Abstract: This paper describes a semianalytical method for solving the thermohydrodynamic problem in journal bearings. It is assumed that the shaft is isothermal and the bearing heat flow is in the ...

Abstract: An analysis is conducted and solutions are provided for the effect of centrifugal forces on hydrostatic misaligned thrust bearings. The results show that centrifugal forces reduce considerably ...

Abstract: This paper presents an analysis of the performance characteristics for a misaligned full journal bearing operating in turbulent regime. The modified Reynolds equation for turbulent flow is solved ...

Abstract: The paper presents an adiabatic analysis of misaligned journal bearings. The misalignment is allowed to vary in magnitude as well as in direction with respect to the bearing boundaries. Results ...

Abstract: Performance characteristics for a complete journal bearing of finite axial length are obtained analytically using a new set of boundary conditions. The generalized Reynolds equation is transformed, ...
