STRUCTURE COMPRISING A ROTOR AND FIXED PERTURBATION SOURCES AND METHOD FOR REDUCING VIBRATIONS IN SAID STRUCTURE

摘要

A method of reducing vibration in a structure comprising at least one rotor ( 101 _j) and a fixed set of sources of disturbance ( 102 _j) liable to give rise to disturbances in the fluid flow ( 11 ) that cause the rotor to vibrate, the method comprising a step of distributing the fixed sources of disturbance angularly in non-uniform manner so as to reduce the amplitude of excitation as seen by the rotor, and a step which consists in verifying that the maximum amplitude of a response of the rotor to the excitation is obtained by: determining a first signal whose Fourier transform corresponds to the frequency spectrum of the excitation in the event of the fixed sources of disturbance being distributed in a predetermined angular distribution; by modifying the first signal into a second signal adapted to said selected angular distribution for the fixed sources of disturbance; by determining the frequency spectrum of the excitation by calculating the Fourier transform of the second signal; and by calculating the response of the rotor to the excitation on the basis of the frequency spectrum of the excitation.
