Cavitation formation and modelling for fluid film bearings: A review
M. J. Braun,W M Hannon +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors summarize advances in analytical and numerical modeling, draw attention to the thermodynamic aspects of cavitation, and reflect on physical or experimental observations while reflecting on physical and experimental observations.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Average Flow Model of the Reynolds Roughness Including a Mass-Flow Preserving Cavitation Model
TL;DR: An average Reynolds equation for predicting the effects of deterministic periodic roughness, taking Jakobsson, Floberg, and Olsson mass flow preserving cavitation model into account, is introduced based upon the double scale analysis approach as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Geometry on Hydrodynamic Film Thickness
TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of geometry on the isothermal hydrodynamic film separating two rigid solids was investigated and the minimum film thickness was derived for fully flooded conjunctions by using the Reynolds boundary conditions.
