A model of magnetohydrodynamic partial slip laser texture bearing (slider and journal) is developed. The influence of laser bump texture and slip laser texture partial configuration on the magnetohydrodynamic performance analysis of bearing is presented. An electrically conducting fluid is confined to bearing surfaces under uniform magnetic field perpendicular to slider bearing and inclined to the line of maximum film thickness to journal bearing. A one-dimensional analysis based on the narrow groove theory is considered to evaluate the nondimensional pressure distribution in bearing. Results of the nondimensional load capacity and coefficient of friction of magnetohydrodynamic partial laser bump texture and partial slip laser texture bearing configurations are analyzed. Partial slip configuration under MHD lubrication without laser bump texture brings in the performance improvement.

A theoretical analysis is made of a slider bearing using an electrically conducting lubricant in the presence of a nonuniform magnetic field applied perpendicularly to the bearing surfaces. In the differential equations inertia terms are retained and the solution is obtained numerically for low Hartmann numbers. The results indicate that the contribution of inertia terms decreases with the increase of Hartmann number and that the nonuniform magnetic field gives higher load capacity than the comparable uniform magnetic field.

In this paper, pressure and shear stress are derived under steady state using one-dimensional analysis of the single-grooved slider bearing and journal bearing with partial slip on the stationary surface. The Reynolds boundary conditions are used in the analysis of journal bearing to predict the extent of the full film region. In the cases of partial slip slider and journal bearing, the pressure distribution is higher compared with the conventional bearing with no slip. In the case of partial slip on both slider and journal bearing surfaces, the single-groove, immediately followed by the partial slip region, results in the increase in pressure distribution. The results also show that in comparison to the conventional bearing with no slip, in the cases of partial slip slider and journal bearing, the shear stress increases before the region of slip/no slip interface, while the shear stress decreases in the region of no slip. In the case of the partial slip region on bearing surfaces, the shear stress distribution is lower in the region immediately after the groove. Significant pressure distribution is obtained due to the influence of partial slip on the slider bearing with uniform film thickness and the concentric journal bearing. The maximum pressure occurs at the end of the region of groove, immediately followed by the region of the partial slip. It is found that the pressure distribution of the slider and journal bearing with partial slip surface are not influenced with the further increase in the nondimensional slip coefficient (A) from 10 to 100.

The linear spin-up of a homogeneous electrically conducting fluid confined between infinite flat insulating plates is analyzed for the case in which a uniform magnetic field is applied normal to the boundaries. As in part 1 (Benton & Loper 1969), complete hydromagnetic interaction is embraced even within linearized equations. Approximate inversion of the exact Laplace transform solution reveals the presence of several flow structures: two thin Ekman–Hartmann boundary layers (one on each plate), which are quasi-steady on the time scale of spin-up, two thicker continuously growing magnetic diffusion regions, and an essentially inviscid, current-free core, which may or may not be present on the spin-up time scale, depending upon the growth rate of the magnetic diffusion regions. When a current-free core exists, it is found to spin-up at the same rate as the fluid within magnetic diffusion regions, although different physical mechanisms are at play. As a result, a single hydromagnetic spin-up time is derived, independently of the thickness of magnetic diffusion regions; this time is shorter than in the non-magnetic problem.

The flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid on a continuous moving flat plate in presence of uniform transverse magnetic field, is studied. The flat plate which is continuously moving in its own plane with a constant speed is considered to be isothermally heated. Assuming the fluid viscosity as an inverse linear function of temperature, the nature of fluid velocity and temperature in presence of uniform magnetic field are shown for changing viscosity parameter at different layers of the medium. Numerical solutions are obtained by using Runge-Kutta and Shooting method. The coefficient of skin friction and the rate of heat transfer are calculated at different viscosity parameter and Prandt l number. .

An analysis is presented of the slider bearing using an electrically conducting lubricant, such as a liquid metal, in the presence of a magnetic field. The solution permits the calculation of the load-carrying capacity of the bearing. A comparison is made with the classical slider bearing solution. It is shown that the load capacity of the bearing depends on the electromagnetic boundary conditions entering through the conductivity of the bearing surfaces. Numerical data are presented for nonconducting surfaces with the emphasis on a comparison between the classical bearing and the magnetohydrodynamic bearing characteristics. It is shown that a significant increase in load capacity is possible with liquid metal lubricants in the presence of a magnetic field.

A theoretical analysis of an infinite full journal bearing is presented for the case of an electrically conducting fluid in the presence of a radial magnetic field. The analysis is based on general external loading conditions. The pressure distribution is obtained under the Reynolds’ boundary conditions in which the cavitation occurrence in the low-pressure region is taken into account. The characteristics of the magnetohydrodynamic journal bearing, namely, load-carrying capacity, altitude angle, and journal driving torque are determined. Furthermore the influence of the wall properties on the load capacity is clearly shown.
