An Experimental Analysis of Pressure Pulsations in the Steam Admission Elements of a Turbine Installation
A. G. Kostyuk, A. I. Kumenko, A. L. Nekrasov, S. V. Kalinin, and S. V. Medvedev
Abstract—The results of an analysis of the dynamic-acoustical characteristics of the system, the control valve- steam pipe-nozzle box (CVSPNB), and full-scale experimental studies of two turbines with the aid of computer technologies and analog-digital methods are presented. New qualitative and quantitative data on the pulsational characteristics of flows in the steam admission system and their correlation with the vibrational characteristics of the movable elements in the valves and the supports of the turbine installation are obtained.

Analysis of Vibrations in the Steam Piping System for Steam Turbines
A. G. Kostyuk
Abstract—Vibrations are considered in the system control valve–steam piping (supplying steam to the nozzle box)–nozzle box of the high-pressure cylinder (the CVSPNB system). A mathematical model for this system is proposed. It can be used in studying the influence of constructional and performance factors in exciting acoustic resonance and system stability.

Analysis of Subharmonic and Self-Excited Oscillations of Rotor - Plain Bearing Systems
A. G. Kostyuk, A. L. Nekrasov, and A. I. Kumenko
Abstract—The oscillations of two-support rotors of different stiffness set on two types of plain bearings are considered. Here, natural oscillations due to an initial disturbance and oscillations that arise after suddenly getting out of balance are analyzed. It is shown that self-excited oscillations of great amplitude and subharmonic oscillations whose frequencies are fractions of the rotating speed (frequency) can arise in these systems. Among the latter, the most distinct are subharmonic oscillations whose frequency is equal to one half the rotating frequency.
