축류 압축기 블레이드(blade)와 베인(vane)이 정하중(static load)에서 충분한 강도를 지니고 있더라도 반복하중이나 교번하중을 받게되면, 그 하중이 작더라도 파괴가 일어날 수 있다. 축류 압축기 블레이드와 베인의 피로파괴(fatigue failure) 현상은 개발 중인 가스터빈엔진 뿐만 아니라 현재 운용중인 엔진에서도 발생할 수 있는 엔진손상의 주요 원인이다. 블레이드나 베인의 동적 안정성 평가는 에어포일(airfoil)의 피로특성과 엔진운용조건에 따라서 발생하는 복잡한 공력가진과의 연관성을 고려하여 수행되어야 하기 때문에, 해석과 구성품 시험을 통하여 우선적으로 강도 평가를 실시하여야 한다.(중략)

Experimental verification in the rig test stage for component development is a vital link between the aeromechanical design and structural integrity validation process. Based on this premise, Non-Intrusive Stress Measuring System was adopted on the axial compressor test rig to measure the static and dynamic tip deflection of all blades by using tip-timing sensors. Through analyzing vibration characteristics, we evaluated the vibratory stresses seen on the blades fatigue critical location; detected synchronous resonances which are the source of High Cycle Fatigue (HCF) in blades; presented non-synchronous vibration response by aerodynamic excitation and individual blade mis-tuning patterns.

터어빈 블레이드의 경우 제작 또는 설계상의 이유로 뭉툭한 끝단을 가질 수밖에 없게 되는데, 이로 인하여 같은 터보기계인 압축기 블레이드의 경우와는 다르게 블레이드 끝단에서 끝단 와류(Trailing edge vortex)가 발생하게 된다. 이 와류는 블레이드의 손실 증가, 고주파 음파의 생성, 국부적으로 매우 큰 열 전달 및 에너지분산 등 터빈 블레이드의 성능에 좋지 못한 영향을 미치게 된다. 또한 와류와 충격파와의 간섭효과 둥이 존재하는 경우에는 매우 복잡한 유동장을 형성하며 심한 유동 구배가 존재하게 되므로 고해상도의 수치해석 방법이 아니고서는 이를 수치적으로 해석하기가 쉽지 않다.(중략)

This paper discusses a one-way fluid structural interaction (FSI) analysis and shape optimization of the impeller blades for a 15,000 HP centrifugal compressor using the response surface method (RSM). Because both the aerodynamic performance and the structural safety of the impeller are affected by the shape of its blades, shape optimization is necessary using the FSI analysis, which includes a structural analysis for the induced fluid pressure and centrifugal force. The FSI analysis is performed in ANSYS Workbench: ANSYS CFX is used for the flow field and ANSYS Mechanical is used for the structural field. The response surfaces for the FSI results (efficiency, pressure ratio, maximum stress, etc.) generated based on the design of experiments (DOE) are used to find an optimal shape for the impeller blades, which provides the maximum aerodynamic performance subject to the structural safety constraints.

A gas turbine consists of an upstream compressor and a downstream turbine with a combustion chamber, and also the compressor and the turbine are generally coupled using a single shaft. Large scale gas turbine compressor is designed as multi-stage axial flow and the blade is fan-type which is thick and wide. Recently radial cracking happens occasionally at the compressor blade tip of large scale gas turbine. So, FEM was performed on the compressor blade and vibration modes and dynamic stresses were analyzed. According to the analysis, 9th natural frequency mode of the blade, which is 2 strip mode, is near the vane passing frequency by the vane located at the upstream of the blade.

In this study, a method for optimal design of impeller and diffuser blades in the centrifugal compressor using response surface method (RSM) and multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) was evaluated. A numerical simulation was conducted using ANSYS CFX with various values of impeller and diffuser parameters, which consist of leading edge (LE) angle, trailing edge (TE) angle, and blade thickness. Each of the parameters was divided into three levels. A total of 45 design points were planned using central composite design (CCD), which is one of the design of experiment (DOE) techniques. Response surfaces that were generated on the basis of the results of DOE were used to determine the optimal shape of impeller and diffuser blade. The entire process of optimization was conducted using ANSYS Design Xplorer (DX). Through the optimization, isentropic efficiency and pressure recovery coefficient, which are the main performance parameters of the centrifugal compressor, were increased by 0.3 and 5, respectively.

This study presents the aerodynamic design and numerical analysis results on a transonic centrifugal compressor which is used for gas turbine systems. Mean-line analysis and quasi-3D analysis are used for the aerodynamic design, and Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes analysis is applied to flow analysis of the compressor. The aerodynamic parameters for a transonic compressor, such as pressure coefficient, swirl parameter, blade loading, are discussed, and flow characteristics in the impeller and diffuser are discussed.

Gas turbine compressor blades used in a combined cycle power plant are possibly damaged and fractured during their operation. There are two possible causes of the failure of compressor blades; one is a defect of material quality which can be detected through some microscopic inspections for the fracture section, the other is high cycle fatigue problem caused by vibration and can be diagnosed by carrying out dynamic characteristics analysis for the blades. In this paper, in order to determine the cause of the failure of compressor blades in a combined cycle power plant, examination of the fracture section and the propagation mechanism of the crack via stress analysis are performed. Dynamic characteristics analysis via FRF estimation is also performed to identify the cause of failure.

The outside environment is very severe while aircraft is cruising. Especially small particle of icing in cold air condition can have negative influence on aircraft performance. If ice particle is attached to leading edge of wing, it can change wing configuration and decrease flight quality. If icing particle is attached to inlet of engine, it can damage compressor blade and have negative influence to aircraft safety. We make icing simulation device with liquid air system for analyzing about variation of engine performance due to incoming of icing to engine.
