In this paper we present an efficient method for finite element vibration analysis of a structure with cyclic symmetry and applied it to calculating the natural vibration characteristics for a blower impeller. Blower impeller having a cyclically symmetric structure is composed of circumferentially repeated substructures., The whole-structure is partitioned into substructures and then finite element vibration analysis is performed for a substructure using transformed equations for each number of nodal diameter which are derived from discrete Fourier transform in consideration of the cyclic symmetry. natural vibration characteristics for three kinds of models which are blower impeller without support ring with small support ring and with large support ring are numerically analyzed and compared. Accuracy and efficiency of the present method are verified by comparison of results of the analysis with substructure and with whole-structure. Also the results of the analysis by cyclic symmetry module(SOL 115) of MSC/NASTRAN are presented and compared.

In this Paper, we present an efficient method for finite element vibration analysis of constantly rotating structures with cyclic symmetry, which are deformed to some considerable extent by centrifugal force, Coriolis force and operating load, and vibrate due to several types of exciting forces. A structure with cyclic symmetry is composed of circumferentially repeated substructures with the same geometry. Being only one substructure modeled. the dynamic characteristics of the structure can be analyzed systematically. rapidly and exactly using discrete Fourier transform by means of a computer with small memory.

In this paper, a method of finite element analysis is presented for efficient calculation of vibration characteristics of not only simply interconnected structure with cyclic symmetry but also multiply interconnected structure with cyclic symmetry by using discrete Fourier trandform by means of a computer with small memory in a short time. Simply interconnected structure means it is composed of substructures which are adjacent themselves in circumferential direction. First, a mathematical model of multiply interconnected structure with cyclic symmetry is defined. The multiply interconnected structure is partitioned into substructures with the same goemetric configuration and constraint eqauations to be satisfied on connecting boundaries are defined. Nodal displacements and forces are transformed into complex forms through discrete Fourier transform and then finite element analysis is performed for just only a representative substructure. In free vibration analysis, natural frequencies of a whole structure can be obtained through a series of calculation for a substructure along the number of nodal diameter. And in forced vibration analysis, forced response of whole structure can be achieved by using inverse discrete Fourier transform of results which come from analysis for a substructure.
