... a magnetic bearing is the most practical method. In stability analysis, labyrinth seals can produce significant cross coupling forces, which particularly reduce the damping ratio of the first forward mode. Therefore, forward modes should be distinguished from backward modes in the excitation test. One method...

... drawbacks. Active magnetic bearings (AMBs) are promising since they are very effective in controlling the vibration of the rotor and offering the possibility of monitoring the rotor’s behavior using their displacement sensors. However they show serious drawbacks related to their stiffness. Electromagnetic...

... speed. In this paper, a novel approach is used to control the journal bearing instability. An active magnetic bearing (AMB) is used to overcome the JB instability and to increase its range of operation. The concept is quite simple: Rather than using the AMB as a load carrying element, the AMB is used...
