Abstract
Based on the magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) thin-film lubrication theory, steady load capacity and dynamic characteristics of wide tapered-land slider bearings lubricated with an electrically conducting fluid by the application of an external magnetic field are presented. Compared with the non-conducting lubricant (NLC) tapered-land bearing by Lin et al. (2006), the MHD bearing provides higher values of load capacity and dynamic coefficients. Compared with the MHD inclined-plane bearing by Lin et al. (2009), the MHD tapered-land bearing how an increase in load capacity and dynamic coefficients as well as a reduction in the steady friction parameter.
