Parametric Studies on Performance of Oil-Free Thrust Foil Bearings at Lower Speeds

The present work involves an experimental analysis on gas-lubricated foil thrust bearing (FTB) that has major applications in food processing units at lower operating speeds. Parametric studies include testing thrust foil bearings with various foil configurations in terms of foil thickness, foil geo...
