In the preceding Part I study, for improving the unbalance response vibration of a large PRT motor-generator rotor fundamentally by design, a series of design analyses were carried out for bearing improvement by retrofitting from original plain partial journal bearings, applied for operation at a rated speed of 1,800 rpm, to final tilting pad journal bearings. To satisfy evenly key basic lubrication performances such as the minimum lift-off speed and maximum oil-film temperature, a design solution of 5-pad tilting pad journal bearings and maximizing the direct stiffness by about two times has been achieved. In this Part II study, a detailed rotordynamic analysis of the large PRT motor-generator rotor-bearing system will be performed, applying both the original plain partial journal bearings and the retrofitted tilting pad journal bearings, to confirm the effect of rotordynamic vibration improvement after retrofitting. The results show that the rotor unbalance response vibrations with the tilting pad journal bearings are greatly reduced by as much as about one ninth of those with the plain partial journal bearings. In addition, for the tilting pad journal bearings there exist no critical speed up to the rated speed and just one instance of a concerned critical speed around the rated speed, whereas for the plain partial journal bearings there exist one instance of a critical speed up to the rated speed and two instances of concerned critical speeds around the rated speed.

본 논문은 풍력발전기용 요 감속기를 경량화하여 유한요소해석과 위험속도해석을 통해 안정성검증을 하였다. 제품의 경량화는 엔진의 효율을 높일 수 있으며, 부품의 소재를 절약하여 경제적 이득을 취할 수 있다. IEC 61400-1에서 제시한 풍력발전기 부품의 안전율 1.3이상을 목표로 풍력발전기용 요 감속기를 경량화하였다. 위상 최적화를 수행한 캐리어를 유한요소해석을 수행하여 안전율을 나타냈고, 하우징과 최적화한 캐리어를 MASTA11을 활용하여 작성한 풍력발전용 요 감속기 기어트레인 모델과 부분구조합성법으로 연결하여 고유 모드와 고유진 동수를 파악하여 질량불평형과 치통과 주파수에 대하여 위험속도해석을 수행하였고, 캠벨 선도(Campbell Diagram)를 작성하여 안정성 검증을 하였다.
