About this book

Vibration of Hydraulic Machinery deals with the vibration problem which has significant influence on the safety and reliable operation of hydraulic machinery. It provides new achievements and the latest developments in these areas, even in the basic areas of this subject.
The present book covers the fundamentals of mechanical vibration and rotordynamics as well as their main numerical models and analysis methods for the vibration prediction. The mechanical and hydraulic excitations to the vibration are analyzed, and the pressure fluctuations induced by the unsteady turbulent flow is predicted in order to obtain the unsteady loads. This book also discusses the loads, constraint conditions and the elastic and damping characters of the mechanical system, the structure dynamic analysis, the rotor dynamic analysis and the system instability of hydraulic machines, including the illustration of monitoring system for the instability and the vibration in hydraulic units. All the problems are necessary for vibration prediction of hydraulic machinery.

Reviews

From the reviews:

“The theme of this book is utilizing numerical modeling methods to predict vibration in hydraulic machinery, such as turbines and pumps. The book provides latest development and case studies in this area. … the authors provide appropriate references in each section for further reading. … this book provides a comprehensive overview of vibration modeling for hydraulic machinery. … The book is a good reference to researchers and students who are interested in hydraulic machinery, CFD or fluid–structure coupled analysis.” (Jinghao Liu, Noise Control Engineering Journal, Vol. 62 (1), January-February, 2014)
