Abstract
PurposeThis paper aims to improve upon the performance of squeeze film between porous conical plates.Design/methodology/approachThe objectives are achieved by mathematically modeling a magnetic fluid based squeeze film between porous conical plates. The standard approach is to solve associated Reynolds' equation with appropriate boundary conditions. The scope of this paper is the industrial applications with regard to enhanced performance of the bearing system.FindingsDefinitely the performance of the bearing with the magnetic fluid lubricant is relatively better than the conventional lubricant. The findings indicate that the negative effect induced by the porosity can be neutralized by the positive effect caused by the magnetization parameter. Further, this paper suggests that there is scope for enhancing the performance of the bearing system by choosing a suitable combination of the magnetization parameter and semi‐vertical angle.Practical implicationsFrom the industry point of view this investigation will be certainly useful for improving the performance of the squeeze film between porous conical plates.Originality/valueThis paper presents the augmented performance of the squeeze film between porous conical plates and thereby extending even the life period of the machines.
