Abstract

A method to monitor rotor blade vibration using unsteady casing pressure. The method applies a non-intrusive blade vibration monitoring technique by using an array of unsteady pressure sensors which may be flush-mounted in the casing of a compressor. The method comprises using spinning mode theory and temporal-spatial analysis to obtain frequency and nodal diameter information of spinning pressure waves associated with the rotor blade vibration. An example of the compressor can be a multistage axial compressor.
