Rod fastened rotor is widely used in gas turbine, aero engine, and other occasions. The bending stiffness of the contact interface directly affects the stable operation of the rotor. Dynamic model of the rod fastened rotor-bearing system has been established considering nonuniform stiffness of interface. The motion equation of this system has been deduced from Lagrange’s equations. The linear dynamic characteristics of this rotor has been investigated, such as Campbell diagram, critical speed, and formation, and the nonlinear characteristics of this system, such as chaos and bifurcation, has been investigated too. The result shows that “bistable state” characteristic appeared on the rod fastened rotor system; that is, there are two critical speeds for each order, and they are all positive precession critical speed, and the amplitude response to the lower critical speed is much larger than that its counterparts to the higher critical speed. In terms of nonlinear characteristics, the rod fastened bearing system has experienced periodic 1 motion, multiple periodic motion, quasi-periodic motion, periodic 1 motion, and chaotic motion successively.

In this paper the rotor dynamic characters of the bearing system in turbocharger are researched. The computing method of rotor dynamic is also analyzed. Through modeling the components and parts of bearing system and rotor dynamic model, the three critical speeds are computed and analyzed. By comparing the working speed and critical speed, we can judge that whether the turbocharger works nearby the critical speed or not. If it does, then how to make the turbocharger work stably is also researched. At the same time, how the key design parameters, such as the shaft length and diameter, impact on rotor dynamic character is discussed in detail. In the end, an optimization strategy of the rotor structure is proposed to make the working speed be away from the critical speed.

This paper investigates the dynamic characteristics of a composite rotor fastened by rods. Contact stiffness and equivalent bending stiffness between discs with different rod preloads of the rotor are obtained respectively by using the elastic and elastic-plastic contact theory. The finite element model of rotor-bearing system is built with Timoshenko beam elements. Critical speeds are respectively calculated with and without the consideration of contact effect, including the changing bearing dynamic coefficients. A test rig of rod fastening rotor-bearing system has been constructed to verify the numerical model results. The results show that the critical speed increases with rod preload and it keeps almost constant when the rod preload reaches a certain value, called preload saturation. The experiments demonstrate that the rod fastening rotor under preload saturation has the similar dynamic characteristics as integral rotor, such as the critical speed and backward whirl with asymmetric support stiffnesses. This kind of rotors which are under preload saturation can be analyzed and designed as an integral one without considering the contact effect. The study gives referential recommendations for analysis and design of a class of composite rotors which contain discs and rods.

A comprehensive multi-objective optimisation methodology is presented and applied to a practical aero engine rotor system. A variant of Nondominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA) is employed to simultaneously minimise the weight and unbalance response of the rotor system with restriction imposed on critical speed. Rayleigh beam is used in Finite Element Method (FEM) implemented in-house developed MATLAB code for analysis. The results of practical interest are achieved through bearing-pedestal model and eigenvalue based Rayleigh damping model. Pareto optimal solutions generated and best solution selected with the help of response surface approximation of the Pareto optimal front. The outcome of the paper is a minimum weight and minimum unbalance response rotor system which satisfied the critical speed constraints.

Rotor rub-impact has a great influence on the stability and safety of a rotating machine. This study develops a dynamic model of a two-span rotor-bearing system with rubbing faults, and numerical simulation is carried out. Moreover, frictional screws are used to simulate a rubbing state by establishing a set of experimental devices that can simulate rotor-stator friction in the rotor system. Through the experimental platform and its analysis system, the rubbing experiment was conducted, and the vibration of the rotor-bearing system before and after the critical speed is observed. Rotors running under normal condition, local slight rubbing, and severe rubbing throughout the entire cycle are simulated. Dynamic trajectories, frequency spectrum diagrams, chart of axis track, and Poincare maps are used to analyze the features of the rotor-bearing system with rub-impact faults under various parameters. The vibration characteristics of rub impact are obtained. Results show that the dynamic characteristics of the rotor-bearing system are affected by the change in velocity and degree of impact friction. The findings are helpful in further understanding the dynamic characteristics of the rub-impact fault of the two-span rotor-bearing system and provide reference for fault diagnosis.

Multiple freedom degrees model of rotor-bearing system taking many factors into account is established, the Newmark-β and shooting method are combined during the stability analysis of periodic motion in such system. The paper focused on the influence law of two eccentric phase difference on the instability speed of rotor-bearing system. The results have shown that the instability speed rises constantly with the eccentric phase difference angle increasing in small eccentricity system. When the two unbalance be in opposite direction, the system reached its maximum instability speed. However, the unstable bifurcation generates mutation phenomenon for large eccentricity system with the eccentric phase difference angle increasing. In summary, the larger initial phase angle can inhibit system instability partly. The conclusions have provided a theoretical reference for vibration control and stability design of the more complex rotor-bearing system.

In recent years, spiral-grooved air bearing systems have attracted much attention and are especially useful in precision instruments and machines with spindles that rotate at high speed. Load support can be multidirectional and this type of bearing can also be very rigid. Studies show that some of the design problems encountered are dynamic and include critical speed, nonlinearity, gas film pressure, unbalanced rotors, and even poor design, all of which can result in the generation of chaotic aperiodic motion and instability under certain conditions. Such irregular motion on a large scale can cause severe damage to a machine or instrument. Therefore, understanding the conditions under which aperiodic behaviour and vibration arise is crucial for prevention. In this study, numerical analysis, including the Finite Difference and Differential Transformation Methods, is used to study these effects in detail in a front opposed-hemispherical spiral-grooved air bearing system. It was found that different rotor masses and bearing number could cause undesirable behaviour including periodic, subperiodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic motion. The results obtained in this study can be used as a basis for future bearing system design and the prevention of instability.
