The Fluid-Structure-Thermal Performance Analysis of Gas Foil Thrust Bearing by Using Computational Fluid Dynamics

This paper presents a detailed three-dimensional (3D) thermo-elastic-hydrodynamic (TEHD) multi-physics model of the bump-type gas foil thrust bearing based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD). In this model, the moving mesh technology is applied in the fluid flow domain, and the new boundary condi...
