Abstract
This paper presents a theoretical study of the elastohydrostatic performance of an orifice-compensated multirecess journal bearing. The finite element method has been used to solve Reynolds equation governing the lubricant flow in the clearance space of a hydrostatic journal bearing and three dimensional elasticity equations governing the displacement field in the bearing shell. Results have been presented for a wide range of values of deformation coefficient ([Cbar]d). An example is also given to enhance understanding of the effects of bearing shell flexibility on performance characteristics.
