Plot Campbell Diagram

Create a Campbell diagram.

You need a modal rotordynamic analysis with results to complete this task.

  1. In the Project Tree, select a Modal rotordynamic analysis branch to open the Analysis Workbench.
  2. In the Analysis Workbench, click Diagrams.
  3. Select Campbell diagram from the drop-down.
    The Campbell diagram dialog shows the plot for all the complex eigen value modes.
  4. In the dialog, pick a point from one of the curves to see the Angular velocity with respect to Frequency in the legend.
  5. To calculate the critical speeds, use Angular velocity multipliers. Input a desired multiplier value and select Add.
    A linear curve appears intersecting the possible modal curves. These intersection points are the critical speeds.
  6. Optional: Select Remove all to delete the multiplier curves.
  7. Optional: Click Save as to save the plot in image formats (.png, .bmp, .pdf)
