About this document
Controlling Whirl and Whip Instability by oashour is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses how externally pressurized bearings and seals can be used to control whirl and whip instability in rotors. Whirl occurs at low eccentricity ratios and is controlled by bearing stiffness, while whip occurs at high eccentricity ratios and is controlled by shaft stiffness. Externally pressurized bearings allow control of bearing stiffness through external pressurization, which can be used to increase the threshold of instability and eliminate both whirl and whip without other disadvantag
