Numerical Modeling on the Compliance and Load Capacity of a Two-Row Aerostatic Journal Bearing with Longitudinal Microgrooves in the Inter-Row Zone

Aerostatic bearings are attractive, with minimal friction losses, high durability, and environmental friendliness. However, such designs have a number of disadvantages, including low load-bearing capacity and high compliance due to high air compressibility and limited injection pressure. The article...
