Abstract: In Part I of this work, a theoretical analysis showed that the surrounding air in the closed confinement between rotor and casing has a significant effect on the dynamic behavior of high ...

Abstract: In this study, a modeling approach has been developed to take multiphysical effects into account in the prediction of the rotordynamic behavior of high speed minirotating machinery with a ...

Abstract: Recently, there have been numerous research projects on the development of minirotating machines. These machines mostly operate at speeds above the first critical speed and have special levitation ...
