Electric-Hydraulic Actuator Design for a Hybrid Squeeze-Film Damper-Mounted Rigid Rotor System With Active Control

摘要

When a squeeze-film damper-mounted rigid rotor system is operated eccentrically, the nonlinear forces are no longer radially symmetric and a disordered dynamical behavior (i.e., quasi-periodic and chaotic vibration) will occur. To suppress the undesired vibration characteristics, the hybrid squeeze-film damper bearing consisting of hydrostatic chambers and hydrodynamic ranges is proposed. In order to change the pressure in hydrostatic chambers, two pairs of electric-hydraulic orifices are used in this paper. The dynamic model of the system is established with the consideration of the electric-hydraulic actuator. The complex nonsynchronous vibration of squeeze-film dampers rotor-bearing system is demonstrated to be stabilized by such electric-hydraulic orifices actuators with proportional-plus-derivative (PD) controllers. Numerical results show that the nonchaotic operation range of the system will be increased by tuning the control loop gain.
