Numerical investigation of static characteristic of a tilting-pad journal bearing using shear stress transport model and air backflow

Numerical simulations are important in bearing designs and should be in accordance with real working conditions. Two details are analyzed for the numerical simulations with a three-dimensional model of a large tilting-pad journal bearing included. The first detail is the flow model of the journal be...
