Imbalance Vibration Control of Active Magnetic Bearing Rotor System Based on Improved Synchronous Rotating Frame Transformation

In this paper, in order to solve the problem of unbalance vibration of rigid rotor system supported by the active magnetic bearing (AMB), automatic balancing method is applied to suppress the unbalance vibration of the rotor system. Firstly, considering the dynamic and static imbalance of the rotor, the detailed dynamic equations of the AMB-rigid rotor system are established according to Newton’s second law. Then, in order to rotate the rotor around the inertia axis, the notch filter with phase compensation is used to eliminate the synchronous control current. Finally, the variable-step fourth-order Runge–Kutta iteration method is used to solve the unbalanced vibration response of the rotor system in MATLAB simulation. The effects of the rotational speed and phase compensation angle on the unbalanced vibration control are analysed in detail. It is found that the synchronous control currents would increase rapidly with the increase of rotational speed if the unbalance vibration cannot be controlled. When the notch filter with phase shift is used to balance the rotor system automatically, the control current is reduced significantly. It avoids the saturation of the power amplifier and reduces the vibration response of the rotor system. The rotor system can be stabilized over the entire operating speed range by adjusting the compensation phase of the notch filter. The method in the paper is easy to implement, and the research result can provide theoretical support for the unbalance vibration control of AMB-rotor systems.

Gyroscopic Effects

Synchronous vibration, a common issue in active magnetic bearing (AMB) system, is mainly caused by mass imbalance of the rotor. It comes with high-power consumption and serious impact on the housing base, dramatically degrading the performance of AMB. Magnetically suspended flywheel (MSFW), which owns a flat rotor and consequently shows strong gyroscopic effects even at low operating speed, requires additional attention not only for suppressing the synchronous vibration but also for maintaining the overall stability faced with the coupled dynamics. In this work, in order to suppress the vibration torques in MSFW with significant gyroscopic effects, an improved synchronous rotating frame- (SRF-) based control method is proposed. The proposed method introduces the compensation phase for stability adjustment and aims at simultaneously suppressing the synchronous components in the coupled axes. Firstly, the vibration torque model of MSFW is established, and the baseline control strategy for suspension and gyroscopic effects restrain is derived. Then, the principle and implementation of the improved SRF-based vibration torque method are analyzed, which aims at suppressing the synchronous vibration torques through attenuating synchronous components in coil currents. Moreover, the stability of the overall closed-loop system is analyzed. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed method is verified through simulation and experimental results.
