CHAPTER 10
EXPERIMENTAL ESTIMATION OF DYNAMIC PARAMETERS OF
BEARINGS
One of the important factors governing the vibration characteristics of rotating machinery is the
effective dynamic stiffness of the supports as seen by the rotor as shown in Figure 10.1. The dynamic
stiffness of the support is determined by the combined effects of flexibility of the bearing, the bearing
pedestal assembly (bearing housing) and the foundations on which the pedestal is mounted. For the
case of turbo generator rotors mounted on oil-film bearings might be three times more flexible as
compared to pedestals and foundations.

foundation system
(b) Single-rotor-degree of
freedom idealisation
In the case of aeroengine compressor shafts are mounted on rolling element bearings, the foundation
of bearing is far more flexible. The theoretical models available for predicting the rotor support
stiffness are insufficiently accurate. It is for this reason that designers of high-speed rotating must rely
on empirically derived values (i.e. experimental) for support stiffness and damping in their design
calculations. Following methods are available which is classified in terms of type of forcing applied

o Forces inherent in the system (residual imbalance and random)
10.1 Static force method
It is possible to determine all four stiffness coefficients (i.e. xyyyxx KKK ,, and yxK ) of the bearing
oil film by application of static loads only. Unfortunately this method of loading does not enable the
oil-film damping coefficient to be determined.
The exact operating position of the shaft center on a particular bearing depends upon the Sommerfeld
number. Because the bearing oil-film coefficient are specific to a particular location of shaft center on
the static locus as shown in Figure 10.2. A static load must first be applied in order to establish
operation at the required point on the locus. The next step is to apply incremental loads in both the
horizontal and vertical directions, which will cause changes in the journal horizontal and vertical
displacement relative to the bearing bush (or more precisely with respect to its static equilibrium
position). By relating the measured changes in displacements to the changes in the static load it is
possible to determine four-stiffness coefficients on the bearing oil film. We have, increments in forces
as

where xand yare the journal displacement in xandydirections, respectively (with respect to static
equilibrium position). If the displacement in theydirection is made to zero by application of suitable
loads x and yf then
/xx xk f x= ; /yx yk f x= (10.2)
Similarly if the displacement in thex-direction is made zero then
/xy x
k f y= ; /yy y
k f y= (10.3)
Determination of the oil-film coefficient in this way necessitates a test rig, which is capable of
applying loads to the journal in both the horizontal and vertical directions. The method is somewhat
tedious in the experimental stage since evaluation of the required loads to ensure zero change in
displacement in one or other direction is dependent on the application of trial loads.
Alternative method (i) Instead of applying loads in both x and y directions, to ensue zero
displacements in one of these directions, it is easier to simply apply a load in one direction only and
measure resulting displacements in both directions. Equations (10.1) can be written as

bothxandydirections (specially in the horizontal direction,x).
Alternative method(ii): If there is no facility on the test rig for applying loads transverse to the normal
steady-state load direction of the bearing, it is still possible to obtain approximate value of the
stiffness coefficients.

Example 10.1: Under particular operating conditions, the theoretical values of the stiffness
coefficients for a hydrodynamic bearing are found to be;Kxx=30 MN/m,Kxy=26.7 MN/m,Kyx=-0.926
MN/m, Kyy=11.7 MN/m. A testing is being designed so that these values can be confirmed
experimentally. What increment in horizontal (Fx) and vertical (Fy) loads must the rig is capable of
providing in order to provide (a) a displacement increment of 12 m in the horizontal direction whilst
that in the vertical direction is maintained zero and (b) a displacement increment of 12 m in the
vertical direction whilst that in horizontal direction is maintained zero.
Solution: From equation (10.1) static forces required in thexandydirections to a given displacement
can be obtained. For case (a) following forces are required

replaced by a vertical load of 320 N. The horizontal load produces displacement of 10.3 m and 3.3

