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.     

Nonlinear behavior analysis of geared rotor bearing system featuring confluence transmission

In this paper, the nonlinear vibration characteristics of geared rotor bearing system and the interactions among gears, shafts, and plain journal bearings were studied. First, with the consideration of backlash, transmission error, time-varying mesh stiffness, and layout parameters, the dynamic model of geared rotor bearing system featuring confluence transmission was proposed. The nonlinear oil-film forces were computed with the Reynolds equation for finite-length journal bearings. Second, the responses of meshing vibration and bearing vibration were discussed. The numerical results revealed that the system exhibited a diverse range of periodic, sub-harmonic, and chaotic behaviors. Under different ranges of rolling frequency, the system got into chaos state through different roads. Moreover, in lower frequency, meshing vibration showed coexist of different periodic motions. Lastly, couplings of nonlinear oil-film force and nonlinear gear mesh force were discussed through a range of rolling frequencies. Gear-bearing dynamic interactions were demonstrated through the analysis of dynamic gear loads and dynamic bearing loads, and the coupling effect behaved different when rolling frequency changed.

Nonlinear analysis of a rub-impact rotor-bearing system with initial permanent rotor bow

A general model of a rub-impact rotor-bearing system with initial permanent bow is set up and the corresponding governing motion equation is given. The nonlinear oil-film forces from the journal bearing are obtained under the short bearing theory. The rubbing model is assumed to consist of the radial elastic impact and the tangential Coulomb type of friction. Through numerical calculation, rotating speeds, initial permanent bow lengths and phase angles between the mass eccentricity direction and the rotor permanent bow direction are used as control parameters to investigate their effect on the rub-impact rotor-bearing system with the help of bifurcation diagrams, Lyapunov exponents, Poincaré maps, frequency spectrums and orbit maps. Complicated motions, such as periodic, quasi-periodic even chaotic vibrations, are observed. Under the influence of the initial permanent bow, different routes to chaos are found and the speed when the rub happens is changed greatly. Corresponding results can be used to diagnose the rub-impact fault in this kind of rotor systems and this study may contribute to a further understanding of the nonlinear dynamics of such a rub-impact rotor-bearing system with initial permanent bow.     

Coupled lateral-torsional-axial vibrations of a helical gear-rotor-bearing system

Considering the axial and radial loads, a math- ematical model of angular contact ball bearing is deduced with Hertz contact theory. With the coupling effects of lateral, torsional and axial vibrations taken into account, a lumped-parameter nonlinear dynamic model of helical gearrotor-bearing system （HGRBS） is established to obtain the transmission system dynamic response to the changes of dif- ferent parameters. The vibration differential equations of the drive system are derived through the Lagrange equation, which considers the kinetic and potential energies, the dis- sipative function and the internal/external excitation. Based on the Runge-Kutta numerical method, the dynamics of the HGRBS is investigated, which describes vibration properties of HGRBS more comprehensively. The results show that the vibration amplitudes have obvious fluctuation, and the frequency multiplication and random frequency components become increasingly obvious with changing rotational speed and eccentricity at gear and bearing positions. Axial vibration of the HGRBS also has some fluctuations. The bearing has self-variable stiffness frequency, which should be avoided in engineering design. In addition, the bearing clearance needs little attention due to its slightly discernible effect on vibration response. It is suggested that a careful examination should be made in modelling the nonlinear dynamic behavior of a helical gear-rotor-bearing system.

An investigation on lateral and torsional coupled vibrations of high power density PMSM rotor caused by electromagnetic excitation

Electromagnetic excitation in high power density permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSMs) due to eccentricity is a significant concern in industry; however, the treatment of lateral and torsional coupled vibrations caused by electromagnetic excitation is rarely addressed, yet it is very important for evaluating the stability of dynamic rotor vibrations. This study focuses on an analytical method for analyzing the stability of coupled lateral/torsional vibrations in rotor systems caused by electromagnetic excitation in a PMSM. An electromechanically coupled lateral/torsional dynamic model of a PMSM Jeffcott rotor is derived using a Lagrange–Maxwell approach. Equilibrium stability was analyzed using a linearized matrix of the equation describing the system. The stability criteria of coupled torsional–lateral motions are provided, and the influences of the electromagnetic and mechanical parameters on mechanical vibration stability and nonlinear behavior were investigated. These results provide better understanding of the nonlinear response of an eccentric PMSM rotor system and are beneficial for controlling and diagnosing eccentricity.

