Study on Influence of Different Forms of Damping and Operating Temperature on Whirling Speeds of Rotors
Abstract: Accurate prediction of rotor whirl speeds is fundamentally important in the design of rotating machinery. There has been an impressive progress in the study of rotor dynamics in the last decade. The use of finite elements for the simulation of rotor system makes it possible to handle complex problems. Rotating shaft tends to bow out at certain speeds and whirl in a complicated manner. This phenomenon results from various causes …

Influence of Internal and External Dampings on Shaft Whirl Speeds
Abstract: A mathematical model is developed for the estimation of rotor forward and backward whirl speeds by considering the stationary and rotational dampings. Stationary damping includes external viscous damping in the bearings and rotational damping includes internal viscous and hysteretic damping in the shaft material. The rotors in gas turbines and steam turbines commonly used in military and commercial rotating machines operate at high speeds. These rotors are provided with a …
