Özet

Vibration in pumps is a common problem and can lead to various problems that can affect the performance, reliability, and safety of the equipment. When pumps vibrate excessively, it can lead to decreased efficiency, increased wear, and premature failure of pump components. Therefore, it is essential to address pump vibration quickly and effectively. Maintenance personnel can take corrective action by monitoring and diagnosing the cause of pump vibration, which will help ensure reliable and efficient pump operation, reduce downtime, and improve workplace safety. This study conducted experimental work to determine the static specifications, such as tensile and tear strength of specimens manufactured from natural rubber reinforced with materials such as ZnO, MWCNTs, and NaHCO3. Another essential dynamic study was performed on a structure of aluminum sheets resting on flexible rubber foundations. The rubber base around the outer bottom border of the metal plate (Al6061) will be 15 mm wide and in three thicknesses (5, 10, 15) mm. In this work, both computational and experimental methodologies for creating elastomers with confirmed material constants are investigated. The FEA analysis of the seventy-two samples showed results related to the fundamental natural frequencies with a maximum variance value of 3.37%.
