Steady State Performance Characteristics of a Single Pad Externally Adjustable Fluid Film Bearing

The steady state performance characteristics of centrally loaded 60 degree single pad externally adjustable partial arc bearing is studied theoretically. Principal feature of the bearing is the facility to control its radial clearance and circumferential film thickness gradient, during operation. Th...
