Abstract

This paper deals with the “DYNAMIC BALANCING OF A BLOWER IMPELLER FOR THE PASSENGER SHIP”. Dynamic balancing is the most important concept for rotating parts of marine machinery. Any rotor with an uneven distribution of mass about its axis of rotation has an unbalance. If there is any unbalance present in the parts of rotating machinery which will effect on connected bearings and connected parts. Then these rotating parts will be damaged because of its vibrations. Hence the particular rotary parts like shaft, blower, impeller and other connected rotating parts which are having unbalance of its own improper casting or machining. These unbalance to be removed by using the procedure of dynamic balancing. By using the dynamic balancing the vibration developed in rotating parts will be minimized. In this paper we determine the unbalance mass present in the blower impeller and we also suggested removing the extra mass where it is present or adding mass at an angle opposite to the unbalanced mass.

Keywords

Dynamic balancing, blower impeller, marine machinery, rotor, unbalanced mass.
