Simulation of a Simplified Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using a Fully Coupled Two-Way Eulerian Thin Film/Discrete Phase Approach Part I: Film Behavior Near the Bearing
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Previous work at the Gas Turbine and Transmissions Research Center (G2TRC) has highlighted the need for an adequate computational model, which can appropriately model the oil shedding behavior from bearings. Oil can break ...
Scavenge Performance of an Optimized Shallow Sump at Various Flow Conditions
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Oil scavenge flow in aero-engine bearing chamber remains largely a challenging problem for many engine designers. Research campaign on scavenge flow has been conducted by G2TRC—Gas Turbine and Transmissions Research Centre ...
Simulation of a Simplified Aeroengine Bearing Chamber Using a Fully Coupled Two-Way Eulerian Thin Film/Discrete Phase Approach Part II: Droplet Behavior in the Chamber
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Within aeroengines, bearing chambers exhibit a highly complex two-phase environment as a result of the complex air/oil interactions. The desire to operate at both higher temperatures and shaft speeds requires a sufficient ...
How Do Interfacial Shear and Gravity Affect the Oil Film Characteristics Near an Aero-Engine Bearing?
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Recent demand for reducing carbon emission and for increasing engine efficiency has led aero-engine manufacturers to strive for a better oil flow system. Aero-engine bearing chambers that house the shaft-support bearings ...
