Preliminary experimental study on static loading characteristics of multi-decked protuberant foil thrust bearing

In the fluid film lubrication of high speed turbomachinery, bearing performance plays a significant role in the dynamics of the rotor-bearing system. In this paper, a novel foil thrust bearing using multi-decked protuberant foils as supporting structure is developed and tested. Experimental bearing...
