Torsional vibration

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The torsional vibration or torsional vibration is an important mechanical vibration in technology . In contrast to translational oscillation, torsional oscillation involves an oscillation around the rotational degree of freedom of a system.

General

When single-mass oscillator, the resulting oscillation period depends ( period ) from the rigidity of the torsion spring and the rotational inertia of the coupled rotation crowd. In the case of multi-mass oscillators, the torsion springs are usually torque-transmitting components such as shafts or couplings , between which the rotational inertia (e.g. gear wheels or flywheels ) are located.

Desired torsional vibrations

Torsional vibrations are desirable in areas where they are required as a time standard , such as the vibrating balance wheel in mechanical watches .

Undesired torsional vibrations

In vehicles or ship propulsion systems with internal combustion engines , torsional vibrations are often excited by the rotational irregularity of the crankshaft and must therefore be dampened accordingly. These torsional vibrations are undesirable (e.g. in mechanical drive systems ) where they are the cause of component failure, disturbing noise or vibration . The calculation of the torsional vibration properties ( natural frequencies , natural modes ) is therefore a fundamental task when designing a drive system.

The term roller burnishing is used for rail vehicles . Rolling describes torsional vibrations of the two wheels of a wheelset against each other, which results in torsional vibration in the wheelset shaft . The torsional vibrations cause wear that can be prevented by anti-roll protection.

damping

Frequently, damper elements such as special elastic couplings (e.g. dual mass flywheel ) or additional flywheels ( vibration absorbers ) are integrated into the drive train . Torsional vibrations in systems that actually run smoothly can be stabilized again by means of magnetic coils that generate vibrations in push-pull.

simulation

In order to be able to develop drive trains better, torsional vibrations of an internal combustion engine can be simulated with a torsional vibration generator.
