| description | This study presents an experimental analysis of a turbocharger equipped with a semi-floating bearing system, with a particular focus on the bifurcation phenomenon within the subsynchronous vibration spectrum. A predefined design of experiments (DoE) methodology was employed to determine the measurement domains to be analyzed, where the primary input parameters included the lubricant supply temperature and pressure values. The bifurcation phenomenon in relation to the physical parameters of the system is observed via vibration and displacement sensors in two directions, enabling the collection of subsynchronous frequency data for further insights into the influence of lubricant parameters on the rotor system. While the nonlinear effect of oil temperature is well studied in the literature. However, the combined effect of oil supply temperature and pressure was not yet examined, which was the focus of the present study. This paper aims to investigate its coupled effects on the bifurcation phenomenon associated with both lubricant temperature and pressure. The occurrence of the introduced phenomenon is further examined to enhance the understanding of the uncharted behavior of turbocharger rotors and other rotor-bearing-based machinery. |
