Torsional Vibration References

Torsional Vibration References

Torsional Vibration References

(OP)
I am looking for modern books and references on calculation of torsional vibration, such as the torque harmonics of a reciprocating compressor. The ones I have are ancient, by Ker Wilson and Nestorides. Any popular modern ones or were those the final word?

RE: Torsional Vibration References

I use Mechanical Vibrations by Den Hartog, also an "ancient" text but a wonderful book none the less. I put together a quick Holzer table in excel based on the equations out of this book and now have a decent program for checking torsionals on recips or other pieces of equipment.

RE: Torsional Vibration References

sms,

I am currently trying to analyze torsional vibrations between a e-motor and hyd. pump. In your spreadsheet, do you consider the coupling hub's inertia? And, are you willing to share your spreadsheet?

RE: Torsional Vibration References

dear Modula2,
For my personal interest would you like to share some compressor details? Since i am also working on reciprocating compressor.
regards,
jo
