A theoretical analysis of the steady-state and dynamic characteristics of multi-recess hybrid oil journal bearings is presented. A perturbation theory for small vibrations is used to solve an incompressible, finite journal bearing with a time-dependent term. Load capacity, attitude angle, friction parameter, stiffness and damping coefficients are evaluated for a capillary-compensated bearing.

Gas Supply

A rigid vertical shaft was operated with known amounts of unbalance at speeds up to 30,000 rpm and gas supply pressure ratios to 4.8. From measured amplitude and phase angle data, dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients of the bearings were determined. The measured stiffness was proportional to the supply pressure, while damping was little affected by supply pressure. Damping dropped rapidly as the fractional frequency whirl threshold was approached. A small eccentricity analysis overpredicted the stiffness by 4 to 55 percent. Predicted damping was close to measured at low speeds but higher at high speeds.

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.

Stiffness And Damping

Stiffness and damping of hydrostatic guideways are calculated by small perturbation method based on Reynolds equation in dynamic regime. The hydrostatic guideway is considered as a system which consists of the mass, the spring and the damper. The effects of some main parameters on stiffness, damping and damping ratio are analyzed which include the supply pressure, the film thickness, the pad dimension, the pressure ratio, the lubricating oil volume and the lubricating oil viscosity. The relationships between the settling time of the hydrostatic guideways and these parameters are investigated under a step load. It is shown that the slide block returns to equilibrium without overshooting under a step load, and the amplitude of the block vibration has not a maximum value under a cyclic load, due to the large damping effect( ξ>1). In addition, the settling time can be shorten with the increase of the supply pressure, the film thickness and the lubricating oil volume, and also with the decrease of the pressure ratio and the lubricating oil viscosity. The settling time get the shortest value when recess parameter( α) is 0.55.

Typical nondimensional performance curves are found and the influences of seven governing parameters are discussed.

Energy Equations

A rigorous thermohydrodynamic (THD) analysis of finite journal bearings has been developed. THD analysis not only allows a more accurate prediction of the bearing performance characteristics, but it also provides the temperature distribution in the bearing. It involves the simultaneous solution of the Reynolds and energy equations and can handle a wide variety of flow situations, including reverse flow, recirculating flow, and cavitation. The overall numerical scheme is based on a fully conservative finite-volume formulation. The calculated results are compared with the published literature. The qualitative agreement is good. Sample calculations for a typical automotive bearing show that the oil supply pressure and supply configuration significantly affect the bearing performance.
