ABSTRACT
In order to further investigate dynamic characteristics of turbine runner blades under the
coupling effect of vibration and crack, in this article, a runner blade with a crack was taken
as the research object. The coupling effect of vibration and crack was analyzed, a nonlinear
dynamic model considering the coupling of the runner blade was developed, and the vibration
and fatigue characteristics were investigated. First, based on the contact characteristics of
the breathing crack surfaces in the runner blade under hydraulic excitation, a breathing crack
surface contact model was established. Subsequently, a nonlinear dynamic model considering
the coupling effect of vibration and crack was obtained. The crack surface contact force and
crack stiffness matrix were established and the vibration and fatigue characteristics were
analyzed. Finally, the feasibility of the dynamic model was verified by a case study, and
the dynamic and vibration fatigue characteristics under the coupling effect of vibration and
crack were revealed. The research results show that with propagation of the crack, the crack
surface contact force increases and the dynamic stress amplitude at the crack tip increases
as well. When the sum of the frequency of the hydraulic excitation and the crack surface
contact force acting on the runner blade is close to the natural frequency of the runner blade,
a combined resonance will occur. When the coupling effect of vibration and crack is taken
into consideration, the vibration fatigue crack propagation model is more accurate and can
provide a basis for fatigue strength and life prediction of runner blades.
