Abstract

Vibration analysis of double-row cylindrical roller bearing systems is useful for controlling the vibrations of rotating transmission systems. However, most current works only formulated the rotor system with single-row cylindrical roller bearings. Moreover, the vibration characteristics of the rotor system with defective double-row cylindrical roller bearings are not clearly. To overcome this problem, a vibration model of a flexible rotor system with the defective double-row cylindrical roller bearing is proposed in this work. The effects of the speed and defect on the vibrations of flexible rotor systems are studied. The vibrations from flexible and rigid models are compared under different rotation speeds. Note that the vibration waveforms from rigid and flexible models are similar. The vibrations of different nodes are different under different speeds, which cannot be formulated by the previous rigid models. The vibration model can better represent the vibrations of rotor systems with and without the defect. Moreover, this paper can provide a comprehensive analytical method for vibrations and acoustics of flexible rotor systems with the double-row cylindrical roller bearings.
