Abstract

Theoretical studies and design studies have been conducted to demonstrate the possibility of using a long hydrodynamic damper in the supports of a hydrogen pump rotor was shown. The complex problem of rotor dynamics and design synthesis of a hydrodynamic damper for a turbopump assembly (TPA) was solved. The geometric parameters of the hydrodynamic damper are determined that ensure the necessary damping level, d = 3 × 103 N s/m. It is shown that at such a damping level, the amplitude of rotor oscillations does not exceed the value of clearances in supports and on blade shoulders.
