The document discusses torsional vibration of shafts in marine propulsion systems. It covers topics like different types of vibrations, principles, necessary data, calculations, optimization methods and comparison between calculations and measurements.

The three types of shaft vibrations discussed are torsional vibration, axial vibration, and whirling vibration.

The three types of engine vibrations discussed are H mode (transverse direction), X mode (transverse direction), and L mode (longitudinal direction).

7. Comparison between Calculation and Measurement


7.3 Measurement Variation
1) The vibration measurement itself may have the fluctuation
2) Five(5) measurement results for sister vessels
Measured values: approximately 95% ~ 120% of calculation at critical speed
Major background for measurement fluctuation

The varied engine load by sea status


Temperature of sea water
Influence on propeller damping
by water density
3) The actual stress and torque
will be reduced by minimum
20~30% owing to quick passage
on barred speed range.
