About the Book

This comprehensivereference/text provides a thorough grounding in the fundamentals of rotating machinery vibration-treating computer model building, sources and types of vibration, and machine vibration signal analysis.

Illustrating turbomachinery, vibration severity levels, condition monitoring, and rotor vibration cause identification, Rotating Machinery Vibration

  • Provides a primer on vibration fundamentals
  • Highlights calculation of rotor unbalance response and rotor self-excited vibration
  • Demonstrates calculation of rotor balancing weights
  • Furnishes PC codes for lateral rotor vibration analyses
  • Treats bearing, seal, impeller, and blade effects on rotor vibration
  • Describes modes, excitation, and stability of computer models
  • Includes extensive PC data coefficient files on bearing dynamics

    Providing comprehensive descriptions of vibration symptoms for rotor unbalance, dynamic instability, rotor-stator rubs, misalignment, loose parts, cracked shafts, and rub-induced thermal bows, Rotating Machinery Vibration is an essential reference for mechanical, chemical, design, manufacturing, materials, aerospace, and reliability engineers; and specialists in vibration, rotating machinery, and turbomachinery; and an ideal text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
