Journal of Sound and Vibration (1993) 160(2), 313-332 A SURVEY OF THE DYNAMIC BEHAVIOUR OF A SIMPLE ROTATING SHAFT WITH A TRANSVERSE CRACK R. Gascu Technical University Berlin, Sekr. F5, Marchstrasse 12, D-1000 Berlin 10, Germany ‘(Received 2 January 1991, and in final form 29 August 1991) A simple but comprehensive survey is provided of the stability behaviour of a rotating shaft with a crack, and of the forced vibrations due to imbalance and to the crack. The analysis is restricted to that of the Laval rotor (one disk on an elastic shaft). Some possibili- ties for early crack detection are established. 1, INTRODUCTION The aim of this paper is to provide a simple, but comprehensive, survey of the stability behaviour of a rotating shaft with a crack, and of the force vibrations due to imbalance and to the crack, This is possible if vibrations remain small in comparison to the sag of the rotor under its own weight, Since the static sag of rotors threatening to crack is usually quite large, e.g., in turbo-generators often more than 1 mm, this approach is valid even when rotational speeds reach unstable ranges and the vibrations begin to grow. As long as the vibrations remain small in this sense, the non-linear equations of motion can be transformed to linear, periodically time-variant equations. ‘However, even given weight dominance in the displacement, a generally valid description in the sense of similarity theory is only possible in a few diagrams if the crack model is restricted to “strong” parameters. Only then are the results independent of the specific geometrical dimensions of the shaft. This is not the case in the analyses presented in references [1, 2]. The comparison of three different models of a cracked hollow shaft in reference [2] shows that, provided that the crack depth is not more than 50% of the shaft radius, the simple hinge model is very good for representation of the cyclic stiffness variables and for the stability limits. The same is true for a solid shaft. We therefore use a hinge model here, which only introduces one additional parameter, the additional (negative crack stiffness component ASzmax, which describes the main flex- ibility of the shaft when the crack is fully open. The cross-flexibility A5_,n0, Which becomes relevant only for very deep cracks, is a weak parameter and is omitted here (see Figure 3 of section 3). This paper is restricted to the analysis of the dynamics of the Laval rotor (one disk on an elastic shaft) with most simple crack model. A detailed discussion of nearly all crack models in use can be found in reference [3]. A brief general survey of the literature on cracked rotors was presented by Wauer in 1990 [4]. 313 (0022-460X /93/020313 +20 $08.00/0 © 1993 Academic Press Limited314 R. GASCH 2. THE EQUATIONS OF MOTION IN AN INERTIAL FRAME AND THEIR LINEARIZATION TO PERIODICAL TIME-VARIANT CO-ORDINATES The equations of motion for a simple rotor with a cracked shaft have the following form in an internal frame [4-8]: m w\ [da fi) fon se (*:)-("") (or +20) [alll Mee IG) me cccan) © M #+ D &@+S@) u=p + BR Here w, and », are the displacements at the middle of the shaft in the plane of the disk of mass m (weight mg). Damping is d, and the eccentricity between the centre of gravity and the shaft centre is ¢; fis the angle between ¢ and the centre of the crack (see Figure 1). —e Figure 1.

Degrees of freedom wet, The stiffness matrix, which in the general case is non-linear and time-variant, can be split, S(u, )=S)+ AS(u, 1) Q) where Sp is the diagonal stiffness matrix of the uncracked shaft. AS is the additive (nega- tive) crack stiffness matrix, which is dependent both on the displacements u(¢) and on the rotation angle of the rotor y=.2t. However, a crack in a rotor usually causes a small change in its stiffness (i¢., AS is small compared to Sq). The vibrational response of the rotor can also be split, u(t) =u + Ants), @) where up, the static deflection of the uncracked shaft, is open ty) ‘ and Au(*) is the vector describing the vibrational behaviour.‘CRACKED ROTATING SHAFT: A SURVEY 315 If weight dominance is assumed for the elastic deflection (Au(1)> Au(?), the weight deflection determines the opening and closing of the crack, and not the small vibrational movement Au(:): AS(u, 1) + AS(1). The crack stiffness AS(#), which is periodically variant because of y= :2t, governs the stability behaviour on the left side of equation (5) (homogeneous system). On the right side it governs the forced vibrations due to the crack through the expression —AS(1)0p. The stability of this system can be analyzed by using Floquet’s theory (see section 5), If stability is guaranteed, the forced vibrations can be determined from a time-invariant system MAu+ DAu+ SoAu=—AS(t)uy+p,. (6) because the term AS(z) Au is second order smallness. This is considered in section 6. Itis still assumed that weight effects dominate: i.e., that vibrational amplitudes are small ‘compared with the static weight deflection. This can easily be checked for a simple rotor. The weight deflection is Wesnas = M/Sos (7) where 59 is the stiffness of the uncracked shaft. However, for the eigenfrequency of the rotor, @3=59/m, so that one can write Westar = 8/0. (8) If the eigenfrequency of the uncracked rotor is known, one therefore knows the vibrational amplitudes for which the linearized theory is applicable (see Figure 2).

