Static and Dynamic loads of the Fans"},"content":{"rendered":"\n
The static load of the fan consists in its own weight in N (Newton). However the fan is a rotating machine not perfectly balanced, even when it is new. Furthermore, during the rotation, the fan may be used with gases including corrosive, clogging or abrasive dust which are able to deteriorate the balancing of the fan and consequently cause an additional load on static one called dynamic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The dynamic load is the cyclic force applied to the fan bearings when the gravity center of the dynamic parts (hub + shaft + coupling (or pulley)) does not match with the rotational center. Like any centrifugal force, the dynamic load is function of the rotor\u2019s mass, the square of the rotational speed and the distance between the center of rotation and the center of gravity called eccentricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dynamic load of new fan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
We define the quality of a balancing, G, as the product of the rotor vibration velocity \u03c9 (rad\/s) by the specific unbalance eper (\u00b5m or gr.mm\/kg). For example, if an impeller rotates at 1480 RPM and the balancing quality is G 6.3; the angular velocity \u03c9 = 1480×2\u03c0 \/ 60 = 155 rad\/s and the specific unbalance is eper = G \/ \u03c9 x 10\u00b3 (\u00b5m) = 40.6 \u00b5m (or gr.mm\/kg).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This equal to say that grade 6.3 allows a deviation of 40.6 \u00b5m between the center of rotation and the rotor\u2019s center of gravity at the speed of 1480 RPM. If the rotor\u2019s mass is 530 kg, then the nascent centrifugal force due to the residual unbalancing is:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Realistic dynamic load<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This last value is however a theoretical value and the calculation of the cyclic centrifugal force must be assigned with a service coefficient taking into account a misalignment, corrosion or clogging during the period of service. All those last causes can potentially be the reason of a substantial increase of the forces applied cyclically to the bearings and therefore to the machine\u2019s frame. When calculating the foundations, a realistic dynamic load must be applied to ensure enough machine\u2019s resistance to the maximum vibration level. The formula (a) becomes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
Some manufacturers are using the value corresponding at 1\/3 of the rotor\u2019s weight. It is according our opinion not enough: the practice in heavy industrial environment shows that the fan can be subject to dynamical loads much more important. To ensure security the dynamical load that we use is equal to 3 times the rotor\u2019s weight and must be added to the static load for the calculation of the foundations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
