Abstract
Purpose: Vibration is a major issue in turbomachines which causes damage to them and leads to reduction in life and efficiency. This paper reviews various methods to measure the amount of vibration in various turbomachines and also discusses various reasons for the same. This will significantly assist in articulating these vibrations. Procedure: This paper lists various experiments done, causes, factors, comparison of different turbomachines and their results. Turbomachines which are taken into consideration are Francis turbine, radial turbines, axial turbines, compressors, pumps and fans. Result: The outcome elucidates the changes in vibrations as a function of different input parameters. Conclusion: It can be concluded through various experiments on different types of turbomachines that the major causes of vibrations are cavitation and resonance while excess speed and longer operating periods too contribute to them.
