  2. Dunkerley's method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunkerley's_Method

    When an element of mass is offset from the axis of rotation, centrifugal force will tend to pull the mass outward. The elastic properties of the shaft will act to restore the “straightness”. If the frequency of rotation is equal to one of the resonant frequencies of the shaft, whirling will occur. In order to save the machine from failure ...

  3. Rotordynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotordynamics

    The Jeffcott rotor (named after Henry Homan Jeffcott), also known as the de Laval rotor in Europe, is a simplified lumped parameter model used to solve these equations. A Jeffcott rotor consists of a flexible, massless, uniform shaft mounted on two flexible bearings equidistant from a massive disk rigidly attached to the shaft. The simplest ...

  4. Rotating unbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_unbalance

    A static balance (sometimes called a force balance [2] [3]) occurs when the inertial axis of a rotating mass is displaced from and parallel to the axis of rotation.Static unbalances can occur more frequently in disk-shaped rotors because the thin geometric profile of the disk allows for an uneven distribution of mass with an inertial axis that is nearly parallel to the axis of rotation.

  5. Critical speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_speed

    Stiffness of the shaft and its support; Total mass of shaft and attached parts; Unbalance of the mass with respect to the axis of rotation; The amount of damping in the system; In general, it is necessary to calculate the critical speed of a rotating shaft, such as a fan shaft, in order to avoid issues with noise and vibration.

  6. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    The torque on shaft is 0.0053 N⋅m at 2 A because of the assumed radius of the rotor (exactly 1 m). Assuming a different radius would change the linear K v {\displaystyle K_{\text{v}}} but would not change the final torque result.

  7. Second polar moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_polar_moment_of_area

    The rotor of a modern steam turbine. Calculation of the steam turbine shaft radius for a turboset: Assumptions: Power carried by the shaft is 1000 MW; this is typical for a large nuclear power plant. Yield stress of the steel used to make the shaft (τ yield) is: 250 × 10 6 N/m 2.

  8. Advance ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advance_ratio

    Low Advance Ratio (J < 1): When the advance ratio is low, the vehicle is moving forward slowly relative to the propeller speed. This usually happens at low speeds or when the propeller is turning very fast. High Advance Ratio (J > 1): When the advance ratio is high, the vehicle is moving forward quickly compared to the propeller's rotational speed.

  9. Newton–Euler equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton–Euler_equations

    Traditionally the Newton–Euler equations is the grouping together of Euler's two laws of motion for a rigid body into a single equation with 6 components, using column vectors and matrices. These laws relate the motion of the center of gravity of a rigid body with the sum of forces and torques (or synonymously moments ) acting on the rigid body.
