Rotor dynamics is the study of vibration behavior in axially symmetric rotating structures. Devices such as engines, motors, disk drives and turbines all develop characteristic inertia effects that can be analyzed to improve the design and decrease the possibility of failure. At higher rotational speeds, such as in a gas pumps, the inertia effects of the rotating parts must be consistently represented in order to accurately predict the rotor behavior. An important part of the inertia effects is the gyroscopic moment introduced by the precession motion of the vibrating rotor as it spins. As spin velocity increases, the gyroscopic moment acting on the rotor becomes critically significant. Not accounting for these effects at the design level can lead to bearing and/or support structure damage. The main objective of this project is to study the Rotor Dynamic behavior of the drive rotor shaft of the Dry screw vacuum pump. The design of the pump is considered from the one of the reputed pump manufacturing industry. The operational speed of the pump is 4500 rpm, whereas the maximum capable speed of the pump is 10,000 rpm. Rotating machinery produces vibrations depending on the unbalanced mass and gyroscopic effects. Thus an investigation is to be made on the rotor dynamic properties of the shaft to find the natural frequencies and critical speed. For this rotor dynamic analysis was carried out in ANSYS APDL and Workbench16 to find the natural frequencies and critical speeds in the range of 0 to 10000 rpm. Thus an effort is made to shift the mass moment of inertia of the shaft by varying the design of the shaft and to shift the critical frequency to the higher speeds of the shaft there by increasing the efficiency. The modal analysis is performed to find the natural frequencies and it is extended to harmonic analysis to plot the stresses and deflections at the critical speeds. The design of the rotor shaft is made in NX-CAD.

A method is described for calculating critical speeds, unbalance response and damped natural frequencies of long rotors on a flexible foundation. The shaft and the foundation are calculated separately and coupled at the bearings through impedance matching. Included in the analysis is also a method for representing the shaft response by an expansion in its free-free modes.

The research on the dynamic performance of the rod-fastened rotor (RFR) has always been a hotspot. However, the structural complexity of RFR has brought significant challenges to the dynamic study of the RFR. The tie rods provide preload for the rotor shaft segment, while the coordinate deformation of the tie rods will occur during the process of vibration. In addition, the tie rods and the rotor shaft segments are structurally connected in parallel. These factors all will influence the dynamic performance of the RFR. In this paper, for a RFR system, the vibration equation of the RFR considering all factors of the tie rods is deduced in detail. The influence of various factors on the dynamic performance of the rotor is investigated. Results show that the preload directly affects the dynamic performance of the RFR system. When the preload is small, the tie rod has a larger influence on the natural frequencies of the rotor. However, when the preload force reaches a certain value, the influence of the tie rod on the natural frequencies of the rotor is almost negligible. The research results provide a theoretical reference for the understanding of and further research on RFR.

This is the second of two papers describing results of a research project directed at verifying computer programs used to calculate critical speeds of turbomachinery. This part describes measurements made to determine the characteristics of tilt-pad bearings and foundation dynamics. Critical speeds of a 166 kg laboratory rotor on tilt-pad bearings are then compared with predictions from a state-of-the-art damped eigenvalue computer program. Measured natural frequencies of a steam turbine are also compared with computer predictions. Accuracy of critical speed prediction is shown to depend on accuracy of 1) the “free-free” rotor models, 2) the bearing stiffness and damping coefficients, and 3) the dynamic properties of the foundation, which can be represented by an impedance that must be determined by experimental measurements.

Synchronous response can be a very valuable tool for rotor dynamic analysis. It allows the user to determine rotor displacements over a wide speed range without having to perform a transient analysis at every speed increment. The method is typically used to calculate steady state displacements caused by a rotating imbalance force and the location of critical speeds. While the algorithm presented to perform linear synchronous response is straight forward, there are several modifications that can be made to provide the analyst more useful information.

Abstract Dynamic analysis of high speed gearing for the computation of critical speeds and dynamic factors is a must in a proper design, while some other dynamic characteristics of the system such as dynamic transmission error are to be determined for more critical designs. Numerous different models have been suggested for the dynamic analysis of geared systems. These models differ both in the effects included and in the basic assumptions made. A continuous system model is used in this analysis in order to determine the torsional natural frequencies of a gear shaft system composed of two gears, two shafts and two inertias representing the drive and the load. Gear mesh is modelled as a spring connected between two gears. The natural frequencies of the same system are also calculated by using a four degree of freedom classical discrete model in which shaft masses are ignored. The percentage differences in the natural frequencies calculated with the discrete and continuous system models are determined for several values of some nondimensional system parameters. The results are presented in graphical form in terms of the nondimensional parameters defined. Some conclusions which may be important for designers are drawn.
