Abstract
In this paper, a novel axial dynamic model including the transient force of balance disc is proposed to predict the vibration characteristics of multistage pump rotor system. To obtain the dynamic force, the rotating effect of the rotor system is considered and the Navier–Stokes equations are further simplified on the basis of the geometric structure and inner flow characteristic of the balance disc. In addition, based on finite element method and matrix operation, a novel axial motion model of rotor system is established. The efficient Newmark method is applied to describe the dynamic response of the coupled rotor system. The pressure distribution in axial clearance and the corresponding dynamic force present obvious nonlinear reduction as the axial gap increases from 0.2 mm to 1 mm. The inner chamber pressure is more sensitive to the inlet pressure than the rotating speed, especially when the axial gap is 0.2 mm. Moreover, the axial steady amplitude of the rotor system is directly proportional to the rotating speed and initial axial gap, while it is inversely proportional to the outer radius of the balance disc. In addition, the vibration frequencies for axial vibration are multiple even when the motion of the rotor system is regularly reciprocating. The transient force of the balance disc needs to be considered in the calculation of axial rotor dynamics for the multistage pump. The calculated results can provide references for the design of the balance disc and an axial vibration model of the multistage pump rotor system.
