Thermo-elasto-hydrodynamic analysis of bump-type air foil thrust bearings considering misalignment

In this study, a multi-pad bump-type foil thrust bearing with a taper-land height profile is investigated. A detailed thermo-elastohydrodynamic (TEHD) finite element (FE) model is used comprising all bearing pads instead of only a single pad. Although the single-pad reduction approach is commonly ap...
