Special features of a digital speckle interferometer for determining vibration characteristics of heavy-loaded elements of an aircraft fuel pump

The results of vibration tests for heavy-loaded elements in the auger-centrifugal stage of an aircraft fuel pump performed with the use of an interference-free digital speckle-interferometer created at the Samara State Aerospace University are presented. The speckle-interferograms of an auger and a centrifugal wheel of the auger-centrifugal pump stage in different conditions of attachment and dynamic loading are given. The data obtained may be of sufficient importance in the development of aircraft fuel pumps for a specified service life.
