Intercoupling between blades mounted on a flexible disk is examined employing a lumped-parameter model incorporating damping. Tests carried out on a gas turbine compressor and blades provide frequency and mass parameters for the model. Analysis of the model shows that vibration, and hence stress, in one or more blades, can be magnified if the distribution of blade natural frequency around the disk is suitably chosen. Feasible distributions are examined, leading to stress increases of up to 180 percent.

A new method which combines the holography interference technique with the finite element method for determining the distribution of vibration amplitudes and stresses of gas turbine compressor blades is presented in this paper. In comparison with the ordinary electrical strain gage method, the present method has the advantage that there is no limitation to the number of measuring points and good results can be obtained even at high order modes.

Gas turbine compressor blades will age and degrade in their operation. There are a lot of factors that will contribute to the degradation mechanisms and its acceleration. These factors encompass the site location, the site conditions including the aspect of air quality, water washing practice, etc. A study undertaken by Materials Engineering Group of TNB Research Sdn Bhd on 2 units of gas turbine compressor those are located near to the sea around Peninsular of Malaysia, to determine the degradation mechanisms of the blades. All these gas turbine units are located in different industrial environment. The first gas turbine unit, so called GTA is located in coastal, petrochemicals production and crude oil refining environment. The second gas turbine unit, so called GTB, located in coastal and industrial environment. The surrounding industries of GTB including oil refinery, chemical, ship fabrication and etc. This paper reports the degradation type of those gas turbine units’ compressor blades with their contributing factors.

Rotated blades are key mechanical components in turbine and high cycle fatigues often induce blade cracks. Meanwhile, mistuning is inevitable in rotated blades, which often makes it much difficult to detect cracks. In order to solve this problem, it is important and necessary to study effects of crack on vibration characteristics of mistuned rotated blades (MRBs). Firstly, a lumped-parameter model is established based on coupled multiple blades, where mistuned stiffness with normal distribution is introduced. Next, a breathing crack model is adopted and eigenvalue analysis is used in coupled lumped-parameter model. Then, numerical analysis is done and effects of depths and positions of a crack on natural frequency, vibration amplitude, and vibration localization parameters are studied. The results show that a crack causes natural frequency decease and vibration amplitude increase of cracked blade. Bifurcations will occur due to a breathing crack. Furthermore, based on natural frequencies and vibration amplitudes, variational factors are defined to detect a crack in MRBs, which are validated by numerical simulations. Thus, the proposed method provides theoretical guidance for crack detection in MRBs.

In this paper, gear-shafting system dynamics theory has been introduced into the torsional vibration calculation of the marine propulsion shaft and the vibration equations of a marine gear-shafting system were established using the lumped parameter model by taking the gear-shafting system in marine propulsion shaft as the research object. In order to solve the problem of vibration equation, dynamic simulation has been done in MATLAB software, in which the natural frequency of the system has been obtained from the simulation curve by changing the input frequency, meanwhile, the conclusion that the gears pair comprehensive meshing error is independent of the system natural frequency has been achieved. Thus, the analysis method presented in this work is available for the torsional vibration calculation of the marine gear-shafting system.
