Gyroscopic Effects

Spin-stabilized projectiles with course correction fuzes actuated by fixed canards have the problem of great coupling in both the normal and lateral directions due to intensive gyroscopic effects, which leads to inconsistent maneuverability in different directions. Due to the limited correction ability, which results from the miniaturization of the fuze and fixed canards, a target-aiming method is proposed here to make full use of the correction ability of the canards. From analysis on how the canards work and building an angular motion model, the correction characteristics of a spinning projectile with fixed canards have been studied, and the inconsistent maneuverability in different directions of the projectile has been explained and used to help establish the proposed target aiming method. Hardware-in-the-loop simulation based on a 155 mm howitzer shows that when the correction ability of fixed canards is unchanged, the proposed method can improve the striking accuracy by more than 20% when compared to the traditional method.

Abstract The barge-type foundation with moonpool(s) is a promising type of platform for floating offshore wind turbines, since the moonpool(s) could improve the hydrodynamic performance at particular frequencies and reduce the costs of construction. In this paper, the horizontal mean drift force and yaw drift moment of a barge-type platform with four moonpools are numerically and experimentally investigated. Physical model tests are carried out in a wave tank, where a 2MW vertical-axis wind turbine is modelled in the 1:100 scale. By varying the rotating speed of the turbine and the mass of the blades, the gyroscopic effects due to turbine rotations on the mean drift forces are experimentally examined. The wave diffraction and radiation code WAMIT is used to carry out numerical analysis of wave drift force and moment. The experimental results indicate that the influence of the rotations of a vertical-axis wind turbine on the sway drift force is generally not very significant. The predictions by WAMIT are in reasonable agreement with the measured data. Numerical results demonstrate that the horizontal mean drift force and yaw drift moment at certain frequencies could be reduced by moonpool(s).

Lumped Masses

Traditional rotor dynamics analysis programs make the assumption that disk components are rigid and can be treated as lumped masses. Several researchers have studied this assumption with specific analytical treatments designed to simulate disk flexibility. The general conclusions reached by these studies indicated disk flexibility has little effect on critical speeds but significantly influences natural frequencies. This apparent contradiction has been reexamined by using axisymmetric harmonic finite elements to directly represent both disk and shaft flexibility along with gyroscopic effects. Results from this improved analysis show that depending on the thickness-to-diameter (slenderness) ratio of the disk and the axial position of the disk on the shaft, there are significant differences in all natural frequencies, for both forward and backward modes, including synchronous crossings at critical speeds.

A method of selecting master degrees of freedom (DOFs) for rotating substructure is presented in this paper to obtain reduced 3D rotor models. Fixed modes of the substructure below thrice the operating frequency are analyzed. According to each mode shape, the DOFs at where main kinetic energy locates are selected as master DOFs to decrease missing of dynamic coupling. Additional DOFs may be selected based on traditional substructure method. In the stationary reference frame, frequency-dependent gyroscopic effects can be included as damping matrices changing with spin speed. Besides, by selecting appropriate substructure, localized damping and key parts of the rotor for analysis can be kept the same as the original model. A reduced model of a high pressure rotor amply demonstrated the capability of the method in reducing the model size and increasing the computational efficiency with less than two percent error.

Flywheel Rotor

In the high-speed, gyroscopic effects of the flywheel rotor greatly influence the rotor stability. The pole-zero points move to right of s-plane and the damping terms of the pole points become smaller. The stability of the system will get worse with the increasing of rotor speed when the traditional decentralized PD controller is used only. In the paper, a cross-feedback control with decentralized PD control is used for compensating gyroscopic effect. The simulation results show that the system stability is better using the cross-feedback control with decentralized PD control than using the traditional decentralized PD control.

The dynamic analysis of rotors with bladed disks has been investigated in detail over many decades and is reasonably well understood today. In contrast, the dynamic behaviour of two rotors that are coupled via a planetary gearbox is much less well understood. The planetary gearbox adds inertia, mass, stiffness, damping and gyroscopic moments to the system and can strongly affect the modal properties and the dynamic behaviour of the global rotating system. The main objective of this paper is to create a six degrees of freedom numerical model of a rotor system with a planetary gearbox and to investigate its effect on the coupled rotor system. The analysis is based on the newly developed finite element software “GEAROT” which provides axial, torsional and lateral deflections of the two shafts at different speeds via Timoshenko beam elements and also takes gyroscopic effects into account. The disks are currently considered as rigid and the bearings are modelled with isotropic stiffness elements in the translational and rotational directions. A novel planetary gearbox model has been developed, which takes the translational and rotational stiffness and the damping of the gearbox, as well as the masses and inertias of the sun gear, ring gear, planet gears and carrier into account. A rotating system with a planetary gearbox has been investigated with GEAROT. The gearbox mass and stiffness parameters are identified as having a significant effect on the modal behaviour of the rotor system, affecting its natural frequencies and mode shapes. The higher frequency modes are found to be more sensitive to the parameter changes as well as the modes which have a higher deflection at the location of the gearbox on the rotor system. Compared with a single shaft system, the presence of a gearbox introduces new global modes to the rotor system and decouples the mode shapes of the two shafts. The introduction of a planetary gearbox may also lead to an increase or a reduction of the frequency response of the rotor system based on gear parameter values.

Abstract An aircraft engine is an example of a rotating machine whose rotating imbalance will be transmitted as vibrational energy into the structure to which it is attached. There is considerable interest in understanding this energy transmission in order to design mounting systems, both passive and active, which can control this transmission the best possible way in order to reduce structurally borne noise in the cabin. It is a well established fact in acoustics[1] that in order to reduce perceived sound at the listener, the noise transmission path must be severed by 1) eliminating the source of the disturbance (usually difficult if not impossible), 2) preventing propagation of energy into the structure and ultimately to structural surfaces, 3) preventing radiation of sound energy from vibrating surfaces, and 4) preventing radiated sound from reaching the listener. In this paper we address only the prevention of energy transmission from the source into the supporting structure through use of some type of mounting system.
