... that of the EG speed during consecutive stepwise EG speed changes, implying the GFB friction and rotor inertia led to time delays of ∼2.6 s. The measured pressures and temperatures showed trends following second-order polynomials against EG speed. Regarding TC efficiency, 4.3 kW of mechanical power was supplied...

... for analysis, than the previous one degree-of-freedom model. Its closed-form solution is given including reverse rub amplitudes and relative phases, as well as the normal contact force. The exact frequency equation in polynomial form yields reverse full annular rub frequencies without having to neglect any...

..., the differential equations are converted into algebraic ones. A polynomial in speed is obtained through algebraic manipulations. This polynomial represents the steady-state behavior of the rotor-SFD system. The full unbalance response is directly obtained by finding the roots of the polynomial for each particular...
