Abstract
The Reynolds equation is derived by using the continuity equation, Navier–Stokes equation and slip length equation within cavitation region. A finite difference method are used to obtain the static and dynamic parameters of journal bearing. A comparison with the available experimental results reveals that the load capacity is well predicted by the present model. The results also show that slip effects in the cavitation region have an influence on the oil film pressure, the load capacity, the dynamic characteristics coefficients and the stability of journal bearing. The good behavior of the proposed algorithm is further illustrated in one example of a dynamically loaded journal bearing, and evolution with time of the journal center is well obtained.
期刊介绍:
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
