This paper presents an innovative stability analysis and design approach for time-domain impedance boundary conditions to simulate noise propagation and radiation from a lined turbomachinery duct in the presence of a mean flow. A control-oriented model is developed for the stability analysis of the impedance boundary condition by using generalized function at the lining surface. The mean flow effect and sound propagation are considered in the model as well. Then, the numerical stability issue is analyzed by using the Bode plots before stabilized accordingly by employing the phase lead compensator method, which results in a rational transfer function. Finally, the corresponding time-domain implementation is achieved by using the so-called controllable canonical form rather than an inconvenient convolution operation. The performance of the current proposed approach is first validated in an in-duct propagation case by comparing to analytical solutions obtained by employing the Wiener–Hopf method and then demonstrated in a couple of duct acoustic problems with representative turbomachinery setups. The innovative cross-disciplinary nature of the current proposed approach can shed light on impedance problems and is very useful to time-domain acoustic simulations for turbomachinery applications.

The Stability

The acoustics of a straight annular lined duct containing a swirling mean flow is considered. The classical Ingard–Myers impedance boundary condition is shown not to be correct for swirling flow. By considering behaviour within the thin boundary layers at the duct walls, the correct impedance boundary condition for an infinitely thin boundary layer with swirl is derived, which reduces to the Ingard–Myers condition when the swirl is set to zero. The correct boundary condition contains a spring-like term due to centrifugal acceleration at the walls, and consequently has a different sign at the inner (hub) and outer (tip) walls. Examples are given for mean flows relevant to the interstage region of aeroengines. Surface waves in swirling flows are also considered, and are shown to obey a more complicated dispersion relation than for non-swirling flows. The stability of the surface waves is also investigated, and as in the non-swirling case, one unstable surface wave per wall is found.

The Time Domain

Self-excited vibrations significantly reduce the milling productivity, deteriorate the quality of machined surface and tool life. One of the ways to avoid these vibrations is to modify the cutting parameters based on the stability analysis results. A method of numerical simulation of self-excited vibrations in the time domain can be used for this purpose. A comparison of numerical simulation results with those from experiments conducted using a milling machine is presented. The results confirm the correctness of applied modeling.

The Stability

An alternative method is devised for calculating dynamic stability maps in cylindrical and centerless infeed grinding processes. The method is based on the application of the Floquet theorem by repeated time integrations. Without the need of building the transition matrix, this is the most efficient calculation in terms of computation effort compared to previously presented time-domain stability analysis methods (semi-discretization or time-domain simulations). In the analyzed cases, subspace iteration has been up to 130 times faster. One of the advantages of these time-domain methods to the detriment of frequency domain ones is that they can analyze the stability of regenerative chatter with the application of variable workpiece speed, a well-known technique to avoid chatter vibrations in grinding processes so the optimal combination of amplitude and frequency can be selected. Subspace iteration methods also deal with this analysis, providing an efficient solution between 27 and 47 times faster than the abovementioned methods. Validation of this method has been carried out by comparing its accuracy with previous published methods such as semi-discretization, frequency and time-domain simulations, obtaining good correlation in the results of the dynamic stability maps and the instability reduction ratio maps due to the application of variable speed.