Exercise 10.1For the estimation of bearing stiffness coefficients by the static load method, the static
load of 400 N is applied in the vertical and horizontal directions, one at a time. When the load is
applied in the horizontal direction, it produces displacements of 22 m and 20 m in the vertical and
horizontal directions respectively, whilst the vertical load produces respective displacements of 4 mand 12 m. Obtained bearing stiffness coefficients from the above measurements.
Answer: The stiffness coefficients are kxx=-4.651 MN/m, kxy=13.953 MN/m, kyx=25.581 MN/m and
kyy=23.256 MN/m.
Exercise 10.2 A test rig is used to measure the hydrodynamic bearing stiffness coefficients by
applying first of all a horizontal load of 400 N. It produces displacements of 10 m and 4 m in the
horizontal and vertical directions, respectively. Then in second case only a vertical load of 300 N is
applied. It produces displacements of -20 m and 20 m in the horizontal and vertical directions,
respectively. Calculate the value of the stiffness coefficients based on these measurements.
10.2 Use of Electromagnetic Vibrator
In order to fully analyse the behavior of a bearing under dynamic loading it is necessary to cause the
journal to vibrate within the bearing bush under the action of a known exciting force as shown in
Figure 10.4(a). Alternatively, the bearing bush can be allowed to float freely on the journal as shown
in Figure 10.4(b), which is mounted on a slave bearings and the forcing is applied to the bush. By
measuring the resulting system vibrations and relating these to the force, it is possible to determine the
effective oil-film stiffness and damping coefficient. By varying the amplitude, frequency and shape of
the electrical signal input to the vibratior it is possible to exercise full control over the forcing applied
to the system.

The method involves applying a sinusoidally varying force to the journal in the horizontal direction,
whilst the forcing in the vertical direction is zero, and measuring the resulting displacement
amplitudes in the horizontal and vertical directions together with their respective phase relative to the
exciting force. It is then necessary to repeat the procedure with the forcing applied only in the vertical

On inverting [ ]R elements of [ ]Z can be obtained. The elements of [ ]Z contain all eight bearing
stiffness and damping coefficients as defined in equation (10.14) i.e. Z k j c= + where is the
frequency of forcing function. The problems related to this method can be easily solved in the
MATLAB and is illustrated in the following example.
Example 10.3 A bearing is forced in the horizontal direction by a force Fx = 150 sin 200tN. The
resulting vibrations are x = 2010-6 sin(200t-0.2) m in the horizontal direction and y = 2010-6
sin(200t-0.32) m in the vertical direction. When the same forcing is applied in the vertical direction
the horizontal and vertical displacements take the respective formsx = 810-6
sin(200t+ 0.15) m and
y = 2610-6sin(200t-0.3) m. Determine dynamic coefficients of the bearing.

Exercise 10.4. For the bearing dynamic parameter estimation, how many minimum numbers of
independent sets of force-response measurements are required? Justify your answer. (Assume there is
no residual imbalance in rotor.)
10.2.2 Direct Complex Impedance Derivation
It is possible to determine the complex stiffness coefficients ZZxx , etc. in equation (10.14) directly
without resorting to the use of receptances. This may be done provided that forcing in both the
horizontal and vertical directions be able provide simultaneously, and with independent control over
each input with respect to its amplitude and relative phase. The system force-displacement
relationship is given by equation (10.14). In the present approach it is to ensure that one of the
resulting system displacement vectors, say Y, is zero. This can be made to be the case by correctly
adjusting the amplitude of the force in they-direction and its phase relative to that in thex-direction.
Suitable values for these quantities can be found relatively easily by trial and error. The first line of
equation (10.14) thus gives
x
fZ xxx= (10.18)
which will allow the value ofxx
Z to be determined directly provided that the amplitude and phase of
the horizontal displacement relative to the horizontal force had been measured. If the amplitude and
phase of the force in they-direction were also noted then the value of yxZ could also be determined as
x
fZ
y
yx= (10.19)
In the above case, it is the phase of thex-direction displacement amplitude relative to the force in the
y-direction that is significant. Similarly by adjusting forcing amplitudes and relative phases so as to
ensure a zero horizontal displacement,x, then the values of xyZ and yyZ could also be determined.
This method requires more complicated experimental procedure. It may be more costly in terms of
equipment, since two vibrators and additional control units are required.
Some experimental measurement considerations are discussed now. Choice of forcing frequency (or
forcing frequency range) is an important parameter to choose. It depends upon the system resonance.

