Abstract

A system for automatic model-based monitoring of multiple coexistent errors is being developed. Within this publication, the unsteady bow curve of a test rig rotor is examined. For simulating this rotor, the bow model of the Jeffcott rotor is expanded to a MDOF rotor. The application of the Ritz approach enriched with problem-specific shape functions leads to an accurate simulation with low numerical effort. The bow model and the monitoring scheme are successfully tested. Bow, unbalance and roundness error can be identified separately during normal operation of the rotor.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Figure 3 shows only translational DOF. Rotational DOF can be included similarly.

  2. 2.

    This greatly decreases the effort for taking the measurement without altering the monitoring too much. The presented procedure can be directly applied to measurements at further z positions for an identification of the full bow curve. Section 4.4 shows such an identification, yet without an automatic monitoring system.

  3. 3.

    Consider that for a real signal, the coefficient \(\underline{c}_{k}\) is the conjugate complex of \(\underline{c}_{ - k}\).
