Abstract
ABSTRACTWith an assumption that the profile of the velocity is not affected by the inertia force, a numerical model based on an extended Reynolds equation, which takes the full inertia effect and turbulence into account, is established. A finite deference method is used to solve the equation and the numerical results are validated with numerical and experimental results. A simplified expression is derived theoretically and modified by the numerical results of the established model. Finally, a study of a large water-lubricated tilting pad thrust bearing is presented. The analytical results and numerical results agree well. A quantitative analysis of inertia effects on load capacity is made in this article.
