A theoretical analysis has been carried out to determine the stability characteristics of externally pressurized porous oil journal bearings of finite length considering the tangential velocity slip at the bearing-film interface. The stability curves have been drawn for different slip parameters, eccentricity ratios, slenderness ratios, bearing speed parameters etc.

This investigation deals with the stability characteristics of oil filled porous journal bearings of finite length and with velocity slip. The stability curves are drawn for different slip parameters, eccentricity ratios, slenderness ratios, and in the absence of any experimental data, the theoretical results for the solid bearings obtained by this analysis have been compared with the available results of solid bearing.

A theoretical investigation to find out the dynamic characteristics of porous journal bearings of finite length has been carried out considering the Beavers-Joseph crierion of velocity slip at the bearing film interface. It has been shown that the effect of velocity slip on the dynamic characteristics is small.

The objective of the present investigation is to study theoretically, using the finite-difference techniques, the dynamic performance characteristics of finite-hydrodynamic porous journal bearings lubricated with coupled stress fluids. In the analysis based on the Stokes micro-continuum theory of the rheological effects of coupled stress fluids, a modified form of Reynolds equation governing the transient-state hydrodynamic film pressures in porous journal bearings with the effect of slip flow of coupled stress fluid as lubricant is obtained. Moreover, the tangential velocity slip at the surface of porous bush has been considered by using Beavers-Joseph criterion. Using the first-order perturbation of the modified Reynolds equation, the stability characteristics in terms of threshold stability parameter and whirl ratios are obtained for various parameters viz. permeability factor, slip coefficient, bearing feeding parameter, and eccentricity ratio. The results show that the coupled stress fluid exhibits better stability in comparison with Newtonian fluid.

The purpose of the present work is to study theoretically the conical whirl instability of unloaded self-acting porous gas journal bearings considering the tangential velocity slip at the bearing-film interface. The hydrodynamic pressure developed in the bearing clearance due to angular displacements of the journal at the midplane of the bearing is obtained by the simultaneous solution of equation of continuity in the porous medium and the modified Reynolds equations, satisfying the appropriate boundary conditions. With the help of the dynamic tilting stiffness and damping coefficients, stability characteristic is obtained. The effects of various parameters on conical stability parameter have been investigated for a nongyroscopic system.

This paper discusses the stability of a rigid rotor supported by double-row admission journal bearings with circular slot restrictors. In the theoretical analysis, the energy loss at the outlet of the slot is taken into account because the gas flow is subject to a rapid change in direction, and here, the energy loss coefficient is determined experimentally. It is found that a better agreement between the theoretical and experimental results for the threshold of instability can be obtained by considering the energy loss. Furthermore, in this paper, it is shown experimentally that an aerostatic journal bearing with circular slot restrictors has higher stiffness and higher stability than a conventional point source bearing with inherently compensated feeding holes.

An analysis based on first-order perturbation theory is presented for the determination of pneumatic instability of a rigid rotor supported on externally pressurized porous gas journal bearings considering velocity slip. The variation of threshold mass parameter with feeding parameter for various supply pressures and L/D ratios under slip and no slip conditions is shown. It has been observed that there is a little decrease in stability when slip is taken in the analysis.

A theoretical analysis is presented for the study of pneumatic instability for a rigid rotor supported in externally pressurized porous gas journal bearings. The analysis is based on a first-order perturbation with respect to the amplitude of dynamic displacement of rotor. The variation of threshold mass parameter with feeding parameter is shown. In addition, the effects of supply pressure, eccentricity ratio, L/D ratio, and porosity parameter are investigated and presented in the form of graphs.

The subsynchronous whirl stability limit of a rigid rotor supported on two symmetrical finite journal bearings has been studied using the linearised perturbation method and the nonlinear transient analysis technique. A quantitative comparison for journal bearings with different l/d ratios has been provided.
