Cómo repartir el desbalance residual permisible total entre dos planos
For a two-support rotor, the total permissible residual unbalance (U_{mathrm{per}}) is distributed between two correction planes based on rotor geometry and the rotor center of mass (CM) position. Below are the core rules from ISO 21940-11, including the 70:30 limitation set out in Clause 7.2.2 of the standard.
Definiciones
- (U_{mathrm{per}}): total permissible residual unbalance for the rotor.
- (U_{mathrm{per}A}), (U_{mathrm{per}B}): permissible residual unbalance allocated to planes A and B.
- (L): distance between planes A and B.
- (L_A): distance from CM to plane A.
- (L_B): distance from CM to plane B.
- Geometry relation: (L = L_A + L_B).
1) Rotor simétrico
If the rotor is symmetric and the CM is approximately centered between the planes, split the allowance equally:
(U_{mathrm{per}A} = U_{mathrm{per}B} = dfrac{U_{mathrm{per}}}{2})
Este método se ajusta a la mayoría de los casos estándar donde el rotor es casi simétrico.
2) Rotor asimétrico (regla de la palanca)
If the CM shifts toward one support, distribute the allowance using the lever rule, proportional to the distance from the CM to the opposite plane:
(U_{mathrm{per}A} = U_{mathrm{per}} cdot dfrac{L_B}{L})
(U_{mathrm{per}B} = U_{mathrm{per}} cdot dfrac{L_A}{L})
Here, (L) is the distance between planes, and (L_A) and (L_B) are distances from the CM to planes A and B respectively.
Limitación importante: regla 70:30
To avoid extreme accuracy requirements in one plane, ISO 21940-11:2016 (Clause 7.2.2) stipulates for inboard rotors — i.e. with the centre of mass located between the bearing planes — that the split shall be limited to a 70:30 ratio. Even if the CM is very close to one plane/support:
- The smaller share should not be less than (0.3 cdot U_{mathrm{per}}).
- The larger share should not exceed (0.7 cdot U_{mathrm{per}}).
(0.3 cdot U_{mathrm{per}} le U_{mathrm{per}A},, U_{mathrm{per}B} le 0.7 cdot U_{mathrm{per}})
Note: these limits apply to inboard rotors. For outboard (overhung) rotors, Clause 7.2.3 of the standard allows the larger share to reach (1.3 cdot U_{mathrm{per}}), while the smaller share must still be at least (0.3 cdot U_{mathrm{per}}).
