Steam turbine rotors bend during operation, but the bearing and supports are designed to keep the static and dynamic forces under control. However, bending can cause impact between stationary and ...

With the vibration tests, deformations can be recorded with millimetre accuracy and material stresses analysed Five hundred sensors measure the structural dynamics directly on the rotor blade Funded ...

Solving insidious vibration problems in rotating equipment may sometimes seem like a black art that requires the right incantation. But identifying the root cause of the vibration is actually a ...

Applying vibration modelling in gas turbines to fault monitoring of the same equipment can assist maintenance planning and extend system life. Bearings are responsible for vibratory phenomena in gas ...
