Abstract
Abstract
In this study, the influence of inlet pocket size on the static performance of non-Newtonian lubricated hole-entry hybrid journal bearings is theoretically analyzed. The oil film of the bearing is discretized into a nonuniform mesh containing the geometric characteristics of the oil inlet pocket, and the inlet pocket is treated as a micro-oil recess. The Reynolds equation is solved by the finite element method based on Galerkin's techniques, and a new solution strategy to solve the recess/pocket pressure is proposed. The power-law model is used to introduce the non-Newtonian effect. The results show that the static performance characteristics of this type of bearing are greatly affected by the pocket size at both zero speed and high speed.
