Post-resonance backward whirl analysis in cracked overhung rotors.

ABSTRACT: Overhung rotors usually exhibit recurrent transitions through critical whirl rotational speeds during startup and coast down operations, which significantly differ from their steady-state whirl responses. The presence of angular acceleration results in a linear-time-varying (LTV) system, which, although technically linear, still presents complexities often evinced by a nonlinear system. In general, backward whirl zones can either precede the critical forward whirl speed (termed as pre-resonance backward whirl, Pr-BW), or immediately follow the critical forward whirl speed (termed as post-resonance backward whirl, Po-BW). The Po-BW in the whirl response of a cracked overhung rotor with a breathing crack is studied here as distinct from that of geometrically symmetric configurations of other
