Abstract: Tilting pad journal bearings (TPJB) using multiple orifice hybrid lubrication are analyzed applying a thermohydrodynamic (THD) theory. Adiabatic boundary conditions are adopted, and a two-dimensional ...

Abstract: This work focuses on the theoretical and experimental behavior of rigid rotors controlled by tilting-pad journal bearings with active oil injection. Initially the mathematical model of the active ...

Abstract: This paper gives a theoretical treatment of the problem of journal bearings modeling connected to electronic oil injection into the bearing gap. The feasibility of influencing the static behavior ...

Abstract: The highest vibration levels in large pump turbines are, in general, originated in the rotor stator interaction (RSI). This vibration has specific characteristics that can be clearly observed ...
