INFLUENCE OF GEOMETRIC, KINEMATIC, GAS-DYNAMIC PARAMETERS ON ROTOR DYNAMIC STATE TAKING INTO ACCOUNT GAS DYNAMIC FLOW IN LABYRINTH SEALS CLEARANCES

Abstract

The present work details a new approach to the study of GTU rotor vibrations, based on the solution of a related dynamic problem for the «gas – dynamic flow – deformable structure» sys-tem. The modern tendency to increase an aggregates power with a simultaneous decrease stiffness results in new phenomenons that affected a rotor vibration state. The compressor rotor model with a labyrinth seal is considered. ANSYS software product is used. The calculations were carried out on a high-performance computer complex PNRPU. The performed calculations showed a qualitative and quantitative effect of a gas-dynamic gap on the rotor dynamics. A 2FSI calculations series was performed to study the influence of geometric, kinematic and gas-dynamic parameters on the rotor dynamic state. A pressure fluctuations spectral analysis in the gas-dynamic gap and displacements has been carried out. The obtained spectrograms pro-cessing it possible to plot amplitudes and frequencies dependences of resonant pressure oscil-lations over an initial pressure in the gas-dynamic gap. It was found that the initial pressure in a gas-dynamic gap has the greatest influence. A rotor and gas oscillations resonant frequency was found, which corresponds to a change in the shaft axis spatial position. The «gas – struc-ture» system resonant frequencies were obtained for models differing in mass and stiffness. A decrease in an elasticity modulus of the structure led to a decrease in the maximum pressure fluctuations amplitude, while a decrease in mass led to its increase. For the base model and the model with lower rigidity, the resonant pressure oscillations frequency depends on the initial pressure value according to a law close to linear, while for the model with a lower mass, the dependence has a pronounced non-linear character.
