Abstract
The Hybrid (hydrodynamic/ hydrostatic) journal bearing system has found wide spread application in high speed rotating machines such as compressors, gas turbines, steam turbines, etc. The present studies include solution of Reynolds equation for hydrodynamic journal bearing with infinitely long approximation (ILA), infinitely short bearing approximation (ISA) and finite journal bearing approximation. Further Finite Journal bearing approximation considers two dimensional solution of Reynolds equation with natural boundary condition, which cannot be solved by analytical method. So, here the solutions for finite journal bearing have been done with finite difference method (a MATLAB® code is prepared for finite difference method) to get bearing performance parameters such as load capacity, Sommerfeld no., etc.
