6. Locate the C.G of the compressor and the engine and connect the
c.g. of compressor and engine to the skid beams with stiff members
at respective location. (See Figure XX.)
7. Connect the C.G of Engine and Compressor with horizontal member
(Crank Shaft).
8. Release the moments at the engine end so that all shear transfers
from compressor to engine.
9. Prepare the SACS model for the Dynamic analysis.
10.Work from top deck level to the bottom level retaining the degrees
of freedom (222000) based on the load path.
11.Consider the boundary joints to be pinned (Reason check with
Gavin)
12.Environmental loads are not considered
Dynpac Input File: Used to extract mode shape file and Dynamic
mass file, which are need for the Dynamic response analysis.
1. Extract sufficient number of modes to obtain frequency greater
than 4 times the engine running speed (Ex: 1400RPM = 4x1400/60
= 93.3 cps, therefore extract mode shapes such that frequency
greater than 93.3 cps).
2. Calculate the mass moment of inertia of compressor and engine
assuming it to be a box or prism.
3. Apply the weight of compressor and engine as joint weights in all
directions (X,Y,Z) along with the mass moment of inertia calculated
above
4. Check the structural response at various mode shapes in order to
determine the any errors/disconnected joints in the model
5. Make sure that the mass participation is above 90 % (min 80 %).
Retained degrees of freedom directly affects the mass participation
factor.
Vibration Analysis
Mass Participation factor: Should be nearly 90%. Retained degrees of
freedom affect the mass participation factor.
