The computer model consists of ANSYS Rev 5.2 SOLID45 & BEAM4 & PIPE16 elements as shown. The BEAMG elements are used for modeling the compressor & motor axis with bull-gear, motor rotor, and for making a rigid connection to the concrete structure. The coupling is hollow and is therefore modeled with the PIPE16 element. Unbalance forces are applied at joint 3207 (bull-gear), joint 3211 (motor), joint 3225 (Ist/2nd stage rotor) & joint 3223 (3rd/4th stage rotor) & joint 3231 (Sth/6th stage rotor). For computation of these forces see sheet-5. For additional comments see computer input file in this package (sheet-7).

The picture to the left is a simplified representation of the shaft of any of the rotating components of the compressor (including motor) for which unbalance forces need to be considered (65-steps/cycle). The main shaft with bull-gear and motor rotor turn at an operating speed of 1792 rpm which is the same as 29.866 cps. One could also say that the time it takes for the shaft to make a full 360 deg. turn or one revolution is 0.03348 seconds, For the concrete frames supporting compressor and motor to experience the unbalance forces computed on sheet-5 the following needs to be considered for the mathematical model: The computed unbalance force must be applied at the center of gravity of the rotating component under consideration. These unbalance forces must also be applied so as to be acting in a plane perpendicular to the rotating axis of the shaft. ésurt Forces must point into the direction which is consistent with the time-step sequence. Each time- step is measured in degrees and fractions of a second (time). The time-steps chosen for this installation correspond to an angle of 5.53846 deg and have a duration of (5.5385/360)*0.03348 = 0,00051511 seconds. For each time-step the applied force generates a response (or reaction) of the structure the character of which depends on the magnitude and direction of the applied force and the stiffness & inertia of the structure along with the effect of damping. A sufficient number of time-step responses must be computed so that after several revolutions the displacement amplitudes remain more or less constant cycle after cycle. In order to implement all of this a time-history dynamic analysis needs to be performed. The radial unbalance forces need to be resolved into vertical & horizontal components and then assigned to the relevant time interval. Instead of computing these components one could also specify the phase angle - either way - the input of these forces becomes very tedious when dealin; with 100 (or more) time-steps, so that it will be expedient to take advantage of the ANSY: parametric design language which is similar to FORTRAN. Please note that the 1s/2nd & 3rd/4th & Sth/6th stage rotor operating speeds are not the same as the operating speed of bull-gear & motor. The corresponding time-step (alpha)-angles are assigned to the parameters ARG6, ARG8, AR10 & ARI2 - see statements near the end of the input file (sheet-13). Range of natural frequencies (eigenvalues) chosen so that the frequency band is widened by 10 eyc/sec beyond the upper & lower operating speeds of the rotating machinery parts. The required minimum rang would be from 30 -10 = 20 cyc/sec based on the 30 cyc/see operating speed of bull-gear and motor rotor (the lowest natural frequency for the foundation arrangement is 27.089 cyc/see according to the modal analysis ) and up to 486 +10 = 496 eye/see for the Ist/2nd stage rotor. This would take care of the interfering frequencies as stated on the DEMAG foundation loading diagram sheets. ‘The actual frequency range chosen goes from 27.089 (1625.rpm) to 638 eye/sec (38280.rpm) as can be seen from the computer generated values {modes 1-99).
