From my own experience, in creating XLRotor I wanted
a comprehensive analysis tool for rotordynamics where user productivity
is paramount. It was absolutely essential that the program execute
lightning fast, be extremely easy to use, and avoid the use of
model size reduction so as to always deliver maximum accuracy.
I’m confident that engineers who use XLRotor will be very
pleased with the software and the results it delivers.

XLRotor 3.84 evaluation version is available for download. Check
out the XLRotor release notes to see what's new in the release.
Announcing XLHydroDyn. This is a new program for full in-depth analysis and design of radial hydrodynamic fluid film bearings.
This is an optional module which does much more than the table-lookup Xljrnl module.
A note about compatibility with Excel version
2007. Xlrotor is now compatible with Excel 2007. However,
Excel 2007 runs macros significantly slower than any previous Excel
version. RMA, Inc. recommends not using Excel 2007
until Office Service Packs improve the performance of this version.
