Abstract

Mechanisms simulating rotor joint restoring moments different from the common axisymmetric elastic hinge are derived and their effects on the dynamics of a complete turbomachine are calculated by impressing equivalent perturbing moments. A mechanism for locking subsynchronous whirl to a fractional frequency is described and supporting experimental observations are discussed. Sample analysis shows the possibility of self-sustained synchronous whirl due to preload asymmetry.
