Abstract
State-of-the-art prediction of the aeroelastic stability of cascades in axial-flow turbomachines is reviewed. The first main chapter of the article presents a comprehensive formulation of the two- and three-dimensional classical (unstalled) flutter problem of tuned and mistuned rotor blade rows and bladed disc assemblies. Within the framework of linearized analysis, a complete and generalized theory in modal form is outlined, comprising the various formulations of the cascade flutter problem distributed in fragments throughout the literature. Brief outlines are also made of recent advances in unsteady aero-dynamic methods for turbomachinery aeroelastic applications. The second main chapter contains a parametric study of the classical flutter stability characteristics of compressor and turbine cascades in subsonic and supersonic flow. Stability boundaries and dominant trends in flutter behaviour are outlined, and the significant effects of blade mistuning on the aeroelastic stability of turbomachine bladings are highlighted.
