Prediction of Strutural Response and Fluid-Induced Vibration in Turbomachinery
SBC: CFD RESEARCH CORPORATION Topic: T102Advanced turbomachinery components play a critical role in launch vehicle and spacecraft liquid rocket propulsion systems. To achieve desired efficiencies, extremely tight tolerances are often imposed between inducer blades and shrouds or other system components which sets up strong interactions that influence both the aerodynamics and the structural performance of blades and vanes. These transien ...
