The Pressure Field in the Gas-lubricated Step Slider Bearing
نویسندگان
چکیده
Singular perturbation methods are applied to an analysis of the operation of an isothermal gas step slider bearing of narrow geometry and operating at moderate bearing numbers. Approximate expressions are obtained for the pressure field in the lubricating gap, as well as the load-carrying capacity of the bearing; and the influence of the nature of the bearing step on those quantities is investigated. Comparisons are made with results obtained using a standard numerical package.

This paper proposes mathematical modeling and analysis of ferrofluid lubricated newly designed slider bearing having convex pad (surface or plate) stator with two porous layers attached to the slider. The problem considers the effect of slip velocity proposed by Sparrow et. al.[1] and modified by Shah et. al.[2] at the film-porous interface. The squeeze velocity V=−which appears when the upper ...
متن کاملThe accuracy of the compressible Reynolds equation for predicting the local pressure in gas-lubricated textured parallel slider bearings.
The validity of the compressible Reynolds equation to predict the local pressure in a gas-lubricated, textured parallel slider bearing is investigated. The local bearing pressure is numerically simulated using the Reynolds equation and the Navier-Stokes equations for different texture geometries and operating conditions. The respective results are compared and the simplifying assumptions inhere...

متن کاملModelling lubricated revolute joints in multibody mechanical systems
This work deals with the modelling of lubricated revolute joints in multibody mechanical systems. In most machines and mechanisms, the joints are designed to operate with some lubricant fluid. The high pressures generated in the lubricant fluid act to keep the journal and the bearing apart. Moreover, the thin film formed by lubricant reduces friction and wear, provides load capacity and adds da...
