Effect of Cavitation and Temperature on Fluid Film Bearing Using CFD and FSI Technique: A Review

Abstract Fluid film bearings are well suited for high-speed industrial machineries like turbine generators and marine propulsion systems. Several numerical methods employed to theoretically investigate the flow phenomenon performance parameters of journal bearings, operating under various conditions. This paper reviews Computational Dynamics (CFD) Fluid–Structure Interaction (FSI) techniques that adopted solve equations pertaining fluid bearings. review attempts highlight importance cavitation, temperature, their effect on bearing using CFD FSI techniques. A comparison in form load-carrying capacity, oil rate, friction as deformation stresses developed element due pressure FSI, also presented. Observations from reviewed literature presented which aims benefit researchers working field both analysis hydrodynamic bearing. Graphical article emphasized significance cavitation temperature effects
