Abstract: The present study is focused on accurate prediction of the Morton effect problem including journal asymmetric heating and the corresponding long period amplitude oscillations using a nonlinear time transient rotordynamic ...

Abstract: This paper presents simulation results corresponding with the theoretical Morton effect model explained in Part I, where the 3D finite element models of bearing, shaft, and fluid film are adopted. In addition, it explains ...

Abstract: This paper is focused on a new modeling method of threedimensional (3D) thermoelastohydrodynamic (TEHD) cylindrical pivot tiltingpad journal bearing (TPJB). Varying viscosity Reynolds equation and 3D energy equation are ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new analysis method for a thermoelastohydrodynamic (TEHD) tilting pad journal bearing (TPJB) system to reach a static equilibrium condition adopting nonlinear transient dynamic solver, whereas earlier ...

Abstract: The Morton effect (ME) is characterized by an asymmetric journal temperature distribution, slowly varying thermal bow and intolerable synchronous vibration levels. The conventional mass imbalance model is replaced by a ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new approach for modeling flexure-pivot journal bearings (FPJB) employing a three-dimensional (3D) elasto-hydro-dynamic (EHD) lubrication model. The finite element (FE) method is adopted for an analysis ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the journal asymmetric temperature-induced thermal bow vibration of a rotor, as supported by a flexure pivot journal bearing (FPJB). Thermal bow-induced vibration, known as the Morton effect (ME), ...
