The 8-lobe journal bearings have found application in the bearing systems of spindles of grinding machines. The design of bearings and the large number of lobes and oil grooves assures good cooling conditions of bearing. These bearings can be manufactured as the bearings with cylindrical, non-continuous operating surfaces separated by six lubricating grooves, bearings with the pericycloidal shape of the bearing bore, and as offset journal bearing. This paper presents the results of the computation of static characteristics of an offset 8-lobe journal bearing operating under the conditions of an aligned axis of journal and bush, adiabatic oil film, and at the static equilibrium position of journal. Different values of bearing length to diameter ratio, relative clearance, and lobe relative clearance were assumed. Reynolds' energy and viscosity equations were solved by means of an iterative procedure. Adiabatic oil film, laminar flow in the bearing gap, and aligned orientation of journal in the bearing were considered.

This paper proposes an improved lumped parameter method for calculating the static characteristics of multi-recess hydrostatic journal bearings. The improved lumped parameter method can estimate the total pressure distribution in the circumferential direction by introducing control volume in the middle of each inter-recess land, and utilizing the flow continuity equations for each recess and each control volume with the assumption that the pressure distributions are parabolic on the inter-recess land. Then the recess pressure and the fluid film force can be calculated. The calculation accuracy of the improved lumped parameter method and the traditional lumped parameter method is comparatively discussed under different eccentricity ratios and wrap angles of the recess. The results show that the improved lumped parameter method has higher calculation accuracy and wider application range.
