Next Course Date TBC
Duration 2 Days
Location
Recommended for Managers, engineers, supervisors, technicians and operators involved in: Turbo-machinery operation, maintenance and reliability.

 

Topics include:

  • Eddy current displacement probes
  • Machinery protection systems
  • Journal bearing types
  • Software options
  • Rotordynamic plot types:
    • Bode
    • Shaft centreline
    • Orbits
    • Full spectrum
  • Common faults
  • Case studies

 

Training Course Overview

A two-day practical introduction and understanding into turbomachinery rotor dynamics, this introduction will allow clients rotating equipment engineers and technicians to fully understand rotor dynamic reports and key behaviour activity in turbomachinery to aid in longer term understanding of critical equipment reliability on the plant.

The class will learn about normal and troubleshooting rotor behaviour and which information is key to understand common failure modes, the class will focus on real-time hands-on application using our rotor dynamics kit, which will be used throughout.

Training Course Objectives

Introduction to machinery management and diagnostics
Organise data plots for preparation to aid in identification of failure modes
Phase measurements and understanding
Steady state data
Transient data
Fundamental rotor responses
Introduction to single and multi-plane balancing
Pre-loads and radial measurements
Vibration responses
Radial rubs
Fluid whip and whirl
Shaft cracks

Requirements for Certification

No prior knowledge is required. Mathematics will be kept to the minimum necessary for an understanding of the subject.
