METHOD OF ASSEMBLING A ROTOR STACK

摘要

A method of assembling a rotor stack comprising a plurality of component parts, the method comprising: determining swash measurements for interfacing surfaces of the plurality of parts; calculating a runout estimate for a plurality of relative orientations of the parts; applying an optimisation algorithm to identify an optimal orientation from the plurality of relative orientations based on the runout estimates; and assembling the parts in the optimal orientation.

1. A method of assembling a rotor stack comprising a plurality of component parts, the method comprising:
determining swash measurements for interfacing surfaces of the plurality of parts; calculating a runout estimate for a plurality of relative orientations of the parts; applying an optimisation algorithm to identify an optimal orientation from the plurality of relative orientations based on the runout estimates; and assembling the parts in the optimal orientation; wherein at least one of the plurality of parts is selected from an inventory of available parts; and wherein the runout estimate is compared with a threshold value, and if it falls outside of the threshold value, a different combination of parts is selected.
