Many factors affect the vibration of the hydraulic unit, including the natural oscillation frequencies of the structural elements, which in some cases may contribute to an increase in vibration because of the occurrence of resonance phenomena.
In this work, the case of design optimization of the support assemblies of the shaft pipeline of the hydrogenerator-motor was considered, installed at HSPP during its reconstruction in order to improve vibration parameters. The effect of increasing the stiffness of the upper crosspiece and reducing the weight of the rotating parts on the value of the first and second critical rotation frequencies was analyzed. Based on the results of computations, operability of the proposed new reinforced structure of the upper crosspiece of the hydrogenerator-motor with increased rigidity was confirmed. Using this design could increase the first critical rotation frequency from 9 Hz (540 rpm) to 17.6 Hz (1056 rpm). This would lead to the avoidance of resonance phenomena caused by the proximity of the first critical rotation frequency of the rotor to the rated rotation frequency (600 rpm).
The computations were performed in a three-dimensional setting in two stages for each of the considered design cases. At the first stage, the supporting elements rigidity of the shaft line of the hydrogenerator-motor were studied by determining the structural element elastic deformations when it was loaded by a transverse force. At the second stage, these determined stiffnesses of the support elements were used as input data for calculating the critical rotation frequencies of the hydraulic unit rotor
