A Design for High-Speed Journal Bearings with Reduced Pad Size and Improved Efficiency

A Design for High-Speed Journal Bearings with Reduced Pad Size and Improved Efficiency

Improving efficiency is a general task in the design process of high-speed journal bearings. A specific fixed-pad bearing geometry featuring reduced pad length and additional design measures with the intention of reducing frictional power loss is investigated, experimentally and theoretically, for a...
