A procedure is presented for dynamic modeling of rotor-bearing systems which consist of rigid disks, distributed parameter finite rotor elements, and discrete bearings. The formulation is presented in both a fixed and rotating frame of reference. A finite element model including the effects of rotatory inertia, gyroscopic moments, and axial load is developed using the consistent matrix approach. A reduction of coordinates procedure is utilized to model elements with variable cross-section properties. The bearings may be nonlinear, however, only the linear stiffness and viscous damping case is considered. The natural whirl speeds and unbalance response of a typical overhung system is presented for two sets of bearing parameters: (i) undamped isotropic, (ii) undamped orthotropic. A comparison of results is made with an independent lumped mass analysis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
