Abstract
The article discusses ways to solve the problem of wear of the rotor bearings of turbine units at the moments of start–up and shutdown. The concept of a new type of elastic–damping combined sliding bearings, which combines the use of ferromagnetic fluids in the design of multi–blade bearings, is proposed. On the basis of this, a design of a petal bearing with an electromagnetic effect on elastic elements and a ferromagnetic lubricant has been proposed. The properties and features of the use of ferromagnetic fluids in precision engineering as a lubricant are described. A mathematical model of an electromagnetic petal bearing with a ferromagnetic fluid is proposed on the basis of the Reynolds equation from the course of magnetohydrodynamics, Maxwell's equations for a magnetic field, a system of equations in displacements based on the theory of cylindrical shells. An algorithm for the operation of the rotor support during start–up, shutdown, as well as when the power supply of the electromagnets is turned off.
