文摘Substantial unbalance may be caused by fan blade off during the operation period of gas turbine engines,and related dynamic problems are very critical to the safety design of rotor system in aero-engine.This article aims to understand lateral-torsional coupled vibration of the rotor system with substantial unbalance.The governing equation of a modified unbalanced rotor system is established based on Lagrangian approach.Then,a mathematical analytical method is proposed in which a linear approximation is derived and the Floquet theory and Hill’s method are incorporated,from which the modal characteristics of the unbalanced rotor are obtained.The modal characteristics of the unbalanced rotor system are revealed comprehensively for the first time.Furthermore,the relation between the modes and responses of the unbalanced rotor is discussed in detail.The results show that the lateral vibration and torsional vibration of the unbalanced rotor are coupled through the inertial terms in the governing equations.Due to the coupling,veering and lock-in phenomena occur between the frequencies of the forward whirl mode and the torsional mode.Furthermore,lock-in can lead to a kind of principal instability.With regard to the response of the unbalanced rotor,both natural vibration components and enforced vibration components appear in the lateral response,while only natural vibration components appear during torsional vibration.Moreover,natural vibration components play a crucial role in the response within the principal instability region and cause divergence of the vibration amplitudes in the lateral and torsional directions.