Dimensionless modeling and nonlinear analysis of a coupled pitch–plunge–leadlag airfoil-based piezoaeroelastic energy harvesting system

In this paper, an airfoil-based piezoaeroelastic energy harvesting system is proposed with an additional supporting device to harvest the mechanical energy from the leadlag motion. A dimensionless dynamic model is built considering the large-effective-angle-of-attack vibrations causing (1) the nonlinear coupling between the pitch–plunge–leadlag motions, (2) the inertia nonlinearity, and (3) the aerodynamic nonlinearity modeled by the ONERA dynamic stall model. Cubic hardening stiffness is introduced in the pitch degree of freedom for persistent vibrations with acceptable amplitude beyond the flutter boundary. The nonlinear aeroelastic response and the average power output are numerically studied. Limit cycle oscillations are observed and, as the flow velocity exceeds a secondary critical speed, the system experiences complex vibrations. The power output from the leadlag motion is smaller than that from the plunge motion, whereas the gap is narrowed with increasing flow velocity. Case studies are performed toward the effects of several dimensionless system parameters, including the nonlinear torsional stiffness, airfoil mass eccentricity, airfoil radius of gyration, mass of the supporting devices, and load resistances in the external circuits. The optimal parameter values for the power outputs from the plunge and leadlag motions are, respectively, obtained. Beyond the secondary critical speed, it is shown that the variations of the power outputs with those parameters become irregular with fluctuations and multiple local maximums. The bifurcation analysis shows the mutual transitions between the limit cycle oscillations, multi-periodic vibrations, and possible chaos. The influences of these complex vibrations on the power outputs are discussed.

Nonlinear dynamic force transmissibility of a flywheel rotor supported by angular contact ball bearings

The dynamic force transmissibility (DFT) of aerospace flywheel rotor system (FRS) supported by angular contact ball bearings (ACBBs) is examined in this paper. The influence of combined loads and contact angle variation is considered in the Sjovall formula to accurately solve the load distribution and nonlinear stiffness of ACBB. Subsequently, the lateral vibration model of FRS is established by considering the nonlinear stiffness characteristics of ACBB. The DFT of the system is solved via harmonic balance method and arc length continuation, and the stability of the results is determined. Numerical integration and dynamic tests are utilized to verify the accuracy of harmonic balance results. Based on the proposed model, the effects of rotor unbalance excitation, axial preload, and rotor damping on the DFT of the system are discussed. The soft-stiff transition phenomenon is observed in terms of the varying supporting stiffness of ACBB wherein deformation is measured under axial preload. The value of rotor unbalanced mass determines the nonlinear characteristics of FRS. The results provide an important reference for dynamic performance evaluation and vibration isolation device design of aerospace FRS.

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.     

Robust control for MIMO hybrid dynamical system of underwater vehicles by composite adaptive fuzzy estimation of uncertainties

An organization structure of global oscillation with respect to a cracked rotor system with oil-film force is investigated in this paper. We profit from GPU cluster parallel computing to present a number of high-quality phase diagrams, and exhibit global dynamic characteristics of the system. An interesting scenario, “eye” of chaos, is discovered in this cracked rotor system, emerging as the accumulation limit of forward and reverse period-doubling bifurcation cascades. In this system, it is a common phenomenon that the vibration response of the rotor presents three typical characteristics in parameter space with the rotation speed increasing. Moreover, these phase diagrams assist us to identify multi-attractor coexisting that makes the dynamics behavior of this system become more enrich and complex. These results we represent get us better to understand the nonlinear response of the cracked rotor system and are beneficial to control and diagnose the crack.
