A Study on the Lift-off Characteristics of an Air-lubricated Bump Foil Journal Bearing
공기윤활 범프 저어널 베어링의 부상 특성에 관한 연구
Abstract
In this paper the effect of bump compliance, load, and the number of pad on the lift-off speed is studied. When the load is greater and bump compliance lower, the shaft is lifted off at higher rotating speed. And when the load is applied near the center of pad, lift-off speed is lower. When the number of pad increases, the lift-off speed is higher. The lift-off characteristics can be used to lengthen the life time of the coating and design the rotating machinery supported by bump bearings.
