description In order to improve the load-bearing performance of converter trunnion bearing, this paper proposes magnetic-hydraulic bearing which is a new coupled support technology that combines electromagnetic support and hydrostatic support. It can be realized the active control of electromagnetic and hydraulic pressure, and is conducive to extending the bearing replacement period. Based on the magnetic-hydraulic coupling, a mathematical model of the initial state of the radial support system is established, the calculation formula of bearing capacity of radial magnetic fluid bearing is deduced, and Matlab software is used to analyze the variation trend of bearing capacity and stiffness with rotor displacement. The optimization of structural parameters was carried out according to analysis of bearing characteristics, and it was concluded that the bearing performance was the best when the diameter of the bearing cavity was 10 mm, and the bearing capacity increased significantly when the thickness of the oil film was 70 μm. It provides a theoretical basis for the innovative design of converter trunnion support system.
