Abstract
A flat axial bearing with pressurized gas supply through an annular flow valve made from anisotropic porous material is considered. The differential equation for the pressure in the lubricant layer adjacent to the porous wall is numerically solved using the Runge-Kutta method, with two boundary conditions taken into account. One of these, which is integral, has remained out of sight in the porous support analysis until recently. An algorithm for calculating the lifting force and rigidity of support as well as mass rate of gas flow through this support is presented. The optimization of support is performed, and conclusions are drawn as to its influence on different factors.