THE OPEN CRACK If a crack lies in the pressure zone of a shaft under load then it closes and the shaft has full flexural stiffness. However, if it lies in the zone subject to tensile forces the crack opens. The flexural stiffness of the shaft becomes less, as a result of the additional (local) flexibility (see Figure 3).

STABILITY ANALYSIS 5.1, FLOQUET’S METHOD The homogeneous, periodically time-variant system of equations of motion from equa- tion (5) with the matrices M and D as in equation (1) and the stiffness matrices as in equation (20) displays its stability properties during one period T:: that is, here, within one rotation of the rotor. For the stability investigation after Floquet we first have to calculate the transition matrix of the system (7), which tells us what happens to the initial condition x(¢=' Xp after one period: ‘Aw. ‘Aw,\ Av, dy, aif “POV ay en Aby, wT Ady, 10 x, =(T) %& This transition matrix can be obtained by first transforming the equations of motion to the state form and then integrating numerically over a period T. ‘When the transition matrix ®(7) has been obtained then after Floquet the proportional- ity between the variables of state initially (xo) and after the period 7(xr) is examined. Xr=UXo, (22) Substituting equation (22) in equation (21) then gives the Floquet eigenvalue problem which allows us to answer this question: [0(7)—p1}xo=0. (23) The vibrations die down when all the eigenvalues are less than 1; lel < 1. There is stability. If one or more eigenvalue is greater than | the system is unstable; |y_|> 1. The limiting stable case is then [yel= 1.322 R. GASCH The factor |’ is easily interpreted: it shows the factor by which a given initial amplitude increases or decreases in the course of one revolution of the rotor. 5.2. RESULTS OF THE STABILITY ANALYSIS In Figure 10 is shown an overview of the stability behaviour of a cracked simple rotor obtained by using the hinge model, with no damping, D=0). The unstable ridges, |y1|>1 are clearly visible, beginning at the rotational speeds 2/o=2/l, 2/2, 2/3, 2/4,... Further narrow ridges at 2/5, etc., are suppressed by the graphics program. e Rotational speed, Q/y i ‘Figure 10. Stability of the cracked shaft against the “‘crack depth” and the dimensionless rotational speed, Damping D=0. Unstable zones |y1> 1. There is a broad unstable zone spreading out from 2/m)=2. The zone at 2/@o=1 corresponds to the one also known from the shaft with unequal moments of inertia (slots). A very unstable, but very narrow zone is clear at Q/w»=2/3, and an even narrower one at O/@=2/4. ‘The parameter used for the crack depth is the eigenfrequency a, of the “weakened” shaft over wo for the uncracked shaft (cf., equation (16). It should not be overlooked that the movements of the shaft in the unstable zone can increase extremely suddenly. As mentioned above, || is the factor by which the amplitudes increase during a single revolution of the shaft, Thus |4/=2 means that the amplitudes increase by a factor of 1024 in the course of 10 revolutions! It would also be an illusion to think that the lower values for || in the unstable zone at 2/e=2 are less threatening; this may be true for the period T (one revolution), but the shaft is turning twice as fast as at 2/@o=1, so that over time the increase is just as rapid. The stability limits for D= 1% and 5% were illustrated in Figure 8. Some damping eases the situation appreciably for shallow cracks, 6. FORCED VIBRATIONS If the stability of the system is ensured then instead of using equation (5) a good approximation of the forced vibrations can be achieved by using the time-invariant system {in equation (6). The expression AS(1) Au in equation (5) is then small and of the secondCRACKED ROTATING SHAFT: A SURVEY 323 order.

