Magnetohydrodynamic lubrication flow between parallel rotating disks
W. F. Hughes,R. A. Elco +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the motion of an electrically conducting, incompressible, viscous fluid in the presence of a magnetic field is analyzed for flow between two parallel disks, one of which rotates at a constant angular velocity.

Recess Depth Optimization for Rotating, Annular, and Circular Recess Hydrostatic Thrust Bearings
TL;DR: In this paper, the minimum dissipation for annular and circular recess thrust bearings operating at a certain rotational speed was determined by finding the optimum film thickness in the recess, and it was observed that the secondary flow caused by the inertia term gives a large contribution to the dissipation.

Characteristics of multipad hydrostatic thrust bearings under rotation
T.Jayachandra Prabhu,N. Ganesan +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a theoretical study of the characteristics of a multipad plane hydrostatic thrust bearing was made taking into account the effect of rotational lubricant inertia, and design data for the load capacity, flow and stiffness and damping characteristics were obtained for practically useful radius and resistance ratios for capillary and orifice compensation.

Comparison of Perturbed Reynolds Equation and CFD Models for the Prediction of Dynamic Coefficients of Sliding Bearings
Troy A. Snyder,Minel J. Braun +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, an alternative method using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with a moving boundary is used to predict the dynamic coefficients of slider bearings and the results are compared with the more commonly employed perturbed Reynolds equation model.
