Vibration prediction of rotating composite fan blades comprising viscoelastic damping treatments
Résumé
To reduce the risk of fatigue problems and flutter phenomena, the structural
damping of turbomachinery components is increased by integrating constrained
viscoelastic patches into rotating composite blades. However, the temperature,
the frequency (of the vibration mode to be damped) and the rotation speed are
all parameters which may affect significantly the efficiency of the viscoelastic
damping treatment.
In the presented work, a numerical tool is developed to predict the structural
damping of a dynamic rotating composite fan blade while varying the temperature
and the rotation speed. This study is based on a finite element model of a
fan disk sector equipped with constrained viscoelastic patches. This work will
allow quantifying the influence of temperature and rotation speed on the efficiency
of the passive damping treatment and contribute to the design of higher
performing blades.
