DYNAMICS OF ROTATING MACHINES This book equips the reader to understand every important aspect of the dynamics of rotating machines. Will the vibration be large? What influences machine stability? How can the vibration be reduced? Which sorts of rotor vibration are the worst? The book develops this understanding initially using extremely simple models for each phenomenon, in which (at most) four equations capture the behavior. More detailed models are then developed based on finite element (FE) analysis, to enable the accurate simulation of R is available the relevant phenomena for real machines. Analysis software compatible with MATLAB for download from the book’s Web site, www.cambridge.org/friswell, and novices to rotordynamics can expect to make good predictions of critical speeds and rotating mode shapes within days. The book is structured more for self-study than as a reference handbook and, as such, provides readers with more than 100 worked examples and more than 100 problems and solutions. Professor Michael I. Friswell joined Aston University as a Lecturer in 1987, after five years with the Admiralty Research Establishment in Portland. He moved to Swansea in 1993 and was promoted to a personal chair in 2000. Between 2002 and 2008, he was the Sir George White Professor of Aerospace Engineering at Bristol University before returning to Swansea in 2009 as Professor of Aerospace Structures. He received an EPSRC Advanced Research Fellowship (1996–2001), a Royal Society–Wolfson Research Merit Award (2002–2007), and an EC Marie Curie Excellence Grant (2005–2008). Professor Friswell has a wide range of research interests, primarily involving rotordynamics and structural dynamics, including inverse methods, condition monitoring, damping, nonlinear dynamics, and model-reduction methods. Professor Friswell’s recent associate editorships include the Journal of Intelligent Material Systems and Structures, Structural Health Monitoring, and the Journal of Vibration and Acoustics. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications and the Institute of Physics and a Member of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Professor John E. T. Penny served an apprenticeship with the English Electric Co. and worked for that company as a development engineer for three years. He then joined the staff at Aston University, initially as a Research Fellow, then as a Lecturer and Senior Lecturer, and became Head of the Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Department. Following this, Professor Penny became Director of Research at the School of Engineering and Applied Science. He has taught bachelor- and master’s-level students in vibration and rotordynamics and related topics, such as numerical analysis and instrumentation. His research interests include topics in structural dynamics and rotordynamics. He has published in journals including the Journal of Sound and Vibration, Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, and AIAA Journal. He is now an Emeritus Professor at Aston University but is still teaching and doing research. Professor Penny is a Fellow of the Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications. Professor Seamus D. Garvey began his career with six years at GEC Large Electrical Machines Ltd., Rugby, and his first rotordynamics experience was acquired there. When he left the company in 1990, he was Principal Engineer for Mechanical Analysis and had written the computer program that has been used ever since for rotordynamics analysis. He then spent 10 years at Aston University, after which he joined Nottingham University as a Professor of Dynamics. He remains active in rotordynamics research – especially in the areas of active control and developing control forces through the airgaps of electrical machines – and serves on the organizing committees of both the IFToMM Rotordynamics conference and the IMechE Conference on Vibrations in Rotating Machines. He is currently Director of the RollsRoyce University Technology Centre in Gas Turbine Transmissions at Nottingham University. Professor Garvey is a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and a Member of the Institute of Engineering and Technology. Professor Arthur W. Lees has spent most of his career in the power-generation industry. After completing his PhD in physics, he joined the Central Electricity Generating Board, initially developing FE codes and later resolving plant problems. After a sequence of positions, he was appointed head of the Turbine Group for Nuclear Electric Plc. He moved to Swansea University in 1995, where his position was jointly funded by British Energy Plc and BNFL until August 2000. He was then appointed to a permanent chair within Swansea University. He is a regular reviewer of many technical journals and is currently on the editorial boards of the Journal of Sound and Vibration and Communications on Numerical Methods in Engineering. His research interests include structural dynamics, rotordynamics, and heat transfer. Professor Lees is a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers and a Fellow of the Institute of Physics.

Preface

This book addresses the dynamics of rotating machines, and its purpose may be considered threefold: (1) to inform readers of the various dynamic phenomena that may occur during the operation of machines; (2) to provide an intuitive understanding of these phenomena at the most basic level using the simplest possible mathematical models; and (3) to elucidate how detailed modeling may be achieved. This is an engineering textbook written for engineers and students studying engineering at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Its aim is to allow readers to learn and gain a comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of rotating machines by reading, problem solving, and experimenting with rotor models in software. The book deliberately eschews any detailed historical accounts of the development of thinking within the dynamic analysis of rotating machines, focusing exclusively on modern matrix-based methods of numerical modeling and analysis. The structure of the book (described in Chapter 1) is driven largely by the desire to introduce the subject in terms of matrix formulations, beginning with the exposition of the necessary matrix algebra. All of the authors are avid devotees of matrix-based approaches to dynamics problems and all are constantly inspired by the intricacy and detail that emerge from even relatively simple numerical models. The emergence of software packages such as MATLAB that enable what would once have been considered large matrix computations to be conducted easily on a personal computer is one of the most exciting and important innovations in dynamics in the past two decades. With such a package, sophisticated models of machines can be assembled “from scratch” using only a few prewritten functions, which are available from the Web site associated with this book. This book was written in a period of several years and, during that time, the single remark that emerged most often among the authors is this: “There is always more to discover about the dynamics of rotating machines”; this remark is usually exclaimed in wonder. It has been a pleasure to write this book and we hope that this pleasure is visible to and shared by readers. We thank our respective wives, Wendy, Wendy, Antonia, and Rita, for their patience, and the publishers for their considerable forbearance. During the preparation of the manuscript, we drew on the knowledge and insight of many other seasoned practitioners in the field – too many to thank individually – but a collective acknowledgment is entirely appropriate because it is heartfelt. xiii
