Single-Plane Auto-Balancing of Rigid Rotors

چکیده
This paper presents an analytical study of single-plane automatic balancing of statically and dynamically unbalanced rigid rotors, considering also the effect of partial unbalance compensation and vibration reduction. We consider a rotor equipped with a selfbalancing device consisting of a circular track with moving balls to compensate for rotor unbalance. The investigations include an analysis of the equations of motion and determination of conditions for existence and stability of synchronous motions. Different solutions for the existence conditions correspond to different types of synchronous motions, including compensatory motions, with the elements’ positions providing complete or partial compensation of unbalanced forces as well as reduction of vibrations. A stability analysis serves to determine the actual angular position of elements at any rotational speed and to find the speed range with stable unbalance compensation. Numerical simulations confirm the analytical results except for those in the immediate vicinity of critical speeds.

متن کاملSupervisory Adaptive Balancing of Rigid Rotors during Acceleration
This paper investigates active real-time balancing of rigid rotors during the transient time of acceleration. First, the governing equation of motion of a rigid rotor is formulated. A parametric adaptive control scheme is then designed based on this dynamic model. An ordinary recursive least squares estimation method is used to estimate parameters in this adaptive control scheme. A supervisory ...
متن کاملSommerfeld-effect in Automatic Balancing
Automatic balancing devices, comprising several balls in circular tracks, can efficiently compensate rigid rotor unbalance within certain ranges of rotational speed. However, near critical speeds the vibration level can be comparatively high due to the phenomenon, which is similar, but not identical to the well-known Sommerfeld-effect in unbalanced rotors with a limited driving moment. The pres...
متن کاملImbalance Estimation for Speed-Varying Rigid Rotors Using Time-Varying Observer
Rigid rotor dynamic model is widely used to model rotating machinery. In this paper, a speed-varying transient rigid rotor model is developed in the state space form. The states of this model are augmented to include imbalance forces and moments. A time-varying observer can then be designed for the augmented system by using canonical transformation. After obtaining an estimation of the imbalanc...
متن کاملAuto-Tuning Adaptive Supervisory Control of Single-Plane Active Balancing Systems
Adaptive influence-coefficient methods have proven successful at controlling unbalance-induced vibration of rotating machinery without requiring a priori knowledge of machine dynamics. If initial influence estimates are inaccurate, however, vibration may become worse temporarily before the estimation converges. An auto-tuning method is presented here that adjusts adaptive “gain” parameters duri...
