Abstract

The analysis presented in this paper explores the effect of air inertia on the squeeze film air contact operation and assesses the contribution of air inertia to the mechanism of squeeze film formation. Derivation of the Reynolds equation containing inertia term for squeeze film air contact is outlined. An average inertia concept is used in dealing with inertia force across the squeeze film thickness. Numerical iteration is used in solving for the non-linear inertia term in the modified Reynolds equation. Results are compared with the performance of the squeeze film air contact without inertia.
