For a magnetically levitated flexible rotor (MLFR), the amount of residual imbalance not only generates undesired vibrations, but also results in excessive bending, which may cause it hit to the auxiliary bearings. Thus, balancing below the critical speed is essential for the MLFR to prevent the impact. This paper proposes a balancing method of high precision and high efficiency, basing on virtual trial-weights. First, to reduce the computed error of rotor's mode shapes, a synchronous notch filter is inserted into the active magnetic bearing (AMB) controller, achieving a free support status. Then, AMBs provide the rotor with the synchronous electromagnetic forces (SEFs) to simulate the trial-weights. The SEFs with the initial angles varying from 0 deg to 360 deg in the rotational frame system result in continuous changes in the MLFR's deflection. Last, correction masses are calculated according to the changes. Compared to the trail-weights method, the new method needs not test-runs, which improves the balancing efficiency. Compared to the no trail-weights method, the new method does not require a precise model of the rotor-bearing system, which is difficult to acquire in the real system. Experiment results show that the novel method can reduce the residual imbalance effectively and accurately.

This paper is concerned with the effect of a thrust active magnetic bearing (TAMB) on the stability and bifurcation of an active magnetic bearing rotor system (AMBRS). The shaft is flexible and modeled by using the finite element method that can take the effects of inertia and shear into consideration. The model is reduced by a component mode synthesis method, which can conveniently account for nonlinear magnetic forces and moments of the bearing. Then the system equations are obtained by combining the equations of the reduced mechanical system and the equations of the decentralized PID controllers. This study focuses on the influence of nonlinearities on the stability and bifurcation of T periodic motion of the AMBRS subjected to the influences of both journal and thrust active magnetic bearings and mass eccentricity simultaneously. In the stability analysis, only periodic motion is investigated. The periodic motions and their stability margins are obtained by using shooting method and path-following technique. The local stability and bifurcation behaviors of periodic motions are obtained by using Floquet theory. The results indicate that the TAMB and mass eccentricity have great influence on nonlinear stability and bifurcation of the T periodic motion of system, cause the spillover of system nonlinear dynamics and degradation of stability and bifurcation of T periodic motion. Therefore, sufficient attention should be paid to these factors in the analysis and design of a flexible rotor system equipped with both journal and thrust magnetic bearings in order to ensure system reliability.
