Abstract:Under high-temperature conditions, heat evacuation of foil bearing has a significant impact on bearing performance, including loading performance and reliability. During bearing operation, viscous dissipative heat in the lubricant gas film is the main source of heat generation. For foil bearings, enhancing the heat evacuation efficiency is essential to extend the bearing service life in high-temperature environments. For heat evacuation, foil-side cooling is a very effective method. For more in-depth analysis … Show more
