Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explore the limiting stiffness coefficients of a foil journal bearing with the texture bump profile of top foil. The limiting stiffness coefficients are evaluated based on simplified compressible Reynolds equation for large bearing numbers with high speeds of foil journal bearing. A limiting pressure gradient solution for a texture bump of top foil bearing is analyzed. The analytical model accounts for the top foil texture bump profile and bottom foil bump compliance. Results of linearized nondimensional stiffness coefficients obtained using infinitesimal perturbation method are compared for various top foil texture bump profiles. The influence of top foil texture bump extent and height on the limiting stiffness coefficients of a foil journal bearing are investigated.
