Abstract
The paper considers vibration response of spinning shafts supported by flexible tilt pad journal bearings, to large mass imbalance (blade loss). A time transient study of the tilt pad journal bearing with thermal effects and without pad deformations, and with pad deformations and without thermal effects, is performed. Influence of the inclusion of thermal effects on the journal center’s orbit, the minimum film thickness, and the maximum film temperature is evaluated, and also the influence of pad deformations due to the fluid film forces on the journal center’s orbit and the minimum film thickness is studied. Inclusion of thermal effects had little effect on the orbit, while the inclusion of pad deformations had considerable effect on the journal orbit and the minimum film thickness. Three cases are studied in this paper; static load without imbalance, static load with low imbalance, and static load with high imbalance.
