Vibration and rotor dynamics of large high-speed motors driving compressors in the oil and gas industry

All electric drive compressor systems are not only more efficient and reliable, but also help to reduce the CO 2 footprint. Another advantage of using fully electric drives instead of gas turbines is that electric motors can start up the process much faster and smoother than gas turbine compressor s...

Description
Summary:All electric drive compressor systems are not only more efficient and reliable, but also help to reduce the CO 2 footprint. Another advantage of using fully electric drives instead of gas turbines is that electric motors can start up the process much faster and smoother than gas turbine compressor systems. Besides the mechanical design, rotordynamic design, external factors such as foundation design can affect the vibration of the drive train.
