Rotordynamics
1 2013 ANSYS, Inc. Release 14.5
Goal
Workshop 1 investigates Nelson Vaugh rotor behavior. It is meant to illustrate how to create
Campbell diagram and understand forward whirl and backward whirl.
Problem statement:
Goal is to estimate the natural frequencies and mode shapes between 0 and 100000 rpm,
create Campbell diagram, observe the gyroscopic effect seen due to separation in mode
pairs (forward whirl and backward whirl)
