Tilting Pad Journal Bearing

Calculated steady-state and dynamic characteristics are given for the four-pad, tilting-pad journal bearing with preload coefficients of 0 and 0.5 and for mean Reynolds up to 12,000. The calculated characteristics are compared with experimental measurements over the same range of operating parameters. Correlation is good, leading to the conclusion that the calculated data are effective for design analysis of rotor-bearing systems using tilting-pad bearings.

This paper describes a thermohydrodynamic analysis of the 19 in. diameter tilting-pad journal bearing for steam turbine in comparison with experimental data. The three-dimensional thermohydrodynamic analysis is performed in both laminar and turbulent flow regimes considering mixing inlet temperature. The linearized turbulent flow model derived by Ng and Pan (1965) is applied. Generally good agreement is obtained for bearing surface temperatures, frictional losses, and minimum film thicknesses between the theoretical and experimental results.

Laminar And Turbulent Flow

The steady-state and dynamic characteristics of a full circular bearing and a centrally loaded, 100 deg, arc bearing are calculated for a range of eccentricity ratios to 0.95 and of mean Reynolds numbers to 13,300, and presented in design charts. These are compared with the measured performance of these bearings over the same ranges of the operating parameters. There is good correlation between the theoretical and test data, leading to the conclusion that the present turbulent lubrication analysis may be used to obtain general design data for self-acting bearings, operating in the superlaminar flow regime, to supplement that presently existing for laminar flow bearings.
