Abstract

The design of liquid feed journal bearings is discussed and is illustrated by design examples. Recessed and non-recessed bearings are compared, showing that slot entry bearings offer greatest load capacity up to 0.5 eccentricity ratio although flow-rates are increased to achieve minimum power dissipation. Tolerancing procedures for both recessed and non-recessed configurations are presented which enable bearings to be designed for economic manufacture combined with low total power dissipation, high load capacity and high stiffness. The effects of temperature variations and manufacturing variations on bearing performance are discussed and recommendations are presented to minimize the resulting errors of performance.
