Experimental Study on Vibration Reduction Characteristics of Gear Shafts Based on ISFD Installation Position

الملخص EN

A novel type of integral squeeze film damper (ISFD) is proposed to reduce and isolate vibration excitations of the gear system through bearing to the foundation.

Four ISFD designs were tested experimentally with an open first-grade spur gear system.

Vibration reduction characteristics were experimentally studied at different speeds for cases where ISFD elastic damping supports were simultaneously installed on the driving and driven shafts, installed on the driven shaft, or only installed on the driving shaft.

Experimental results show that the ISFD elastic damping support can effectively reduce shock vibration of the gear system.

Additionally, resonant modulation in gear shafts caused by meshing impact was significantly reduced.

Different vibration amplitudes of gear shafts with ISFD installed only on driven or driving shafts were compared.

Results indicated that vibration reduction is better when ISFD is only installed on the driven shaft than on the driving shaft.
