Abstract

The radial blade discs are nominally designed to be cyclically symmetrical. But the vibration characteristics of all the ra-dial blades on the disc are slightly different due to manufacturing tolerances, variations in material properties and wear during operation. These small changes break the cyclic symmetry, break the pairs of eigenvalues and affect the durability of the radial impellers of turbomachines. In further work, the designs of such systems may fail before the estimated resource or service life. Therefore, when designing, manufacturing, and operating turbomachines, it is necessary to understand the effect of parameter mistuning to manage the resource and ensure the required level of strength, reliability, and durability of radial turbomachines. This study proposes a technique for mathematical modeling and prediction of high-cycle fatigue life of radial wheels tur-bines, taking into account dynamic loading. Numerical assessment of durability was performed on the example of a radial wheel with 10 blades manufactured by Schiele (Germany). The results were obtained when calculating the dynamic load in the MATLAB program and high-cycle fatigue in the ANSYS program.
