Abstract:This paper presents the results of a numerical synthesis and characterization of vibrations of low-pressure steam turbine last stage rotating blades. A Fluid Structure Interaction (FSI) study is carried out using ANSYS Fluent 18.1 and ANSYS Mechanical 18.1. Using a one way coupling between ANSYS Fluent and ANSYS Mechanical, it was possible to link the two systems and allow pressure force calculations from Fluent to be used for the blade excitation in ANSYS Mechanical. The result of simulation shows that the bl… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
