Abstract This paper presents the effect of eccentricity and surface roughness on the probabilistic performance of two axial groove hydrodynamic journal bearing. In general, it is difficult to quantify experimentally the variabilities involved in dynamic responses of the hydrodynamic bearing due to the randomness involved in surface asperity and eccentricity ratio. The deterministic models available for the analysis of the bearings are not capable to include such uncertainties. These uncertainties arise from the manufacturing imperfections, misalignment of the bearing, frictional wear, uncertain operating condition, model inaccuracy. To simulate such variabilities, Monte Carlo simulation (MCS) is carried out. Stochastic steady-state and dynamic coefficients are obtained by solving the Reynolds equation using the surrogate-based finite difference method. Sensitivity analysis of the performance parameters with respect to stochastic input parameters is portrayed. The moving least square (MLS) model is constructed as the surrogate to increase the computational efficiency. The significant influences of stochastic input parameters such as surface roughness and eccentricity ratio are observed on the random hydrodynamic performance of two axial groove journal bearing.

Output Behavior

The precise prediction of a rotor against instability is needed for avoiding the degradation or failure of the system’s performance due to the parametric variabilities of a bearing system. In general, the design of the journal bearing is framed based on the deterministic theoretical analysis. To map the precise prediction of hydrodynamic performance, it is needed to include the uncertain effect of input parameters on the output behavior of the journal bearing. This paper presents the uncertain hydrodynamic analysis of a two-axial-groove journal bearing including randomness in bearing oil viscosity and supply pressure. To simulate the uncertainty in the input parameters, the Monte Carlo simulation is carried out. A support vector machine is employed as a metamodel to increase the computational efficiency. Both individual and compound effects of uncertainties in the input parameters are studied to quantify their effect on the steady-state and dynamic characteristics of the bearing.

Slip modification of the lubricated bearing such hydrophobic coating has proven to improve the hydrodynamic performance. The present paper investigates the effect of partial slip on the journal bearing performance using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach. The eccentricity ratio and the placement of slip area are of particular interest. It was shown that the partial slip placement on the convergent region of the bearing generally improves the hydrodynamic performance lubrication by increasing load support. It was also found that introducing partial slip on the divergent area decreases the lubrication performance of journal bearing.

Modification of the lubricated surface by combining the boundary slip and the texturing has proven to enhance the hydrodynamic performance of bearing. The present work explores the combined effect of boundary slip and texturing varying slip layout on the performance of journal bearing using computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach. The effect of eccentricity ratio is also of particular interest. The results show that when the boundary slip is located on all edges of textured surface, more enhanced load support by 4% is obtained in comparison with classical (no-slip) textured one. However, in general the results also indicate that introducing the boundary slip with different layouts on partially textured surface does not much affect the hydrodynamic pressure as well as the load support; therefore, the slip-textured bearing shows similar and closer trend to the no-slip textured one. In addition, it is also found that the effect of eccentricity ratio is more influential than the boundary slip in terms of load support.

Journal Misalignment

Journal misalignment exists generally in journal bearings. When severe journal misalignment takes place, the minimum film thickness of journal bearings reduces greatly. In this condition, the surface roughness, the oil viscosity-pressure relationship (VPR), and the thermal effect have obvious effects on hydrodynamic lubrication performance of misaligned bearings. In this paper, the oil film pressure, oil film temperature, load-carrying capacity, end leakage flow rate, frictional coefficient, and misalignment moment of a journal bearing with different angles of journal misalignment and surface roughness, and considering oil VPR and thermal effect, were calculated based on the generalized Reynolds equation, energy equation, and solid heat conduction equation. The results show that the oil VPR and surface roughness have a significant effect on the lubrication of misaligned journal bearings under large eccentricity ratio. The thermal effect will affect obviously the lubrication of misaligned journal bearings when eccentricity ratio and angle of journal misalignment are all large. In the present design, the size of the journal bearing is compact more and more, and the eccentricity ratio and angle of journal misalignment are usually large in operating conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to take the effects of journal misalignment, surface roughness, oil VPR, and thermal effect into account in the design and analyses of journal bearings.

Effect Of Surface

Surface texturing of the lubricated bearing has proven to improve the hydrodynamic performance. The present paper analyzed the effect of surface texturing on the covergent journal bearing with computational fluid dynamic (CFD) approach. The eccentricity ratio, the ratio of textured depth and surface area are the main parameter research. It was shown that for the eccentricity ratio of 0.2, the surface texturing improves the hydrodynamic performance lubrication by increasing the load support. On the otherwise, for the eccentricity ratio of 0.8, the surface texturing does not improve the lubrication performance, even under certain condition, it decreases the lubrication performance of journal bearing.
