Abstract
An adaptive hybrid controller is proposed for reducing the unbalanced vibration response of a flexible rotor/active magnetic bearing system. It is observed that conventional adaptive feedforward controller (AFFC) normally used in the active noise control is very sensitive in performance for changes in rotor spin frequencies. Although frequency updating is a part of its architecture, a small practical variation in the rotor spin frequency can reduce its effectiveness drastically. A smart combination of adaptive notch filter and Goertzel filter is proposed for the frequency estimation. During changes of the rotor spin frequency, fundamental harmonics of the flexible rotor are excited. By using hybrid controllers that combine feedback control and AFFC, the amplitude of these fundamental harmonics is reduced significantly. By applying the multi-harmonic hybrid control, the multiple harmonics generated due to coupling misalignment are compensated efficiently. Fourier transform of the control signal is further used to detect the presence of the coupling misalignment.
