AIM:
To determine the period and frequency of torsional vibration of the two rotor
system experimentally and compare it with the theoretical values
APPARATUS REQUIRED:
Shaft
Spanner
Chuck key
Stop Watch
Measuring Tape
Weights and cross arms
Two discs having different mass moment of inertia are clamped one at each end
of shaft by means of collet. Mass moment of inertia of any disc can be changed by
attaching the cross lever with weights. Both discs are free to oscillate in the ball
bearings. This provides negligible damping during experiment

Torsional stiffness, Kt = ( G Ip ) / L , Nm
Where,
G = modulus of rigidity of the shaft, N/m2
L = length of the shaft between discs, m
Polar moment of inertia, Ip = ( π / 32 ) d4 , m4
Where,
d = shaft diameter, m
Experimental frequency of vibration, F exp = 1 / T exp , Hz
Theoretical frequency of vibration, F theo = 1 / T theo , Hz
PROCEDURE:
1) Fix the discs A and B to the shaft and fit the shaft in bearing.
2) Deflect the discs A and B in opposite directions by hand and release.
3) Note down the time required for n = 5 oscillations.
4) Fit the cross arm to the disc A and attach equal masses to the ends of cross arm and
again note down time.
5) Repeat the above procedure with different equal masses attached to the ends of cross
arm.
