Chaos of flexible rotor system with critical speed in magnetic bearing based on the improved precise Runge–Kutta hybrid integration

Magnetic rotor-bearing system has drawn great attention because of its several advantages compared to existent rotor-bearing system, and explicit Runge–Kutta method has achieved good results in solving dynamic equation. However, research on flexible rotor of magnetic bearing is relatively less. Moreover, explicit Runge–Kutta needs a smaller integral step to ensure the stability of the calculation. In this article, we propose a nonlinear dynamic analysis of flexible rotor of active magnetic bearing established by using the finite element method. The precise Runge–Kutta hybrid integration method and the largest Lyapunov exponent are used to analyze the chaos of the rotor system at the first- and second-order critical speed of the rotor. Experiment on chaos analysis has shown that compared with the explicit Runge–Kutta method, the precise Runge–Kutta hybrid integration method can improve the convergence step of calculation significantly while avoiding iterative solution and maintain high accuracy which is four times the increase of the integral step.
