Abstract:
A method for measuring the deformation of a turbo-machine blade including: a step of positioning at least one accelerometer onto a local point of the turbo-machine blade; a first step of measuring the centrifugal force, by the accelerometer, at the local point of the turbo-machine blade along the given measurement direction at a first predetermined speed; a second step of measuring the centrifugal, at a second predetermined speed; a step of determining the angular displacement of the measurement direction of the accelerometer relative to the centrifugal direction as a function of the first acceleration measurement and the second acceleration measurement, said angular displacement corresponding to an angular deformation of the local point of the turbo-machine blade.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for measuring vibration amplitudes of the blade tips in a turbomachine, comprising a support mounted in an orifice of a casing of a turbomachine and wherein are housed two optical guides for the emission and reception of a light signal exiting inside the casing across from the tips of the blades of a turbine wheel. Each optical guide comprises an optical fibre connected by a mechanical connector to a needle of which the core is made of a material able to transmit a light signal and which is resistant to temperatures less than or equal to 1100° C. and which exits at its distal end in the casing across from the blade tips.
