Multi-plane Balancing of Flexible Rotor Consisting of Two Disks

Abstract

In this paper, we deal with a new balancing method in which both the amplitudes of vibrations of two disks and the unbalance forces acting on bearings become approximately zero at any speeds of rotation. Furthermore, in general, it is made clear that the balancing of a flexible rotor consisting of n disks can be achieved by selecting n+2 correction planes arbitrarily.
