Multiscale analysis and numerical simulation of hydrodynamic inclined fixed pad thrust bearing with ultra low surface separation

In the hydrodynamic inclined fixed pad thrust bearing, when surface separation is ultra low, there will be special mode where in inlet zone occur both adsorbed boundary layer flows and intermediate continuum fluid flow i.e. multiscale outlet only occurs physical flow. This new of bearing has not been addressed before. Here, we present corresponding analysis for this bearing. The described by closed-form explicit equations. nanoscale equation. First, analytical derivations pressure distribution carried load were feasibly made making a reasonable assumption. Then, full numerical solutions to obtained verify solution. It was found that are significant differences between analytically calculated numerically solved same operating condition; however studied different fluid-bearing interactions, relatively large, derived equation can used calculate Numerical clearly show stronger interaction, higher generated larger study provides mathematical tools studying but also gives indication strong effect
