Aerodynamic journal microbearings with microtribological phenomena significantly influence the operating stability of microfluidic devices. The modified Reynolds equations including different rarefaction models are derived and are solved by the partial derivative method and relaxation iteration algorithm. The effects of Knudsen number and bearing parameters on the static and dynamic characteristics of microbearings are investigated in detail. The results show that the rarefaction effect plays a crucial role in the ultra-thin gas film lubrication. The maximum film pressure of Fukui–Kaneko (FK) model is lowest and the result in Boltzmann model is largest in small Knudsen number regions. As the Knudsen number increases further, the curve of FK model is coincident with that of the Boltzmann model in the transition regime. The direct stiffness coefficients of Boltzmann model increase with the increase of eccentricity ratio and aspect ratio, whereas the effect of Knudsen number on the damping coefficients yields a relatively complicated trend.

The head frame is a key component which plays a supportive and accommodative role in the spindle system of CNC machine tool. Improving the static and dynamic characteristics has profound significance to the development of machine tool and product performance. The simplified finite element modal is established with ANSYS to carry out the static and modal analysis. The results showed that the maximum deformation of the head frame was 0.0066mm, the maximum stress was 3.94Mpa, the deformation of most region was no more than 0.0007mm, which all verified that the head frame had a good stiffness and deforming resistance; several improvement measures for dynamic performance were also proposed by analyzing the mode shapes, and the 1st order natural frequency increased 7.33% while the head frame mass only increased 1.58% applying the optimal measure, which improved the dynamic characteristics of the head frame effectively.

This paper presents a theoretical study of the performance of constant power operated swash plate pumps equipped with hydromechanical controllers incorporating either pivoted levers or two feedback springs. Mathematical models of these controllers are derived and used to simulate the static and dynamic characteristics of a small pump of 40 cc/rev geometric volume. Results show that the controller with the pivoted lever renders better static and dynamic characteristics compared to the controllers with feedback springs. Results also show that changing the power through varying the lever arm length is preferable than varying the valve spring initial compression, when the dynamic characteristics of the pumps with controllers of pivoted levers are considered. The effect of the valve spring initial compression on the static performance of a pump incorporating a controller with two feedback springs is also investigated.
