Fluid pulse device and method of exciting gas turbine engine turomachinery components
Abstract:
A fluid pulse device includes a piezo actuated valve, a piezo injector, a delivery system, and a control system. The piezo actuated valve has a valve body, a tube, and a piston assembly. The valve body defines a first opening, a second opening, and a valve cavity that is disposed between the first opening and the second opening. The tube extends from the valve body. The piston assembly includes a piston head and a stem that is connected to the piston head. The piezo injector has an injector tip that extends through the first opening. The delivery system is fluidly connected to the piezo injector. The control system is operatively connected to the piezo injector and is configured to actuate the piezo injector to provide a fluid pulse.
