Abstract

Traditionally, active magnetic bearing (AMB) systems are designed as an integral component of machines having generally complex dynamic characteristics. An AMB supported rotor has been tested over a speed range that included system natural vibration frequencies. A linear stiffness and viscous damping AMB characteristic with constant coefficients was identified which was independent of the overall system characteristics and which can thus provide simple and transferable data for a machine designer.
