동축 로터 시스템은 기존의 헬리콥터뿐만 아니라 드론, PAV, 차세대 고속 회전익기 및 화성탐사용 헬리콥터에 적용되는 등, 활용 분야가 점점 넓어지고 있다. 로터 시스템의 성능 연구는 기존 연구에서 동축 로터를 대상으로도 여러 차례 수행되었으나, 로터 블레이드의 변형에 대한 연구는 주로 단일 로터 시스템만을 대상으로 진행되었다. 하지만 동축 로터 시스템에서는 주변에서 발생하는 유동이 복잡하며, 두 로터의 간격이 로터 시스템 전체의 성능에 주요한 영향을 주므로 블레이드의 변형 연구가 더욱 중요하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 최신식 고속 영상촬영 기법 중 하나인 SPR(Stereo Pattern Recognition) 기법을 사용해 동축 로터 블레이드의 변형 측정에 대한 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에는 한국항공우주연구원에서 개발한 축소 동축 로터 시험장치가 사용되었으며, 로터 블레이드의 변형과 성능의 연관성을 고찰하기 위해 동축 로터 시스템의 성능시험이 선행되었다. 해당 시스템의 로터 블레이드 변형을 SPR 기법으로 측정한 결과는 사전에 진행된 성능시험 결과와 함께 본 논문에 제시되었다.

A nonlinear dynamic model for the shaft-disk-blade unit is developed in this study. In this regard, the rotating flexible blade, with a pre-twist angle, attached to a rigid disk driven by a shaft which is flexible in torsion is developed. The rotor-blade coupled model is derived using Lagrange equation in conjunction with the assumed mode method to discretize the blade deformation. The equations of motion are analyzed based on the small deformation theory for the blade and shaft torsional deformation to obtain the system natural frequencies for various system parameters.

The average growth in the wind power energy market during the past five years has been 26% per year. Renewable energy resources, of which wind energy is prominent, are part of the solution to the global energy problem. Wind power system and the rotor blade concepts are reviewed, and loadings by wind and gravity as important factors for the mechanical performance of the materials are considered. So, the mechanical properties of fiber composite materials are discussed. In addition, it is necessary to analyze and evaluate the stress distribution and deformation for them in the design level. This study shows the result that CFRP rotor blade of wind turbine satisfies the strength and deformation through numerical analysis using the commercial finite element analysis program.

A three-dimensional compressible Navier-Stokes solver, KFLOW, using overlapped grids has recently been developed to simulate unsteady flow phenomena over helicopter rotor blades. The blade-vortex interaction is predicted for a descending flight using measured blade deformation data. The effects of computational grid resolution and azimuth angle increments on airloads were examined, and computed airloads and vortex trajectories were compared with HART-II wind tunnel data. The current method predicts the BVI phenomena of blade airloads reasonably well. It is found from the present study that a peculiar distribution of vorticity of tip vortices in an approximate azimuth angle range of 90 to 180 degrees can be explained by physics of the shear-layer interaction as well as the dissipation of numerical schemes.

회전 블레이드의 모션을 측정하기 위해 스테레오 패턴 인식 (stereo pattern recognition, SPR) 기법을 적용한 측정 시스템을 구성하고 실험을 수행하였다. 시스템 요구사항을 만족시키는 스테레오 카메라를 확보하여 SPR 기반의 측정 시스템을 준비하였다. 시스템의 측정불확도를 계산하기 위한 일련의 실험을 통해, 본 SPR 시스템이 2m~4.2m의 측정 거리에서 0.2mm 이내의 표준불확도를 가짐을 확인하였다. 이를 이용하여 계산한 블레이드 모션의 합성표준불확도는, 리드-래그, 플래핑, 비틀림 운동에 대해 각각 0.296mm, 0.209mm, $0.238^{\circ}$ 이었다. 본 SPR 시스템을 한국항공우주연구원의 소형로터 시험장치에 설치하고 회전속도와 콜렉티브 피치각을 각각 360rpm, 589rpm, 그리고 $0^{\circ}$, $4^{\circ}$, $6^{\circ}$로 바꾸어가며, 지상 제자리비행 조건에서 블레이드의 모션과 탄성 변형을 성공적으로 측정하였다. Higher Harmonic Control Aeroacoustic Rotor Test -II 에서 사용한 측정 시스템과의 비교를 통하여 본 시스템의 장점을 분석하였다.

In this paper, a dynamic model for the rotor shaft-coupling-blade system is developed. The blades are attached to a disk and driven by an electric motor shaft which is flexible in torsion. We assumed that the shaft torsional flexibility is lumped in the flexible coupling which is usually adopted in rotor systems. The Lagrangian approach with the small deformation theory for both blade-bending and shaft-torsional deformations is employed for developing the equation of the motion. The assumed modes method is used for estimating the blade transverse deflection. The numerical results highlight the effects of both structural damping of the system and the torsional stiffness of the flexible coupling to the dynamic response of the blade. The results showed strong coupling between the blade bending and shaft torsional vibrations in the form of inertial nonlinearif, stiffness hardening and softening.

Bending-twisting coupling induced in big composite wind turbine blades is one of the passive control mechanisms which is exploited to mitigate loads incurred due to deformation of the blades. In the present study, flutter characteristics of bend-twist coupled blades, designed for load alleviation in wind turbine systems, are investigated by time-domain analysis. For this purpose, a baseline full GFRP blade, a bend-twist coupled full GFRP blade, and a hybrid GFRP and CFRP bend-twist coupled blade is designed for load reduction purpose for a 5 MW wind turbine model that is set up in the wind turbine multi-body dynamic code PHATAS. For the study of flutter characteristics of the blades, an over-speed analysis of the wind turbine system is performed without using any blade control and applying slowly increasing wind velocity. A detailed procedure of obtaining the flutter wind and rotational speeds from the time responses of the rotational speed of the rotor, flapwise and torsional deformation of the blade tip, and angle of attack and lift coefficient of the tip section of the blade is explained. Results show that flutter wind and rotational speeds of bend-twist coupled blades are lower than the flutter wind and rotational speeds of the baseline blade mainly due to the kinematic coupling between the bending and torsional deformation in bend-twist coupled blades.

In this study, the damage mechanism of large scale steam turbine due to water induction was analyzed and recovery characteristics were reviewed. A turbine consists of the rotating rotor and the stationary casing, and the clearance between them is very small for the efficiency enhancement. If water induction, while relatively cold steam or water is introduced into turbine, occurs, the considerable humping is caused at the casing near the initial water induction point and that induces the rubbing between rotor and casing. Finally, it leads to the catastrophic failure. Bowed rotor has the different characteristics in the recovery depending on damage degree. The elastic deformation due to light rubbing is recovered by turning the rotor with 3 rpm under normal operation condition, but most plastic deformation due to rubbing deforms the local microstructure and that results in permanent deformation which could not be recovered under normal operation condition. Bowed rotor has diverse characteristics depending on the recovery method, and the method is empirical and needs the cutting edge technology. Careful recovery treatment of the rotor will eliminate the risks and secure the high quality rotor similar to new rotor. If any critical error is made during the recovery, the rotor would not be recovered permanently and it should be scrapped.
