For decades, maximum power coefficient limit, known as the Betz limit, has been accepted as a theoretical optimum value for wind turbine power extraction; nevertheless, some reports, exceeding this limit, have already been published. To explain this phenomenon and show a different point of view, a novel theoretical and ideal analysis based on flow ...

Permeability and dynamic elastic moduli of controlled porosity ultra-precision aerostatic structures [PDF]
Porous ceramic aerostatic bearings enable precise and smooth motion and improved stiffness compared with widely used orifice restrictor bearings. However, the processing techniques so far used are too complex or rely in lowering the sintering temperature

On the Design of a Diaphragm Valve for Aerostatic Bearings [PDF]
Because of their almost zero friction, cleanness and long life, aerostatic bearings are commonly used in many applications where high precision of positioning is required, e.g. machine tools, measuring machines, semiconductor manufacturing and power board testing. However, air bearings suffer from low relative stiffness and poor damping.

Experimental Identification of an Aerostatic Thrust Bearing [PDF]
Conventional approaches to design aerostatic bearings are based on their static characteristics. However, dynamic predictions are fundamental in order to obtain very precise positioning since air bearings are frequently subjected to dynamic load variations.

FEEDING SYSTEM OF AEROSTATIC BEARINGS WITH POROUS MEDIA
In porous resistances, Darcy’s law provides a good approximation of mass flow rate when the differences between upstream and downstream pressures are sufficiently small. In this range, the mass flow rates are proportional to the porous resistance’s permeability.

Aerostatic bearings are attractive, with minimal friction losses, high durability, and environmental friendliness. However, such designs have a number of disadvantages, including low load-bearing capacity and high compliance due to high air ...
