In rotating machinery, vibration resonance with large amplitude and complex pattern occurs at critical speeds due to rotor imbalance and nonlinear effects. In this paper, a vibration control method is proposed for a rotor system supported by a ball bearing and an electro-magnetic bearing. In particular, a disturbance observer combined with the current delay estimation is implemented to improve the controller's ability of compensating for system's nonlinear effects and uncertainty. As a result, the rotor vibration is suppressed to very small amplitudes in the entire operating speed range. The proposed method is validated through numerical simulations and experiments.

In rotating machinery, rotor unbalance causes many resonances at critical speeds corresponding to different modes. In this paper, a vibration control method for rotor systems utilizing disturbance observer is proposed. The nonlinear terms, unbalance, parameter variations, and uncertain terms of a rotor system are lumped into a disturbance term, and this term is canceled by using disturbance observer. As a result, the vibrations are suppressed to small amplitudes all over the rotational speed range. Simultaneously, unbalance of the first mode is estimated from the information of control force of disturbance observer. Moreover, the effects of parameter errors of the control system are also investigated. The validity of the proposed method is verified through numerical simulations and experiments.

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.

The unbalanced vibration of the spindle rotor system in high-speed cutting processes not only seriously affects the surface quality of the machined products, but also greatly reduces the service life of the electric spindle. However, since the unbalanced vibration is often distributed on different node positions, the multinode unbalanced vibration greatly exacerbates the difficulty of vibration control. Based on the traditional influence coefficient method for controlling the vibration of a flexible rotor, the optimal influence coefficient control method with weights for multinode unbalanced vibration of flexible electric spindle rotors is proposed. The unbalanced vibration of all nodes on the whole spindle rotor is used as the control objective function to achieve optimal control. The simulation results show that the method has an obvious control effect on multinode unbalanced vibration.

In this paper, a new electro-rheological multi-layer squeeze film damper (ERMSFD in short) is designed first and the constitutional Reynolds equation is established. Then the behavior of the rotor system is analyzed, the vibration around the first critical speed is suppressed and an on/off control is proposed to control the large amplitude around the first critical speed. A control method is used to suppress the sudden unbalance response. Finally, experiments are carried out to investigate the behavior of the rotor system to prove the effectiveness of the ER damper to suppress the vibration around the critical speed and the sudden unbalance response.

A shear mode magnetorheological (MR) elastomer damper is designed and manufactured, in which the MR elastomer is made by mixing RTV silicone, carbonyl iron particles and silicone oil, and solidifying under magnetic field. A flexible cantilever rotor system with single disk is constructed, and the controllability, effectiveness and stability of vibration control for the imbalance response of the rotor system using the MR damper are experimentally studied. From the test, it is found that as the strength of applied magnetic field increases, the damping and stiffness of the damper are increased; the critical speeds of the rotor system supported on the MR damper is increased distinctly, and the vibration at two critical speeds are restrained; the on-off control method may be used to control the rotor vibration while passing through the two critical speeds. The study shows that the shear mode MR elastomer damper is suitable for active vibration control of flexible rotor.

Imbalance vibration control for rotor is the main factor affecting attitude control performance for satellite using magnetically suspended control moment gyro (MSCMG). The method for adaptive imbalance vibration control for the rotor of variable-speed MSCMG with active-passive magnetic bearings is investigated in this paper. Firstly, on the basis of feedforward compensation, a rotor model for the imbalance vibration of variable-speed MSCMG with active-passive magnetic bearings is built, and the main factor affecting imbalance vibration compensation is also analyzed. Then, power amplifier parameter modifier with control switches is designed to eliminate the effects of time-varying parameters on the imbalance vibration compensation precision. The adaptive imbalance vibration control based on this modifier not only has high compensation precision, but also can control the frequency of parameter adjustment according to the compensation precision. Besides, since the passive magnetic bearing displacement stiffness of the rotor of variable-speed MSCMG with active-passive magnetic bearings cannot be obtained accurately, displacement stiffness modifier is employed. Finally, stability analysis is made on the imbalance vibration control system, and the range of rotation speed to ensure system stability is derived. Simulation results show that, imbalance vibration control method proposed in this paper can suppress the imbalance vibration of the rotor of variable-speed MSCMG with active-passive magnetic bearings effectively and has high precision.

As one of the key technologies of high-temperature gas-cooled reactor, primary helium circulator–equipped active magnetic bearing provides driving force for primary helium cooling system. However, repetitive periodic vibration produced by rotor imbalance may introduce risks to primary helium circulator (even for high-temperature gas-cooled reactors). First, this article analyzes a periodic component extraction algorithm which is widely used in active magnetic bearing rotor unbalance control methods and points out the problem that the periodic component extraction algorithm occupies numerous computing resources which cannot satisfy the real-time request of active magnetic bearing control system. Then, a novel iterative learning control algorithm based on the iteration before last iteration of system information (iterative learning control-2) and a plug-in parallel control mechanism based on the existing control system are put forward, meanwhile, an integrated independent distributed active magnetic bearing control system is designed to solve the problem. Finally, both the simulation and experiment are carried out, respectively. The corresponding results show that the control method and control system proposed in this article have significant suppression effect on the repetitive periodic vibration of the active magnetic bearing system without degrading the real-time requirement and can provide important technical support for the safe and stable operation of the primary helium circulator in high-temperature gas-cooled reactor.
