Abstract
A bladed rotor system for a turbomachine includes a circumferential row of blades mounted on a rotor disc, and includes a plurality of under-platform dampers. Each damper is located between adjacent blade platforms. The plurality of dampers includes a first set of dampers and a second set of dampers. The dampers of the first set are distinguished from the dampers of the second set by a cross-sectional material distribution in the damper that is unique to the respective set. Dampers of the first set and the second set are positioned alternately in a periodic fashion in a circumferential direction, to provide a frequency mistuning to stabilize flutter of the blades.
