Nonlinear dynamic analysis of a rub-impact rotor supported by oil film bearings

A general model of a rub-impact rotor system is set up and supported by oil film journal bearings. The Jacobian matrix of the system response is used to calculate the Floquet multipliers, and the stability of periodic response is determined via the Floquet theory. The nonlinear dynamic characteristics of the system are investigated when the rotating speed and damping ratio is used as control parameter. The analysis methods are inclusive of bifurcation diagrams, Poincaré maps, phase plane portraits, power spectrums, and vibration responses of the rotor center and bearing center. The analysis reveals a complex dynamic behavior comprising periodic, multi-periodic, chaotic, and quasi-periodic response. The modeling results thus obtained by using the proposed method will contribute to understanding and controlling of the nonlinear dynamic behaviors of the rotor-bearing system.     

Nonlinear analysis of a rub-impact rotor supported by turbulent couple stress fluid film journal bearings under quadratic damping

This work reports a numerical study undertaken to investigate the dynamic response of a rotor supported by two turbulent flow model journal bearings with nonlinear suspension and lubricated with couple stress fluid under quadratic damping. This may be the first time that analysis of rotor-bearing system considered the quadratic damping effect. The dynamic response of the rotor center and bearing center are studied. The analysis methods employed in this study are inclusive of the dynamic trajectories of the rotor center and bearing center, power spectra, Poincaré maps and bifurcation diagrams. The maximum Lyapunov exponent analysis is also used to identify the onset of chaotic motion. The modeling results provide some useful insights into the design and development of rotor-bearing system for rotating machinery that operates at highly rotational speed and highly nonlinear regimes.     

Vibration characteristics of a hydraulic generator unit rotor system with parallel misalignment and rub-impact

The object of this research aims at the hydraulic generator unit rotor system. According to fault problems of the generator rotor local rubbing caused by the parallel misalignment and mass eccentricity, a dynamic model for the rotor system coupled with misalignment and rub-impact is established. The dynamic behaviors of this system are investigated using numerical integral method, as the parallel misalignment, mass eccentricity and bearing stiffness vary. The nonlinear dynamic responses of the generator rotor and turbine rotor with coupling faults are analyzed by means of bifurcation diagrams, Poincaré maps, axis orbits, time histories and amplitude spectrum diagrams. Various nonlinear phenomena in the system, such as periodic, three-periodic and quasi-periodic motions, are studied with the change of the parallel misalignment. The results reveal that vibration characteristics of the rotor system with coupling faults are extremely complex and there are some low frequencies with large amplitude in the 0.3–0.4× components. As the increase in mass eccentricity, the interval of nonperiodic motions will be continuously moved forward. It suggests that the reduction in mass eccentricity or increase in bearing stiffness could preclude nonlinear vibration. These might provide some important theory references for safety operating and exact identification of the faults in rotating machinery.     

Fault diagnosis of a rotor bearing system using response surface method

Dynamic analysis of a high-speed rotor bearing systems is challenged by their highly nonlinear and complex properties. Hence, an approximate response surface method (RSM) is utilized to analyze the effects of design and operating parameters on the vibration signature of a rotor-bearing system. This paper focuses on accurate performance prediction, which is essential to the design of high performance rotor bearing system. It considers distributed defects such as internal radial clearance and surface waviness of the bearing components. In the mathematical formulation the contacts between the rolling elements and the races are considered as nonlinear springs, whose stiffnesses are obtained by using Hertzian elastic contact deformation theory. The governing differential equations of motion are obtained by using Lagrange's equations. In terms of the feature that the nonlinear bearing forces act on the system, a reduction method and corresponding integration technique is used to increase the numerical stability and decrease computer time for system analysis. Parameters effects are analyzed together and its influence considered with DOE and Surface Response Methodology are used to predict dynamic response of a rotor-bearing system.

Dynamic characteristics of a rub-impact rotor-bearing system for hydraulic generating set under unbalanced magnetic pull

Electromagnetic and mechanical forces are main reasons resulting in vibrations in hydraulic generating set. The non-symmetric air-gap between the rotor and stator creates an attraction force called unbalanced magnetic pull (UMP). The UMP can produce large oscillations which will be dangerous to the machines. In this paper, the nonlinear dynamic characteristics of a rotor-bearing system with rub-impact for hydraulic generating set under the UMP are studied. The rubbing model is established based on the classic impact theory. Through the numerical calculation, the excitation current, mass eccentricity, stiffness of shaft and radial stiffness of stator are used as control parameters to investigate their effect on the system, by means of bifurcation diagrams, Poincaré maps, trajectories and frequency spectrums. Various nonlinear phenomena including periodic, quasi-periodic and chaotic motions are observed. The results reveal that the UMP has significant influence in the response of the rotor system that the continuous increase in the excitation current induces the alternation of quasi-periodic and chaotic motions, the co-occurrence of oil whip and rub in a wide excitation range aggravates the vibration and leads to the instability of the system. In addition, the large eccentricity and radial stiffness of stator, as well as the small stiffness of shaft may lead to the occurrence of full annular rubbing while increasing the stiffness of the shaft can play an important role of suppressing the chaotic motion, reducing the vibration and improving stability of the system.

