Ferrohydrodynamic thrust bearings
International Journal of Engineering Science, 1979Abstract This paper treats thrust bearings in which the lubricant is a ferroliquid confined by an applied magnetic field to the gap between two plates, one fixed and one mounted on a rotating shaft carrying an axial load. For plates with plane, parallel surfaces, the lubricant extends beyond the edges of the plates and axially along their sides ...

The Tapered-Land Thrust Bearing
Journal of Applied Mechanics, 1956Abstract Neglecting side leakage the maximum load capacity which can be carried per unit width is obtained when there is a stepped convergence to the oil film. However, when side leakage is considered the stepped bearing is only slightly better than the tilting-pad bearing, this being due to the fact that the maximum oil pressure occurs ...

The magnetohydrodynamic thrust bearing
Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1967The magnetohydrodynamic lubrication flow in a step-type thrust bearing has been investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The experimental configuration consisted of nine identical segments arranged on a circular plate. Flow was induced by rotating the upper plate. Pressures, voltages and torques were recorded.

An investigation on thrust bearing tilting pads
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology, 1998The present work regards the first stage of a research activity aimed at the understanding of the phenomena involved in the working of thrust bearing tilting pads. Three pads of the same shape and dimensions with different pivot positions have been studied. An experimental investigation is carried out on the pads using a particularly versatile test rig.

Turbulence in a Tilting-Pad Thrust Bearing
Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1955Abstract Using water as a lubricant, experiments were made with a tilting-pad thrust bearing. It was found that the friction torque increased abnormally when the rubbing speed exceeded what appeared to be a critical value. This abnormal torque indicated the possible effect of turbulence in the hydrodynamic film between the runner and ...
