Abstract

Specific features relating to the motion of a rotor with rubbing against the stator and the rolling of a rotor over the stator are considered. Conditions under which rolling of the rotor over the stator occurs and the kinematic and force characteristics of this phenomenon are investigated. Simple analytical solutions are obtained for a model assuming that an absolutely rigid rotor and an absolutely rigid stator come in absolutely inelastic contact with each other, which allow one to get a clear idea about the roll-over phenomenon. An attempt is made on the basis of the proposed model to understand some striking features of the accident that occurred in the 300 MW power unit at the Kashira district power station in 2002.
