Abstract:
An aspect of the present disclosure is directed to a method for mitigating rotor bow in a turbo machine. The method includes rotating a rotor over a first period of time; discontinuing rotation of the rotor for a second period of time; and iterating, over an overall period of time, rotation of the rotor over the first period of time and discontinuing rotation of the rotor for the second period of time.
