Stabilization of Centrifuges with Instabilities Due to Fluid-Structure Interactions: Various Control Approaches HEINZ ULBRICH*, ADRIAN CYLLIK and GUIDO AHAUS Universiti(tt-GH Essen, Lehrstuhlfftr Mechanik, FB 12, Schfitzenbahn 70, 45127 Essen, Germany (Received30 May 2000, In final form 21 June 2000) Partially filled centrifuges exhibit unstable behavior over particular rotational speed ranges. To remove this unstable behavior, three different control approaches are presented which are experimentally implemented using a magnetic bearing. First, by means of a PD-controller the system stiffness is changed leading to a shift of the in- stability region. Second, the instability region is removed by a cross coupled feed back of the rotor vibration velocities. This cross coupling directly counteracts the fluid exci- tation mechanism. Third, a disturbance observer is presented which allows to estimate and compensate the not exactly known fluid force.
