Abstract Transient load has a huge impact on the life and stability of water-lubricated bearings. In this paper work, CFD software is used to analyse the dynamic characteristic of water lubricated bearings under different transient loads of 500N, 1000N, 2000N and 3000N. The water film pressure contour distribution at different transient time was given. The time-varying relationships between the different transient loads with bearing forces, the journal displacement, the maximum value of water film pressure as well as the minimum value of water film thickness are obtained. The results show that with the increase of transient load, the effective bearing area of dynamic water pressure film decreases, and the maximum pressure increases. The bearing forces, the journal displacement, the maximum value of water film pressure as well as the minimum value of water film thickness will increase fast.

Thrust Pad

The affect of the thrust pad inclination and ratio of length to breadth (L/B) on the lubricity of a water-lubricated thrust bearing is studied in numerical method. The research results indicate that when the elastic deformation is considered, the distribution of both water film thickness and pressure presents to be paraboloid. With the increase of thrust pad inclination, both maximum water-film pressure and the friction coefficient increase, and the minimum water-film thickness decreases first and then increases; when the L/B increases in the range of 1~2, both maximum water-film pressure and the friction coefficient increase, but the minimum water-film thickness decreases.

Rubber Bearings

Abstract Water-lubricated rubber bearings are widely used in the propulsion shafting of military craft and ships. These bearings may wear down after a period of service, and consequently, their lubrication characteristics will change, affecting the operation of the shaft. Hydrodynamic lubrication characteristics of water-lubricated rubber bearings with partial wear at the bottom are studied by finite difference method. The steady-state characteristics of water-lubricated rubber bearings with wear and elastic deformation of rubber liner considered are solved with successive over-relaxation iteration method, and the dynamic characteristics are further calculated with finite perturbation method. The results show that water film thickness and distribution of water film pressure is significantly changed by wear. With the same eccentricity ratio, the maximum water film pressure, load capacity, attitude angle, and friction force are reduced by wear, but the friction coefficient is increased by wear. Under the same load, the minimum water film thickness and the maximum water film pressure are slightly affected by wear, the eccentricity ratio increases with the increase of wear, and the attitude angle and the friction coefficient decrease with the increase of wear. For large eccentricity ratios, the direct stiffness coefficients and direct damping coefficients are decreased by wear. The maximum allowable wear depth is approximately 1/6 of the bearing clearance.

The effects of ground slag with different specific surface area on the rheology of mortar at water-binder ratio of 0.25, 0.28 and 0.30 were investigated, and the combined effects of packing density and solid surface area on the rheology of mortar were evaluated in terms of the water film thickness. The results show that with the increasing of specific surface area of slag (220 m2/kg-784 m2/kg), plastic viscosity and yield stress decrease. The correlations of yield stress and plastic viscosity to the water film thickness are basically linear with high correlation R2 values. The action of the ground slag on the rheology of mortar can be characterized by water film thickness, and with the increasing of water film thickness the rheological parameters decrease.

The distribution of water in the diffuser of a wet gas compressor is not well understood. Measurements of water film thickness across the diffuser surface would improve the understanding of two-phase flow phenomena in wet gas compressors. Electromagnetic probes were designed in order to measure water film thickness in the diffuser of a SwRI-designed wet gas compressor. The probes consisted of two electrode foils plated on a thin insulating substrate, allowing them to be bonded in place without drilling through the diffuser. An AC signal was passed between the electrodes, and the voltage across a resistor in series with the electrodes was recorded. As the water level covering the electrodes increased, the recorded voltage increased. A method of calibrating the probes was developed and used prior to installation in the diffuser. Testing showed the probes to be effective at detecting the presence of water in the diffuser and indicating the general water level. Improvements in probe design, calibration, and installation are needed to provide more precise water film thickness data.