If the system is excited close to its resonant frequency then a response of suitable magnitude may be
obtained for a lower force amplitude input. (since the bearing impedance changes with journal
vibration non-linearity effect will play a major roll). The advantage of exciting the system at a
frequency in the region of its resonant frequency, that is that phase lag will be generally greater than
zero. (between response and force). With this for small inaccuracies in their (phase) measurement are
less likely to substantially alter the magnitude of coefficients, which are derived. This is not the case
hen the lag angle is very small or when it is close to090 . In these cases (i.e. close to 00 and 090 ) ill
conditioning of the equation of motion results in significant changes in the magnitude of the derived
coefficient for even a change of only 3-4 degrees of phase (which may be about the accuracy to which
phase is measured). This coefficient derived using data generated well away from the critical speed
may well be considerably in accurate (of the order of 100% in some cases). Also since at critical
speeds it is observed that the orbit of the shaft center is elliptical in nature and that leads to well
conditioning of regression matrix.
10.2.3 Multi Frequency Testing
It has advantage that the certainty of exciting all system modes within the prescribe frequency range,
and inherent high noise rejection. The method involves forcing the system in bothxandydirections,
at all frequencies within the range of interest, simultaneously. The aim is to arrive at more accurate
values of the coefficients, which are assumed to be independent of frequency, by means of some
averaging procedure. When all (several) frequencies are excited simultaneously, the knowledge of
bearing behavior at many different frequencies should enable more accurate results to be obtained.
Also it saves the laboratory time. Fourier analysis can be used to convert measured input and output
signals from the time domain to the frequency domain. Recent advances in laboratory
instrumentation, for example, the emergence of spectrum analysers (FFT analysis) capable of carrying
out the Fourier transform, have helped the technique to evolve. In theory, any shape of input signal
with multi-frequency content can be used to force the system. For example an impulse signal (Figure
10.7) is actually composed of signals at all frequencies in coexistence. Because of the likely
concentration of the signal at the low-frequency end of the spectrum however, a impulse in practice
provides useful signals over only a relatively small frequency range. For higher frequency the signal/
noise ratio becomes too low. An alternative is a white noise signal, which contains all frequencies
within its spectrum Band-limited white noise, sometimes referred to as coloured noise, contains all
frequencies within a prescribed range. One way of producing such a signal is with pseudo random
binary sequences (PRBS) where the frequency range that is present is chosen to excite appropriate
modes in the system under test. Unfortunately, both with impulse and PRBS signals there is a danger
of saturating the system so that amplitudes at some frequencies are so large that non-linearity are
encountered and the test becomes invalid. These disadvantages can be overcome by using a signal

within a particular frequency range. One signal of this type is Schroeder phased harmonics.

follows. The displacement in thexandydirections occurring at a frequency are written in the form

transformation of time-domain signals. All of these equations (10.25) may be grouped as a single
matrix equation as
[ ] [ ] [ ] 222662 = nn AZD (10.26)
The contents of the [ ]Z matrix might be best obtained by means of a least squares estimator. This
involves recognizing that measurements obtained in the laboratory will be inaccurate and so there are
no values of the coefficient in the [ ]Z matrix which will satisfy all lines of equation (10.26). A
residual matrix is developed which defines the errors between the left hand and right hand sides of
equation (10.26) i.e.
[ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] 26622222 = ZDAE nnn (10.27)
The contents of the [ ]Z matrix are defined as being those values, which ensure that the sums of the
squares of the elements in the [ ]E matrix are minimized. On multiplying equation (10.27) by [ ]T nD 26 ,
we get
[ ] [ ][ ] [ ] [ ]ADZDD TT = or [ ] [ ] [ ][ ] [ ] [ ]ADDDZ TT 1= (10.28)
Since measured terms used to make up the [ ]D and [ ]A matrices are obtained via Fourier
transformation of the output and input signals. The noise occurring at a frequency greater than 0n is
automatically filtered out of the analysis.

10.3 Use of Centrifugal Forces
One of the simplest ways of exciting a journal in a sinusoidal manner is by means of centrifugal
forcing, simply by attaching imbalance masses of known magnitude to a rotating shaft. Advantage
with this method is that there is no need for costly electromagnetic exciter. In present method the
processing of measured data in the time domain. Out of three methods in two methods an imbalance
of known magnitude attached to the journal (and are based on the assumption that inherent rotor
imbalance is insignificantly small). The third method involves use of a separate imbalance mass shaft,
which can rotate at frequencies independent of the journal rotational frequency.
(i)Imbalance mass attached to the journal
This means of exciting the journal can be used to determine the bearing oil-film damping coefficients
when the bearing stiffness coefficients are already known. (for example by static force method). The
experimental involves measurement of the horizontal and vertical displacement amplitudes of the
journal relative to the bearing, and of the bearing or pedestals itself relative to space (fixed
foundation). In addition, measurements of the corresponding phase lag angles of each of these
displacements behind the imbalance force vector are also made.
Figure 10.8 A rotor-bearing system with an unbalance
In addition to imbalance force as shown in Figure 10.8, the rotor also has oil-film forces acting on it,
these being transmitted to rotor by shaft. Governing equations of the rotor can be written as

speed-independent then measurement at least two speed will be sufficient to obtain all eight
coefficients or by changing F and rotating the rotor at same speed (for speed-dependent bearing
parameters) all eight coefficients can be obtained.

