The Partial Derivative Method for Dynamic Stiffness and Damping Coefficients of Supercritical CO2 Foil Bearings

open access: yesLubricants, 2022
Supercritical CO2 foil bearings are promising bearing technology for supercritical CO2 high-speed turbomachinery. The partial derivative method including complete variable perturbation of the compressible turbulent lubrication Reynolds equation is ...

PyFrac: A planar 3D hydraulic fracture simulator

open access: yes, 2020
Fluid driven fractures propagate in the upper earth crust either naturally or in response to engineered fluid injections. The quantitative prediction of their evolution is critical in order to better understand their dynamics as well as to optimize their

An Approach to Calculate Leakage Flow, Stiffness and Damping of Annular Seals in Turbulent Flow Using Lubrication Theory, Part II: Results

open access: yesTribology Online, 2007
This paper is in continuation of its part I. It presents the rotordynamic behavior of a circular seal and multilobe seal for various L/D ratio, taper ratio and eccentricity ratio in the turbulent flow regime considering the effect of fluid inertia.

Towards active microfluidics: Interface turbulence in thin liquid films with floating molecular machines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Thin liquid films with floating active protein machines are considered. Cyclic mechanical motions within the machines, representing microscopic swimmers, lead to molecular propulsion forces applied to the air-liquid interface. We show that, when the rate

A new turbulent thermohydrodynamic performance analysis of tilting pad journal bearing based on a k-ε model and comparison with measurements

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2015
The oil film flow in large journal bearings usually transits from laminar flow to turbulent one with increase in shaft speed. This paper presents a new turbulent THL (thermo-hydrodynamic lubrication) model based on the low-Reynolds-number k-ε model to ...

Investigation of the Fluid-Solid Thermal Coupling for Rolling Bearing under Oil-Air Lubrication

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2015
An excellent oil-air lubrication system helps to improve rolling bearing's working conditions and thus extend its service life span. Flowing and heat dissipating characteristics of oil-air media inside bearing chamber are very complicated due to the ...
