Balancing of High Speed Turbine Rotors.
(OP)
Balancing of high speed turbine rotors details.
Speed: 4596 RPM
Type of balancing (grade): dynamic as per API-617
Biggest impeller diameter: 1346 mm
Rotor weight: 7286.6 Kg.
i want to know which type of drive system to be used for balancing of such type of rotors.
Unversal Joint drive or Belt drive system.
unversal joint drive means:-drive by coupled drive & belt drive means rotor driven by belt whilw balancing.

RE: Balancing of High Speed Turbine Rotors.
An end drive balance procedure should include indexing the u-joint/drive shaft to test for the driveshaft's influence. There will be some.

Not ours but similar. Look at the biggest one it can also be belt driven.

Comparing Calcs for HP that can be transmitted with available drive diameters/rpm Vs windage HP may eliminate belt drive real quick. Paper and tape or clamshell housings may reduce windage some, but there's a limit.