In previous method equation (30) has eight unknowns ( , ,xx xxk c ) and it has four equations. If a test
rig capable of providing excitation by means of imbalance forcing, where the forcing frequency could
be varied without upsetting the journal rotational frequency. Thus a second equation (30) could be
obtained, resulting in eight simultaneous equations in all, by using a different value of without
upsetting the bearing Sommerfeld number. Two sets of measurements can be taken for two different
rotational frequency of secondary shaft, most convenient would be so that the steady state
position should not disturb (as shown in Figure 10.9b).

and the circular orbits are ill-conditioned. There is another possibility when ill-conditioning may
occur, namely when 11 xy = and 22 xy = for any value of , where is a constant. Then the
denominator of equation (C) becomes zero, leading to ill-conditioning. This means that a change in
orbit from one unbalance to the next is required. The ill-conditioning due to a circular orbit may be
avoided by taking measurements in both the clockwise and anticlockwise directions of rotation of the
rotor. For this case 11 jxy = and 22 jxy = . Then the denominator of equation (C) becomes
0)()( 12211221 = jxxjxxyxyx (H)
and hence, equation (C) becomes well-conditioned.
Exercise 10.5 The eight bearing stiffness and damping coefficients are to be determined by using the
method described above. Experimental measurements of journal vibration amplitude and phase lag
angle are given in the Table 10.1; pedestal vibrations are found to be negligible. Determine the values
of oil-film coefficients implied by these measurements, and the maximum change in the direct cross-
coupling terms introduced by an error of +4 in the measurement of the phase recorded as 42.5.

10.4 Transient Methods
In this method it is possible to take measurement on running machines. In this method the system
consists of a symmetrical rigid rotor mounted in two identical journal bearings. Transient vibration of
the rotor in the bearings is caused by applying a force impulse (as shown in Figure 10.10) to the rotor
center of gravity. In practice this is provided by striking the rotor with a calibrated hammer whose
head mass is known. This means of excitation results in an impulse, which lasts for a finite period of
time (typically a fraction of second). If an accelerometer is mounted in the hammerhead, it is possible
to determine the instantaneous force, which is applied to the rotor. The electrical output from the
hammer will then indicate the vibration of the applied force with time. An impulse can be considered
as made up of a number of sine waves of different frequencies, all occurring simultaneously. By
varying the hammer head mass, the stiffness of the hammer impact force (tip) and the initial hammer
head velocity, it is possible to vary the amplitude, frequency content and duration of the applied
impulse. EOM of the journal would be
xMyCxCykxkfxyxxxyxxx
= and yMyCxCykxkf yyyxyyyxy = (10.33)
Figure 10.10 An impulse in the time and frequency domains
Since forcing may be considered to be sinusoidal, albeit at several different frequencies, any one
component will be of the form in the horizontal and vertical directions

Equation (36) is similar to the case of electromagnetic exciter method (first method) except in present
case the inertia force has now also been allowed for. If forcing is applied in one direction (for example
the hammer strikes the rotor in horizontal direction) then it is possible to define the reacceptance as :

The reacceptance terms defined in equations (10.39) and (10.40) are clearly functions of frequency
and so take a different value depending on the vibration frequency being considered. The
reacceptance terms are in general complex because displacement and force are not in-phase. The
method of determining the oil-film stiffness and damping coefficient makes use only of the modulus
of the reacceptance terms, however, doesnot use the data describing phase. In experiment the right
hand side of equations (10.39)-(10.40) exist at many different frequencies simultaneously, and the
corresponding receptance terms must be determined for each of these frequencies. The reacceptance
will be

This may be obtained in experiment by spectrum analyzer and it will display reacceptance as shown

The above reacceptances have been obtained from right hand side of equations (10.39)-(10.40) using
two independent forcing. Now our aim is to obtain xxk etc. so that when it is substituted back in left
hand side of equation (10.39)-(10.40) it should give the value of the right hand side of equation
(10.39)-(10.40). These processes can be repeated until appropriate values are found which results in
the difference between left hand side and right hand side of equations (10.39)-(10.40) being
minimized, for all frequencies under consideration. The least squares error criteria may be used so
that to minimize a scalar quantity

Using filter synchronous the imbalance response must be subtracted as shown in Figure 10.12.

Step function: This step function can be generated by giving gradual static load to the rotor and
suddenly releasing the load at well defined upper limit of the static load as shown in Figure 10.13.