The resonance peak here lies at 2/a@o=1/3. These three circular or elliptical orbits are shown against the dimensionless rotational speed with damping, D=0-0S, in Figure 14. When these orbits are superimposed, taking into account the single, double or triple rotational frequency, the actual orbit is obtained. At the same time, however, the clarity of the situation is lost. This is demonstrated in Figure 15 at various rotational speeds 2/9. The point on the curve shows the sum of phases. In the experimental identification of cracks the Fourier spectrum will be recorded against the rotational speed. The spatial diagram obtained for the vertical amplitude of the rotating shaft is shown in Figure 16. In Figure 17 the (dimensionless) orbital radii are shown against the rotational speed (r.- to rs3). In particular, the magnification function for the backward whirl r, can provide important hints to the existence of a crack, as we shall see in the next section, 6,3, FORCED VIBRATIONS DUE TO THE CRACK AND THE IMBALANCE The overall response due to both excitations can be derived by combining the solutions from equations (34) and (28): Ar ()= Ar, + AteneeCRACKED ROTATING SHAFT: A SURVEY 327 Figure 14, Circular and elliptical orbits of single, double and triple rotational frequencies os. rotational speed.

We have already discussed the model developed by Mayes and Davies, on the basis of their experimental investigation of rotors with deep cracks. It includes the local cross- flexibility of the crack, which is not significant for 1/R<0-5 (see Table 1), and a modified steering function f(é) to reflect the fact that with deep cracks there is a smooth transition from opening and closing. This was already apparent for the theoretical analysis of the hollow shaft shown in Figure 4 for t/R=1 (a)=90°). For deep cracks the function (b) shown in Figure 7 is used: Alt)=(1 +008 20/2. (44) If this steering function is now used in equations (14) and (44) and also the additional cross-flexibility 4s,, then the coefficients b, of the forced vibration due to the crack are found in the form shown in Table 3. All higher terms not included in the table are zero. x is the cross-flexibility parameter (=As,/As-) which varies appreciably from zero only for the deeper cracks. Taste 3 Coefficients by of the forced vibraton due to a deep crack (t/ If the values of b, from Tables 2 and 3 are compared for x=0 then it is noticeable that the differences are very small except for the term 5,, with 0-318 against 0-25. It is also clearly shown in Table 3 that due to the influence of x as the crack depth increases the +2 and +3 terms become less significant. In general, the independence of the crack excitation term by from the crack depth, which exists for 1/R<0°5, is lost for deep cracks. 8, SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS The single parameter “hinge” crack model provides an overview of the dynamic behav- iour of a simple rotor with transverse crack in the range which is important for early detection, 1/R<0-5.CRACKED ROTATING SHAFT: A SURVEY 331 ‘An overview of the stabitity behaviour has been given in Figures 8 and 10. The orbits of forced vibrations due to the crack, the sizes of which are proportional to the static displacement of the rotor and the change in stiffness As; are quite complicated (see Figure 15). However, if these are split into components at single, double and triple rotational frequency, things become much clearer (see Figures 14, 16 and 17). Important indications of the existence of a crack can be obtained at rest from the measurement of the horizontal and vertical deflection of the rotor as a function of the angular position (see Figure 6). ‘When running the rotor up or down additional resonances at = 1/3 and 1/2 as well as an increase or decrease of the imbalance resonance at =I are signs of a crack, as are the marked phase migration which occur at these rotational speeds (cf., Figures 14 and 15). These have already been pointed out by Schmied [1]. It is most difficult to recognize while the rotor is rotating at constant speed. Here long- term observation of the mean static additional deflection can be useful. For rotors which are operated near the unstable zone at =2 a criterion has been developed in reference [12] of “increasing nervosity with increasing crack depth”. The recognition of cracks at rotational speeds above the critical range speed is so difficult because the significant double and triple frequency vibrations are then only very slightly involved in the crack response (cf., Figures 14-17). The +10 vibrations due to crack (41.9) and imbalance (+12) dominate. Here spectral analysis over long periods (trend analysis) can be helpful. If the crack grows (represented by As, in equation (34)) then all the 1.2, 2@ and 3@ amplitudes due to the crack grow to the same extent! If the imbalance remain virtually constant over this period then “today's spectrum minus yesterday's” can offer a clear indication of a crack— especially when taken together with the fact that (for isotropic bearings) the crack, in contrast to the imbalance, will excite a strong backward whirl component (—1{2 vibration) which cannot be balanced out. In addition to the references already cited, useful relevant material may also be found in references [13-15]. REFERENCES 1, J, Scuten 1986 VDI-Verlag, Reihe 11, Nr. 7, Diisseldorf.
