Abstract
In this paper, the characteristics of squeeze film two-dimensional porous journal bearings with micropolar lubricant have been analysed. The generalised form of Darcy’s law governing the flow of micropolar fluid in a porous channel has been derived. The generalised Reynold’s equation for a micropolar fluid lubricated squeeze film porous journal bearing is also obtained. It is shown that the load capacity and the squeezing time are higher with a micropolar fluid than with a Newtonian fluid.
