Abstract To guide the conceptual design of hybrid foil-magnetic bearings (HFMBs), this paper presents a theoretical investigation on operation mode and load sharing strategy. According to the inherent characteristics of GFBs and AMBs, seven possible work scopes are discussed to understand the operation mode of HFMBs. A numerical model coupling the calculations of the film pressure in GFBs and the magnetic forces in AMBs is conducted to predict the performance of HFMBs. The deflection of top foil and bumps is also included in the prediction model. The analysis, which is conducted for static and dynamic performance of HFMBs within three representative work scopes by varying the load sharing, uncovers the effects of the operation mode and load sharing strategy on bearing behavior. Results show that HFMBs performance including the supporting stiffness and stability can be obviously enhanced by adjusting the operating mode and load sharing strategy.

Parameter identification procedures and model validation are major steps toward intelligent machines supported by active magnetic bearings (AMB). The ability of measuring the electromagnetic bearing forces, or deriving them from measuring the magnetic flux, strongly contributes to the model validation and leads to novel approaches in identifying crucial rotor parameters. This is the main focus of this paper, where an intelligent AMB is being developed with the aim of aiding the accurate identification of damping and stiffness coefficients of active lubricated journal bearings. The main contribution of the work is the characterization of magnetic forces by using two different experimental approaches. Such approaches are investigated and described in detail. A special test rig is designed where the four pole AMB is able to generate forces up to 1900N. The high-precision characterization of the magnetic forces is conducted using different experimental tests: (i) by using hall sensors mounted directly on the poles (precise measurements of the magnetic flux) and by an auxiliary system, composed of strain gages and flexible beams attached to the rotor, (ii) by measuring the input current and bearing gap variations, monitoring the bearing input signals. Advantages and drawbacks of the different methodologies are critically discussed. The linearity ranges are experimentally determined and the characterization of magnetic forces with a high accuracy of <1% is achieved (percent error is normalized with respect to the instantaneous measured force obtained from the strain gauges signals).
