Abstract:

A natural frequency of a new type of flexible-blade Rushton impeller was studied to avoid a resonance phenomenon. The vibration characteristics of this impeller under stationary and rotating working conditions were experimentally investigated. Frequency domain characteristics were obtained by making Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) of time domain characteristics. The results showed that a vibration energy of the impeller was mainly concentrated in a frequency band of 1-7Hz under the stationary state. A vibration energy of a rotating impeller with different speeds was mainly concentrated in a frequency bands corresponding to their respective peaks. Specifically, a peak acceleration distribution of acceleration data was shown in a frequency band of 47-52Hz. The acceleration amplitude increased significantly at 2.5r/s, and a main vibration frequency was equal to the natural frequency, which was 2.5Hz. So it was judged that resonance occured at this time. Therefore, the method of obtaining the resonance rotational speed through the test provided a basis for a reasonable selection of the rotational speed of the flexible-blade impeller.
