In these systems, vibration is caused by rotating components. As a result, to decrease the amplitude of vibrations created by rotating equipment, it’s required to understand the system's behavior. In this work, the problem of vibrations in conventional bearing systems and the effect of adding active magnetic bearings to rotating machines to reduce the amplitude of vibrations are discussed. In this paper, the vibrations in the rotary bearing system were studied theoretically and analytically using simulation programs to calculate the natural frequencies and parameters affecting the performance. In the theoretical part, the shaft of the rotating bearing was analyzed by the Jeffcott method depending on several parameters that were changed with the frequency value to observe the amplitude of the vibration in the shaft. An analytical aspect by simulation, a representative model of active magnetic bearings was built using the COMSOL 2020 program, The effect of adding these bearings on capacitance, vibration reduction, and frequency behavior was examined. SolidWorks 2018 software was used to analyze the magnetic field and its distribution in the magnetic bearing coil. The results indicate that when active magnetic bearings were introduced to the rotating bearing shafts, the vibration amplitude was reduced by approximately 60%. From this work, it can be concluded that the system becomes more stable when the active magnetic bearing is added to the rotating bearing shaft, giving it a more stable and firm nature.
