Nonlinear dynamic characteristics of rubbing phenomenon in rotor dynamics are investigated experimentally and numerically. Rubbing phenomenon occurs when rotor contacts with stator during whirling and causes the large amplitude of vibration, high whirl frequencies, and possibly catastrophic failure. Rubbing has various types of forward whirl, backward rolling, backward slipping, and partial rub depending on the system parameters of rotating machinery and running speed. Experiments are performed for forward whirl and backward whirl. And numerical analysis are conducted to explain the changes between backward rolling and backward slipping. Experimental and numerical results show that the types of whirling motion depends on the friction coefficient between rotor and stator and the eccentricity of rotor.

Oil whirl effects on system identification during modal testings are discussed. When the forward rotating excitations act, the oil whirl effects seriously appear. But when the backward rotating and uni-directional excitations act, and the magnitude of forward excitation is small, oil whirl effect do not appear in forced response function. The results of simulation of oil whirl effects during modal testing are well coincident with those of experiments. With the uni-directional excitation technique the linearized dynamic coefficients of fluid film bearings and seals can be estimated more accurately than with the circular rotating excitation technique. But with the circular excitation technique oil whirl effects can be well investigated.

Tiltrotor aircraft can fly about twice faster and several times further than conventional helicopters. These aircraft provide advantages preventing compressibility of advancing side and stall of retreating side of blades because they take forward flight with tilting rotor systems. However, they have limit on forward flight speed because of the aeroelastic instability known as whirl flutter. First, the parametric study on the aeroelastic stability of the isolated rotor system has been performed in this paper. And the effects of pitch-link stiffness, gimbal spring constant, and precone angle on the whirl flutter stability of Smart-UAV have been investigated through CAMRAD II analysis.

Computational studies on the hydrodynamic behavior of the forward-sweep inducers for the rocket-engine turbopump are presented in comparison with the conventional backward- sweep inducers. In the present study, two kinds of forward-sweep inducers are designed and numerically investigated. Forward-sweep inducers have bigger tip solidity compared to backward-sweep inducers even with shorter axial length due to their forward-sweep leading edge profiles. It is shown that back flows at the inlet decreases dramatically for forward- sweep inducers. And the low pressure region at the back flow are also decreased, which is assumed to promote the suction performance of the inducers. It seems that the hub located upstream of the tip at the leading edge induces pre whirl at the inlet blade tip for the backward sweep inducer. And this pre whirl leads to the big back flow.

Hidden Markov Model(HMM) has been widely used in speech recognition, however, its use in machine condition monitoring has been very limited despite its good potential. In this paper, HMM is used to recognize rotor fault pattern. First, we set up rotor kit under unbalance and oil whirl conditions. Time signals of two failure conditions were sampled and translated to auto power spectrums. Using filter bank, feature vectors were calculated from these auto power spectrums. Next, continuous HMM and discrete HMM were trained with scaled forward/backward variables and diagonal covariance matrix. Finally, each HMM was applied to all sampled data to prove fault recognition ability. It was found that HMM has good recognition ability despite of small number of training data set in rotor fault pattern recognition.

The motions of a spinning rotor and a fluid enclosed in its cavity are known to have mutual interactions, which change the frequencies of forced vibrations and cause instabilities. These phenomena are of technical importance for fluid-cooled turbines as well as spin-stabilized satellites or rockets containing liquid fuels. In this paper the characteristics of unstable whirling of a rotor containing a partitioned cavity filled with two kinds of liquids are investigated experimentally. It studies the influence of rotational speed and filling ratio of two kinds of liquids on unstable whiring. As a result, it is found that the whirl velocity is approximately equal to, or slightly lower for large masses of trapped fluid than rotor critical speed. In case of a spinning rotor partially filled with two kinds of liquids the boundary surface plays a similar role to the free surface, and cases unstable forward whirl.

원심분리기는 용액 속에 있는 물질을 크기와 밀도 및 모양의 다름을 이용하여 용액으로부터 분리, 정제 및 순화하는 과학기계이며 처리량의 규모에 따라 공업용과 실험실용으로 분류된다. 공업용은 처리량이 많은 반면 실험실용은 처리량이 적으나 분리효과가 좋은 특징을 갖으며 회전속도에 의해 저속, 고속 및 초고속의 원심분리기로 나뉘어진다. 초고속 원심분리기는 최초(30년대)에 침전계수의 측정을 목적으로 연구개발을 시작하였다. 이의 용도에서 사용되는 초고속원심기를 분석용 초고속원심기라 부르나 이는 50년대 이후에 점차적으로 기술적 발전을 가져와 미소물질 분리를 위한 분리용 초고속원심기로 변천이 되어 생물학분야 이외에 항공기,선박,고속철도,석유탐지,원자력,섬유공업과 반도체등 여러 분야에 이용이 되고 있다.

Modem reciprocating air compressors have tendency to a multi-stage W-type or V-type cylinder arrangement for the purpose of high outlet pressure, compactness and low vibration and noise. A valid counter weight calculation method using the complex expression is proposed for reducing the inertia forces of the compressor. Counter weight removes only 1st forward whirl component. Counter weight formulations are applied to the six various compressor structures which are (a) 1 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, (b) 2 cylinder single-throw crank shaft (c) 2 cylinder double-throw clank shaft, (d) 3 cylinder single-throw crank shaft, (e) 4 cylinder single-throw crank shaft and (f) 4 cylinder double-throw crank shaft. The improvement of performance is verified through available vibration test.

A rotordynamic analysis was performed with a dry vacuum pump, which is a major equipment in modern semiconductor and LCD manufacturing processes. The system is composed of screw rotors, lobes picking air, helical gears, driving motor, and support rolling element hearings of rotors and motor. The driving motor-screw rotor system has a rated speed of 6,300rpm, and was modeled utilizing a rotordynamic FE method for analysis, which was verified through the results of its 3-D finite element model. As loadings on the bearings due to the gear action were significant in the system considered, each resultant bearing load was calculated determinately and indeterminately by considering the generalized forces of the gear action as veil as the rotor itself. Each resultant hearing loading was used in calculating each stiffness of rolling element bearings. Design goals are to achieve wide separation margins of critical speeds and favorable unbalance responses of the rotor in the operating range. Then, a complex rotordynamic analysis of the system was carried out to evaluate its forward synchronous critical speeds, whirl natural frequencies and mode shapes, and unbalance responses under various unbalance locations. Results show that the entire system is well designed in the operating range. In addition, the procedure of rotordynamic analysis for dry vacuum pump rotor-bearing system was proposed and established.
