Book Experimental and Theoretical Rotordynamic Coefficients and Leakage of Straight Smooth Annular Gas Seals

Download or read book Experimental and Theoretical Rotordynamic Coefficients and Leakage of Straight Smooth Annular Gas Seals written by Bradley Gray Kerr and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Results are presented for experimental and theoretical rotordynamic coefficients and leakage of straight smooth annular gas seals. Experimental rotordynamic coefficients were measured and trends in changes of rotordynamic coefficients with operating variables such as rotor speed, back-pressure, fluid preswirl, and seal clearance are analyzed. Experimental results show that cross-coupled stiffness coefficients are highly influenced by fluid preswirl and only moderately influenced by other operating parameters, whereas direct damping is nearly unaffected by changes in operating parameters. Effective damping, a good indicator of stability, is highly affected by fluid preswirl. Although rotordynamic coefficients of straight smooth annular gas seals are assumed to be frequency independent, experimental results suggest a frequency dependent nature at high back-pressures and high excitation frequencies. Experimental results for rotordynamic coefficients and leakage are compared with theoretical predictions of ISOTSEAL, an isothermal-flow, two-control-volume, bulk-flow rotordynamic analysis program. All rotordynamic coefficients are underpredicted. Direct stiffness is poorly predicted while cross-coupled stiffness and direct damping are predicted reasonably well. Leakage is also consistently under-predicted. Theory predicts a slight frequency dependent nature for a limited number of test configurations.

Book Impact of Rotor Surface Velocity  Leakage Models and Real Gas Properties on Rotordynamic Force Predictions of Gas Labyrinth Seals

Download or read book Impact of Rotor Surface Velocity Leakage Models and Real Gas Properties on Rotordynamic Force Predictions of Gas Labyrinth Seals written by Manish Rambhau Thorat and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rotordynamic coefficients of a gas labyrinth seal are assumed to be frequency independent. However, this assumption loses its validity as rotor surface velocity approaches Mach 1. The solution procedure of 1CV model by Childs and Scharrer which assumes frequency independent force coefficients is modified to allow for calculating frequency dependent force coefficients. A comparative study of the impact of using frequency-dependent model and the original frequency-independent model on stability analysis is made. The results indicate that frequency dependency of force coefficients should be accounted for in stability analysis as rotor surface velocity approaches a significant fraction of Mach number. The bulk flow rotordynamic analysis model by Childs and Scharrer is modified to investigate the impact of leakage-flow models on predictions. A number of leakage models are incorporated in the one-control volume model, and a comparative study is made. Kinetic energy carryover factor of a leakage equation is one of the dominant factors in seal cross-force generation. A leakage equation based on a model proposed by Gamal which uses Hodkinson's kinetic energy carryover factor is found to improve predictions of direct damping and cross-coupled stiffness. A test case is implemented to study the impact of variation of seal axial radial clearance on stability characteristics. The 1CV model by Childs and Scharrer and subsequent bulk flow models are based on the assumption of isothermal flow across the labyrinth seal. The 1CV model by Childs and Scharrer is modified to include energy equation, and the flow process is assumed to be adiabatic. However, predicted cross-coupled stiffness and direct damping coefficients using the new model do not compare well with the experimental results by Picardo as compared to the isothermal model. The impact of using real gas properties on static and rotordynamic characteristics of the seal is studied.

Gives descriptive accounts of the state of the art in several areas of the field and presents important mathematical or computational concepts, describing equations and formulas in physical terms for better understanding. Also offers tips for troubleshooting unstable machines and provides practical interpretations of vibration measurements.

Book excerpt: Cities and Their Vital Systems asks basic questions about the longevity, utility, and nature of urban infrastructures; analyzes how they grow, interact, and change; and asks how, when, and at what cost they should be replaced. Among the topics discussed are problems arising from increasing air travel and airport congestion; the adequacy of water supplies and waste treatment; the impact of new technologies on construction; urban real estate values; and the field of "telematics," the combination of computers and telecommunications that makes money machines and national newspapers possible.

Book Analytical Methods in Rotor Dynamics

Download or read book Analytical Methods in Rotor Dynamics written by Andrew D. Dimarogonas and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The design and construction of rotating machinery operating at supercritical speeds was, in the 1920s, an event of revolutionary importance for the then new branch of dynamics known as rotor dynamics. In the 1960s, another revolution occurred: In less than a decade, imposed by operational and economic needs, an increase in the power of turbomachinery by one order of magnitude took place. Dynamic analysis of complex rotor forms became a necessity, while the importance of approximate methods for dynamic analysis was stressed. Finally, the emergence of fracture mechanics, as a new branch of applied mechanics, provided analytical tools to investigate crack influence on the dynamic behavior of rotors. The scope of this book is based on all these developments. No topics related to the well-known classical problems are included, rather the book deals exclusively with modern high-power turbomachinery.

This book was released on 2018-08-18 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: IFToMM conferences have a history of success due to the various advances achieved in the field of rotor dynamics over the past three decades. These meetings have since become a leading global event, bringing together specialists from industry and academia to promote the exchange of knowledge, ideas, and information on the latest developments in the dynamics of rotating machinery. The scope of the conference is broad, including e.g. active components and vibration control, balancing, bearings, condition monitoring, dynamic analysis and stability, wind turbines and generators, electromechanical interactions in rotor dynamics and turbochargers. The proceedings are divided into four volumes. This third volume covers the following main topics: dynamic analysis and stability; electromechanical interactions in rotordynamics; nonlinear phenomena in rotordynamics; rotordynamics of micro, nano and cryogenic machines; and fluid structure interactions in rotordynamics.