Response analysis of a dual-disc rotor system with multi-unbalances–multi-fixed-point rubbing faults

Rotor unbalance and rub-impact are major concerns in rotating machinery. In order to study the dynamic characteristics of these machinery faults, a dual-disc rotor system capable of describing the mechanical vibration resulting from multi-unbalances and multi-fixed-point rub-impact faults is formulated using Euler beam element. The Lankarani–Nikravesh model is used to describe the nonlinear impact forces between discs and casing convex points, and the Coulomb model is applied to simulate the frictional characteristics. To predict the moment of rub-impact happening, a linear interpolation method is carried out in the numerical simulation. The coupling equations are numerically solved using a combination of the linear interpolation method and the Runge–Kutta method. Then, the dynamic behaviours of the rotor system are analysed by the bifurcation diagram, whirl orbit, Poincaré map and spectrum plot. The effects of rotating speed, phase difference of unbalances, convex point of casing and initial clearance on the responses are investigated in detail. The numerical results reveal that a variety of motion types are found, such as periodic, multi-periodic and quasi-periodic motions. Moreover, the energy transfer between the compressor disc and the turbine disc occurs in the multi-fixed-point rubbing faults. Compared with the parameters of the turbine disc, those of the compressor disc can affect the motion of the rotor system more significantly. That is, the responses exhibit simple 1T-periodic motion in the wide range of rotating speed under the conditions of sharp convex point and larger initial clearance. These forms of dynamic characteristics can be effectively used to diagnose the fixed-point rub-impact faults.

Bifurcation diagrams, waterfall plots, Poincaré maps, spectrum plots and rotor orbits are drawn to analyze various nonlinear phenomena and system unstable processes. Theoretical results from numerical analysis are in good agreement with results from experiments. Conclusions are drawn and prove that this study will contribute to the further understanding of nonlinear dynamics and stability of the rotor system with the fluid-induced forces from oil–film bearings and the seals.     

NONLINEAR NUMERICAL ANALYSIS OF A FLEXIBLE ROTOR EQUIPPED WITH SQUEEZE COUPLE STRESS FLUID FILM JOURNAL BEARINGS

This study performs a dynamic analysis of a rotor supported by two squeeze couple stress fluid film journal bearings with nonlinear suspension.The numerical results show that the stability of the system varies with the non-dimensional speed ratios and the dimensionless parameter l*.It is found that the system is more stable with higher dimensionless parameter l*. Thus it can conclude that the rotor-bearing system lubricated with the couple stress fluid is more stable than that with the conventional Newtonian fluid.The modeling results thus obtained by using the method proposed in this paper can be used to predict the stability of the rotor-bearing system and the undesirable behavior of the rotor and bearing center can be avoided.     

Application of a hybrid numerical method to the bifurcation analysis of a rigid rotor supported by a spherical gas journal bearing system

The nonlinear dynamic behavior of a rigid rotor supported by a spherical gas journal bearing system is analyzed using a hybrid method combining the differential transformation method (DTM) and the finite difference method (FDM). The analytical results reveal that the bearing system has a complex dynamic behavior comprising periodic, subharmonic, and quasi-periodic responses of the rotor center. The evolution in the dynamic behavior of the bearing system is systematically examined as the rotor mass and bearing number are increased. The analytical results are found to be in good agreement with those of other numerical methods. Hence, the validity of the proposed hybrid method as a means of gaining insights into the nonlinear dynamics of spherical gas film rotor-bearing systems is confirmed.     

Effects of nonlinear damping suspension on nonperiodic motions of a flexible rotor in journal bearings

Nonlinear damping suspension is a promising method to be used in a rotor-bearing system for vibration isolation between the bearing and environment. However, the nonlinearity of the suspension may influence the stability of the rotor-bearing system. In this paper, the motions of a flexible rotor in short journal bearings with nonlinear damping suspension are studied. A computational method is used to solve the equations of motion, and the bifurcation diagrams, orbits, Poincaré maps, and amplitude spectra are used to display the motions. The results show that the effect of the nonlinear damping suspension on the motions of the rotor-bearing system depends on the speed of rotor: (a) For low speeds, the rotor- bearing system presents the same motion pattern under the nonlinear damping ( \(p=0.5, 2, 3\) ) suspension as for the linear damping ( \(p=1\) ) suspension; (b) For high speeds, the effect of nonlinear damping depends on a combination of the damping exponent and damping coefficient. The square root damping model ( \(p=0.5\) ) shows a wider stable speed range than the linear damping for large damping coefficients. The quadratic damping ( \(p=2\) ) shows similar results to linear damping with some special damping coefficients. The cubic damping ( \(p=3\) ) shows more stable response than the linear damping in general.

Numerical and experimental analysis of the first-and second-mode instability in a rotor-bearing system

Aiming at the oil film instability of the sliding bearing at high speeds, a rotor test rig is built to study the non-linear dynamic behaviours caused by the first- and second-mode instability. A lumped mass model (LMM) of the rotor system considering the gyroscopic effect is established, in which the graphite self-lubricating bearing and the sliding bearing are simulated by a spring–damping model and a nonlinear oil film force model based on the assumption of short bearings, respectively. Moreover, a finite element model is also established to verify the validity of the LMM. The researches focus on the effects of two loading conditions (the first- and second-mode imbalance excitation) on the onset of instability and nonlinear responses of the rotor-bearing system by using the amplitude–frequency response, spectrum cascade, vibration waveform, orbit, and Poincaré map. Finally, experiments are carried out on the test rig. Simulation and experiment all show that oil film instability can excite complicated combination frequency components about the rotating frequency and the first-/second-mode whirl/whip frequency.
