Comparative Performance of a Non-recessed Hole-entry Hybrid/Hydrostatic Conical Journal Bearing Compensated with Capillary and Orifice Restrictors

Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2016, Vol 38, Issue 2

Abstract

This research paper deals with the theoretical study of comparison of capillary and orifice compensated non-recess hole-entry hydrostatic/ hybrid conical journal bearing. Modified Reynolds equation governing the flow of lubricant in the clearance space of conical journal and bearing has been solved using FEM, Newton-Raphson method and Gauss elimination method. Spherical coordinate system has been employed to obtain the results. The results have been computed for uniform distribution of holes in the circumferential direction with the range of restrictor design parameter C ̅_s2 = 0.02 - 0.1. The numerically simulated result shows, the use of orifice restrictor is to increase bearing stiffness, threshold speed and maximum pressure compared to capillary restrictor for applied radial load.
