3D inviscid flutter of rotor blades and stator/rotor stage

The approach is based on solution of the coupled aerodynamic-structure problem for 3D flow through the turbine stage in which fluid and dynamic equations are integrated simultaneously in time. An ideal gas flow through the mutually moving stator and rotor blades with periodicity on the whole annulus is described by unsteady Euler conservation equations, which are integrated using the explicit monotonous finite-volume difference scheme of Godunov-Kolgan and moving hybrid H-H grid. The structure analysis uses the modal approach and 3D finite element model of a blade. A calculation was performed for the last stage of the steam turbine with rotor blades of 0.765 m.
