Abstract: An analytical solution for the full thermal field in a journal bearing under isoviscous conditions is presented. The results are for adiabatic bearing surfaces and for isothermal bearing surfaces, ...

Abstract: An analytical solution to the energy equation is provided for oscillating squeeze film flow, such as that which occurs in squeeze film damper bearings. Assumptions are: (a) the usual lubrication ...

Abstract: An analytical solution to the energy equation is presented for the one-dimensional step thrust bearing. Constant lubricant properties are assumed which decouples the momentum and energy equations ...

Abstract: An experimental study was made of the heat transfer in a component of a low temperature thermal energy storage system using latent heat of fusion of a phase change material (PCM). Measurements ...
