Rotor design and balance

The centre has developed technology and software for design of high speed rotors and balancing them.

Numerical analysis of rotor deformation and vibration

Numerical analysis of rotor deformation and vibration

The above is a screen display showing the vibrations of a high speed rotor supported by air bearings. The speed was increased pass through first and second resonate frequencies, and the vibration amplitude is small
