Abstract
The paper presents the results of numerical simulations (CFD) of hydrodynamic thrust slide bearings lubricated with magnetorheological (MR) fluid. The analyses were carried out to evaluate the influence of the rheological properties of the lubricant, as well as the geometry of the bearing's thrust pad surface. Bearing load conditions were considered on the key functional features of the system, i.e. axial force and torque. The paper presents a comparative analysis of various geometries of thrust bearings and points out possible functional features of hydrodynamic thrust bearings lubricated with fluids with controlled rheological properties.
