What is critical speed

What is critical speed?

E

Expert

Verified

It refers to the speed at which machine vibrates most violently. It is because of several reasons, like the imbalance or harmonic vibrations which are set up by entire machine. In order to minimize the damage, turbine must be quick through the known critical speed as quickly as possible.
