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.

Solutions for Increasing the Bearing Capacity of Thrust Bearings
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014Design faults, imperfect manufacturing processes, change of technological operating modes of the turbocompressors in gas, petroleum, chemical and petrochemical industry cause axial rotor shifts. Therefore, the task of manufacturing the high-efficient and reliable thrust bearings is important nowadays along with effective rotor balancing, methods of ...

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 ...

AbstractThe oil gap profile in a hydrodynamic thrust bearing exerts a great influence on the bearing properties, and hence the optimisation of the oil gap profile is one method for improving the bearing properties. In the present work, the properties of two hydrodynamic thrust bearings have been experimentally compared under realistic load/ speed ...
