Unbalance Suppression for AMB Rotor System Using APF-SRF Algorithm

Abstract EN

With the great capability in levitating rotors, active magnetic bearings (AMB) have been increasingly applied in high-speed rotating machinery applications.

Typically, for the practical application of AMB rotor systems, synchronous unbalance vibration has long been a critical issue.

Thus, exploring a facile yet effective approach to address this issue has attracted tremendous interest from both industrial and academic perspectives.

Herein, in this work, we propose a novel strategy to suppress the unbalance vibration through a compensation control algorithm method.

The compensation control algorithm which is established based on the combination of first-order all-pass filter (APF) and synchronous rotating frame (SRF) algorithm demonstrates to be efficient in greatly reducing the unbalance vibration and resulting in excellent system stability according to both simulation and experimental results.

This work not only confirms the applicability of APF-SRF algorithm for the AMB rotor systems but also opens up a new paradigm to modulate and minimize the unbalance vibration of AMB rotor systems.
