State Responses

A general transfer matrix method (GTMM) is developed in the present work for analyzing the steady-state responses of rotor-bearing systems with an unbalancing shaft. Specifically, we derived the transfer matrix of shaft segments by considering the state variables of shaft in a continuous system sense to give the most general formulation. The shaft unbalance, axial force, and axial torque are all taken into consideration so that the completeness of transfer matrix method for steady-state analysis of linear rotor-bearing systems is reached. To demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach, a numerical example is presented to estimate the effect of three-dimensional distribution of shaft unbalance on the steady-state responses by GTMM and finite element method (FEM).

Abstract This paper proposes a new method for steady-state, large-order nonlinear rotordynamic calculations: it uses a method called the transfer coefficient method (TCM), which is more convenient than the transfer matrix method. Since TCM calls for only the displacement as the independent variable, whereas both the displacement and the force are needed as the state variables in the conventional transfer matrix method, TCM promises a substantial saving of computation time without incurring loss in the accuracy of calculation. First, the outline of TCM is explained, then the nonlinear calculations for a rotor of many degrees of freedom are presented. This steady-state nonlinear calculation method is based on the discreet Fourier transform (DPT, FFT) and substructure synthesis. As an example, the nonlinear response due to unbalance mass is calculated and discussed in the case of the rotor which is supported by three bearings with two nonlinear squeeze film dampers.

Rotor Bearing

An improved transfer matrix method is developed to analyze nonlinear rotor-bearing systems. The rotating shaft is described by the Timoshenko beam theory which considers the effect of the rotary inertia and shear deformation. A typical roller bearing model is assumed which has cubic nonlinear spring and linear damping characteristics. Transfer matrices for the Timoshenko shaft element, disk element, and nonlinear bearing element are derived and the global transfer matrix is formed. The steady-state response of synchronous, subharmonic, and superharmonic whirls is determined using the harmonic balance method. Two numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.

Unbalance Response

This paper presents an analysis of the steady-state unbalance response of a dual-rotor gas turbine engine with a flexible intershaft squeeze film damper using a simplified transfer matrix method. The simplified transfer matrix method is convenient for the evaluation of the critical speed and response of the rotor system with various supports, shaft coupling, intershaft bearing, etc. The steady-state unbalance response of the rotor system is calculated for different shaft rotation speeds. The damping effects of an intershaft squeeze film damper with different radial clearances under various levels of rotor unbalance are investigated.
