An Optical Fiber Bundle Sensor for Tip Clearance and Tip Timing Measurements in a Turbine Rig
When it comes to measuring blade-tip clearance or blade-tip timing in turbines, reflective intensity-modulated optical fiber sensors overcome several traditional limitations of capacitive, inductive or discharging probe sensors. This paper presents the signals and results corresponding to the third stage of a multistage turbine rig, obtained from a transonic wind-tunnel test. The probe is based...
متن کاملNew Indices for Detection of Turbine blade Tip Deformation and Estimation of Clearance Extent Using Scattering Parameter
Reliability of gas turbine power plant is related to the blade normal operation. In this paper, a new on-line condition monitoring method has been presented to evaluate two important factors affecting the turbine blades that are the tip clearance and tip deformation. A K band’s microwave sensor has been simulated and optimized in CST Microwave Studio software. Scattering parameters of the near...
متن کاملOptical Tip Clearance Measurements as a Tool for Rotating Disk Characterization
An experimental investigation on the vibrational behavior of a rotating disk by means of three optical fiber sensors is presented. The disk, which is a scale model of the real disk of an aircraft engine, was assembled in a wind tunnel in order to simulate real operation conditions. The pressure difference between the upstream and downstream sides of the disk causes an airflow that might force t...
متن کاملTechniques for blade tip clearance measurements with capacitive probes
This article presents a proven but advantageous concept for blade tip clearance evaluation in turbomachinery. The system is based on heavy duty probes and a high frequency (HF) and amplifying electronic unit followed by a signal processing unit. Measurements are taken under high temperature and other severe conditions such as ionization. Every single blade can be observed. The signals are digit...
متن کاملBlade Tip Clearance and Blade Vibration Measurements Using a Magnetoresistive Sensor
A Blade Tip Timing (BTT) system enables the measurement of turbomachinery blade vibrations by means of contactless sensors mounted in the casing. In addition, the so-called Blade Tip Clearance (BTC) measurement system ensures the monitoring of the existing running gaps between the blade tip and the casing. This paper focuses on the results achieved so far using a novel magnetoresistive sensor f...
