Turbine damper
Abstract
A turbine damper may be provided that may include an elongated body sized to fit inside a turbine blade, the elongated body elongated along a radial direction of the turbine blade relative to a rotation axis of the turbine blade, and plural dampening masses coupled with the elongated body and disposed at different locations along the radial direction. The plural dampening masses may be one or more of sized to dampen different vibration modes of the turbine blade, or moveable relative to and along the elongated body in the radial direction.
