Magnetic Bearings

• Introduction into magnetic bearings and their properties
  • Overview (advantages, machine designs, principle, components, general properties)
  • Detailed properties (load capacity, basic formulas, dynamic characteristics, digital controller behaviour)
  • Controller design (objectives, difficulties, design approach, rotor assessment, controller building blocks, coupling of axes and bearings)
  • Special features (synchronous control, overload handling)
  • Back up bearings (design, behaviour in case of a drop)
  • Learning from experience
  
  
• Rotor dynamic analyses for magnetic bearing applications (with MADYN 2000)
  • Analyses for the rotor assessment
  • Modelling the bearing, practical controller design
  • Analyses of the rotor bearing system (stability, sensitivity, Campbell diagram, unbalance response)
  • Assessment of the results (robustness, load capacity)
