Abstract The unbalance present in the rotor gives rise to a synchronous unbalance force in the rotor. To minimize or eliminate the effects
caused due to this unbalance force, the rotor needs to be balanced. The unbalance of the rotor needs to be estimated and determined well before
balancing, for better results. The unbalance is assumed to be distributed over the entire span of the rotor. The unbalance eccentricity curve is
assumed to be a polynomial. The geometry of the bent rotor i.e. the eccentricity present in the rotor, determines the amount of unbalance in the
rotor. The relation between the inherent eccentricity and the unbalance force response is established and the unbalance distribution is determined
from the relation.

VIII. CONCLUSIONS
The present study focusses on the procedure of distributed
unbalance in the modal balancing to balance the rotor. With
this method the, unbalance can be estimated even when the
rotor is run at a low speed, much less when compared to
Critical speed. This method can be useful, when the number of
locations to measure, the vibration response is limited.
