Abstract
The principle and structure of the 75kW oil-free turbo blower is briefly introduced and the performance of gas foil bearings (GFBs) is tested. According to the test results, the lift-off speed of the gas foil journal bearings (GFJBs) using in 75kW oil-free turbo blower is about 4000rpm, and the gas foil thrust bearings (GFTBs) can provide at least 140N and 200N load capacity at 7200rpm and 9000rpm, respectively. The rotordynamics behavior of oil-free turbo blower is studied. Two proximity probes and speed sensor are installed to monitor the horizontal vibration displacement, vertical vibration displacement and shaft speed, respectively. And the vibration spectrum and the rotor axis orbit are analyzed. It was found that the maximum vibration amplitude of the rotor with dynamic balancing precision of G-1 was only 3.5 μm, and no other low frequency other than low frequency caused by signal interference. The fundamental frequency vibration amplitude of the rotor with dynamic balancing precision of G-2.5 is larger when running stably, but there is no low frequency and high frequency vibration with higher amplitude. Shaft couldn’t lift-off with dynamic balancing precision of G-6.3 In general, oil-free turbo blower with two kinds of dynamic balancing precision rotors can operate well.
