Abstract

Abstract : During the working process of the turbine, some types of faults can cause changes in the vibration characteristics of the blades. The real-time vibration monitoring of the blades is of great significance to the stable operation and state-based maintenance. Torsional vibration is a kind of blade vibration modes and results in failures such as cracks easily. Thus, it is important to measure it due to the harmfulness of torsional vibration. Firstly, the principle of blade tip timing (BTT) is introduced, and the models of the blade are built to analyze the characteristics of torsional vibration. Then, the compressed sensing theory is introduced, and its related parameters are determined according to the measurement requirements. Next, based on the condition that the blade rigidity axis is not bent and bent, respectively, the layout method of sensors is proposed and the numerical simulation of the measurement process is performed. The results of the above two types of numerical simulation verify the proposed measurement method. Finally, by analyzing the influencing factors of measurement uncertainty, the optimization method of sensors' layout is further proposed. This study can provide important theoretical guidance for the measurement of blade torsional vibration.
