Abstract
The maximum blade forced response amplitudes for mistuned bladed disks are generally much greater than those of their tuned counterparts. However, it is known that the ratio of mistuned to tuned maximum amplitudes — the amplitude magnification — is often largest at a relatively small level of mistuning. Increasing the level of mistuning beyond this critical value actually leads to a decrease in the amplitude magnification. In this study, the use of "intentional mistuning" to reduce the amplitude magnification of an industrial rotor is investigated. Intentional mistuning is introduced into a reduced order model of a 29-blade industrial rotor by varying the nominal blade stiffnesses in harmonic patterns. In addition to this intentional mistuning, the unavoidable, random mistuning of the blades is included in the model as usual. The individual and combined effects of intentional and random mistuning on the statistics of the forced response are examined. It is seen that intentional mistuning can greatly reduce the rotor’s sensitivity to random mistuning.
