ABSTRACT : In order to improve performance, closer tolerances are usually required in high performance turbomachinery. This often results in an increase in rotor casingJrea1 rub sensitivities. The objective of this paper is to investigate the eflects of mass, support sti@ess and blade sttjrness during a rotor-casing rub event. Special emphasis will be given to de$ning the tuningldetuning effects of the system during such variations in mass and sttj%ess. The overall model will incorporate the influence of: (i) casing and rotor inertia, (ii) casing and rotor support stt@tess, (iii) contact friction induced during rub interaction, (iv) single and multiple blade contact, as well as (v> lateral and radial blade st@ness eflects. The main thrust will be to investigate the dtyerent regimes of rubbing, i.e. the development of full rubs, rigid bouncing and essentially chaotic behavior due to the changes in rotor-to-casing mass and sttjrness ratios, as welI as blade sttjrness andfriction efSects.

Introduction In recent years increased attention has been given to analysing the dynamics of rub interactions in high performance rotating equipment, i.e. turbines, pumps etc. To improve performance, closer tolerance is typically required. This has led to increased rub sensitivities. In studies to date prototypically the rub interaction models have either considered the casing as rigid (l-lo), or as purely an elastically supported structure (6,11,12). Such assumptions do not account for the potential tuning/detuning effects of casing inertia. In the context of the foregoing, this paper will consider the effects of casing inertia on the overall rotor-bladecasing interaction problem. Special emphasis will be given to defining the tuning/detuning effects. Overall, the model will incorporate the influence of
casing and rotor inertia, casing and rotor support stiffness, contact frictions induced during rub, single and multiple blade contact, as well as lateral and radial blade stiffness effects.
To gain a thorough understanding of the overall influence of casing mass, a wider ranging parametric study is presented. This considers system sensitivity to variations in (i) rotor/casing mass ratio, (ii) rotor/casing stiffness and (iii) blade stiffness and friction
Special emphasis will be given to ascertain parameter ranges wherever rigid bouncing and essentially chaotic behavior are noted. In the sections which follow, detailed discussions are given on

For the rotor/casing system shown in Fig. 1, the equations of motion can be developed for both rotor and casing motion (4,5, 9) independently when no rub interaction occurs.

F. K. Choy et al. III. Solution Procedure In order to simulate a realistic rub event, the rotor system is assumed to be operating a steady state orbit with some initial mass imbalance without any rub interaction between the rotor and the casing. With a suddenly induced massimbalance, the rotor vibration orbit is increased and eventually rub interactions occur, For the purpose of capturing the transient dynamics of the system, (9))(12) are rewritten in the form (4, 5) Jr = (l/m,){m,e,[02(cos OcosQ,+sin 0 sin O,,)

Equations (13) and (14), (15) and (16) are integrated separately to give the transient vibration for both rotor and casing at each time interval. The radial rub force due to radial blade deflection is given (5, 6) as

A vibration magnitude dependent variable time stepping Newmark-Beta type of integration scheme is used to integrate a,, Qr, 6,., Q,,. A very small time step interval is used during rotor-casing rub interactions to handle the large nonlinearity effects in the blade stiffness. Dynamics of both the rotor and the casing are examined in time and frequency domain using a FFT procedure.
IV. Model Development To investigate the dynamics of rotor/blade/casing actions, a simplistic rotor/casing model is employed possesses the following general characteristics : systems during rub interin this study. The model

assembly is assumed to be a Jeffcott rotor simulation, see Fig. 1, linearized effective damping and stiffness characteristics are assumed at the rotor and casing geometric center, the turbine/impeller blades are assumed to be fixed at the rotor disk mounting (cantilevered), the effect of nonlinear blade stiffnesses are generalized to handle multiple blade participation rub interaction (Fig. 3) the casing structure is assumed to be supported by linearized stiffness and damping characteristics which can vibrate independently of the rotor motion, the rotor assembly is assumed to operate initially at steady-state motion under a small imbalance wherein the casing is initially at rest. An additional mass imbalance is suddenly induced into the rotor system to excite the transient vibration of the system.

F. K. Clzo_v et al. With the above assumptions, the equations presented in the following section. V. Discussion As noted earlier, the main thrust of this paper is to establish : of motion for the analytical model are
(i) The tuningdetuning effects of the relative rotor/casing stiffness and mass ratios, (ii) the nonlinear effects of blade stiffness, i.e. multi-blade interactions and (iii) the system parametric characteristics leading to full rubs. For instance, Figs 46 illustrate the effects of casing stiffness. In particular, the rotor, casing and relative orbits are displayed. As can be seen, as the casing is gradually stiffened, its orbit progressively shrinks. In contrast, for softening characteristics, increasingly bouncier/loopier type trajectories are excited. These are an outgrowth of the potential excitation of subharmonics, i.e. the natural frequencies of some system subcomponents. For example, Fig. 7 illustrates the development of l/3 harmonic loops. These involve excitation of the casing where the frequency is l/3 of the rotating imbalance. Similar responses may be excited at l/2, I /4, l/S etc. . . of the rotating speed. Continuing, the tuning and detuning effects of mass variations are depicted in Figs S-10. Three basic response types are excited, i.e. (i) full rubs for very light casings, (ii) rigid bouncing for very heavy casings and (iii) essentially chaotic behavior for intermediate
values.
Three-dimensional views of the stiffness and mass effects on the steady-state rub force, blade stress and blade deflection are depicted in Fig. 11. Note that for low casing to rotor mass ratios, significantly lower steady-state response levels are attained. As the mass ratio is increased, significantly higher steady-state values are excited. Similar trends are also depicted for the transient -three-dimensional plots given in Fig. 12. Here the various isolated peaks are a result of the tuning and detuning of the various system component frequencies. Next, we consider the generation of continuous and intermittent rubs. These are illustrated in Figs 13-l 5. Figures I3 and 14 depict the effects of blade stiffness on the generation of rubs. As can be seen, blade stiffness is reduced when the intermittent rub is replaced by a full rub. Similar trends are noted as the casing to rotor mass ratio is raised. Here the response varies between full rub to highly intermittent trajectories, see Fig. 15. Lastly, we shall consider the nonlinearity effects induced by multiple blade rubs. Note Fig. 13, it follows that transitions from single to multiple blade rubs are marked by discontinuous load deflection behavior. In particular, the response is highly stiff at transitions and gradually softens until the next transition occurs. Such behavior leads to a saturation of peak loads. This is clearly seen in Figs 16 and 17 where a distinct saturation is noted in the various responses. 32

VI. Conclusions Overall, the foregoing case studies lead to the following conclusions concerning the influence of rotor/casing/blades and stiffness and associated mass effects namely :
(1) Large
nonlinearity due to rub interactions is induced by the discontinuities due to single/multiple blade participation rub interactions. (2) The decreasing in casing stiffness will result in larger and bouncier/loopier rotor orbit trajectories. (The increase of subharmonic orbit components.) Rotor orbit trajectories can shift from rigid bouncing to chaotic behavior then (3) to full rub phenomena with decrease of casing stiffness for very lightweightcasing system. (4) Level of rotor steady response will decrease with the decrease of casing mass. behavior to full rub under similar (5) The system can shift from intermittent operating conditions with either a decrease in blade stiffness or a decrease in casing mass.
