Analysis of the lateral vibrations of an unbalanced Jeffcott rotor
This paper examines experimentally and analytically the lateral vibrations of a Jeffcott rotor running at various unbalance states.Using a Bently Nevada RK-4 rotor kit, three states of eccentric mass unbalance were assumed in this study: 0.4g, 0.8g and 1.2g.Measurements of the startup data and the steady state data at rigid and flexible rotor condi
