| Summary: | In order to explore the mechanism during the process of the non-synchronous vibration (NSV), the flow field formation development is investigated in this paper. Based on the fluid–structure interaction method, the vibration of rotor blades is found to be in the first bending mode with a non-integral order (4.6) of the rotation speed. Referring to the constant inter blade phase angle (IBPA), the appearances of frequency-locking and phase-locking can be identified for the NSV. A periodical instability flow emerges in the tip region with the mixture of separation vortex and tip leakage flow. Due to the nonlinearities of fluid and structure, the blade vibration exhibits a limit cycle oscillation (LCO) response. The separation vortex presenting a spiral structure propagates in the annulus, indicating a pattern as modal oscillation. A flow induced vibration is initiated by the spiral vortex in the tip. The large pressure oscillation caused by the movement of the spiral vortex is regarded as a main factor for the presented NSV. As the oscillation of blade loading occurs with blade rotating pass the disturbances, the intensity of the reverse leakage flow in adjacent channels also plays a crucial role in the blade vibration.
