental one, the modal test of the bladed rotor was performed and in the numerical part, the modal analysis of the rotor was carried out under free-free boundary conditions using a simulation program based on the finite-element method. The natural frequencies of the blades and the rotor were obtained experimentally and numerically. It was found that the experimental results and numerical results were in good agreement. Besides, it was concluded that the two mode shape was equal to the transverse mode frequency of the rotor and blades and the following mode shapes correspond to the bending and torsion mode frequencies of the blades. Since the shape properties of the rotor and blades are different, it has been observed experimentally and numerically that their natural frequencies also differ.
