Abstract

This paper employs a new analytical approach to model the influence of aerodynamic excitation on the dynamics of a bladed cascade at the flutter state. The flutter is an aero-elastic phenomenon that is linked to the interaction of the flow and the traveling deformation wave in the cascade when only the damping of the cascade changes. As a case study the dynamic properties of the five-blade-bunch excited by the running harmonic external forces and aerodynamic self-excited forces are investigated. This blade-bunch is linked in the shroud by means of the viscous-elastic damping elements. The external running excitation depends on the ratio of stator and rotor blade numbers and corresponds to the real type of excitation in the steam turbine. The aerodynamic self-excited forces are modeled by two types of Van der Pol nonlinear models. The influence of the interaction of both types of self-excitation with the external running excitation is investigated on the response curves.
