A Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Lubricated Thrust Bearing Contact Model

A fully-coupled thermoelastic model for a fixed pad thrust bearing has been developed. Pressure, film thickness and three-dimensional temperature profiles were obtained by simultaneously solving the Reynolds, film thickness, energy and force balance equations using a combined finite difference and finite element method. The elastic deformation due to the pressure and the thermal distortion due ...

Numerical Investigation on the Effect of Tunnel Height on Drag Reduction in a High Speed Trimaran

There are different methods to reduce drag in high speed hulls. One of these methods is a change in the shape of the body by adding longitudinal side tunnels. In this paper it has been attempted to determine the influence of the tunnel height on hydrodynamic characteristics of the hull to achieving an optimum shape for the tunnel. To achieve this purpose, numerical simulation of the problem has...

Experimental Performance Study of a High Speed Oil Lubricated Polymer Thrust Bearing

With the demand for turbomachinery to operate at higher speeds, loads, and power, fluid film bearings that support turbomachinery must be capable of operating in these more demanding applications. Thrust bearings operating at high speeds and loads can experience high surface temperatures and thin fluid film thickness. Typically, babbitt (white metal) is the bearing lining material for most turb...
