In swash plate type axial piston hydraulic pump and motor, the piston shoe is periodically pressurized with square function shape by supply pressure load as rotation of cylinder barrel. Therefore the recess pressure on bottom part of piston shoe is suddenly increase through orifice in the piston shoe. In this study, we simulated that the frequency response of the recess pressure against with change of supply pressure with analysis tool. Also, we evaluate the dynamic response characteristics of overbalanced hydrostatic bearing with change of the orifice diameter.

In this paper, an angular self-sensing algorithm is proposed and implemented to a Lorentz force type integrated motor-bearing system. It is based on the principle that the flux linkages of stator windings, calculated from the voltage and torque control current, are the functions of the rotor angle. The tracking angular position error is proven to vanish using the Lyapunov stability method, and the experimental results show that the initial error decays within about 5 seconds. It is found that the resolution of the algorithm remains about 1º over the speed range of 100 to 1000 rpm.

This paper is presented for the performance of the Fluid Dynamic Bearing(FDB) by the groove design and the tooling condition. Recently, spindle motors which require smaller size, lower sound noise, lower vibration, and higher speed of the rotation have been placed in high value-added products including Digital Lightening Processors(DLP), Hard Disk Drives(HDD), and ODDs. The spindle motors using the sintered porous metal bearing have higher vibration and acoustic noise by dry contact and large tolerance of the bearing parts. The Fluid Dynamic Bearing (FDB) with grooves is appropriate for spindle motors adequate in regards to mechanical vibration and acoustic noise. The paper shows the performance comparisons of between sintered porous metal bearing and FDB, and each FDBs according to the tooling deviations of grooves by the Finite Element Analysis(FEA) of the mechanical field. This paper shows the methods to make the grooves, the groove's depth, and the prototype of the motor with the fluid dynamic bearing. The performance characteristics of the grooves with the FDB are verified by the experimental results.

In the case of hydraulic piston motor, hydrostatic bearing is designed to be adapted the hydrostatic bearing for the relative lubrication in the structural design. It's available to make it highly efficient and that's why it's widely used. The thing which largely influence the high pressure, the high efficiency, and the life is the hydrostatic bearing between a shoe and a swash plate. In this study, with the most general "hydrostatic bearing shoe" that has one recess as the subject of this research, I designed and made the 4 kind of piston shoe that have different orifice diameter each other, and studied the features of the hydrostatic bearing by observing the change of the leakage flow rate, the torque and the volumetric efficiency through experiments on the changes of the pressure & the speed of the revolution. As a result, the bigger diameter of the orifice, the less torque. And with an increase of the orifice diameter under the high pressure, the leakage flow rate decreased remarkably. Also it was observed the leakage flow rate increased linearly according to the increase of the supply pressure.

The minimum oil film thickness(MOFT) in the connecting-rod bearing of a 1.5 liter, L-4, gasoline engine is measured up to 5500 rpm and calculated to study the dynamically loaded engine bearing. Short bearing approximation and Mobility method are used for theoretical analysis of oil film characteristics. And cylinder pressure, crank-pin surface temperature and bearing temperature are measured as the input data of theoretical analysis. The MOFT are measured by the total capacitance method(TCM). To improve the reliability of the test results, a reasonable determination method of bearing clearance is introduced and used, and the effects of cavitation and aeration on the test results are neglected. The crankshaft is grounded by means of a slip ring. A scissor type linkage system was developed to measure the MOFT and bearing temperature. The effects of engine speed, load and oil viscosity on the measured and calculated minimum oil film thicknesses are investigated at 1500 to 5500 rpm. From the comparison between the measured and calculated MOFT, it is found that a qualitative similarity exists between them, but in all cases, the measured MOFT are smaller than those calculated.

The important problem in the high speed spindles is to reduce and minimize the thermal effect by the motor and ball bearings. Thermal characteristics according to the bearing preload and hollow shaft cooling are studied for the test spindle with the oil mist lubrication and high frequency motor. Bearings and motor e main heat generation, and heat generation by ball bearings as a function of load, viscosity and gyroscopic moment effect are considered. Temperature distribution and thermal displacement according to the speed of spindle are measured by thermocouple and gap sensor. The results show that the fitting preload and hollow haft cooling are very effective to minimize the thermal effect by the motor and ball bearings.

This paper presents the new structure of a spindle motor for hard disk drive (HDD). It can produce axial force as well as torque without a pulling plate or a pulling magnet required for the normal operation of a hydrodynamic bearing in rotating-shaft structure. The proposed models have different air gap length along the axial direction by changing the thickness of permanent magnet (PM). One has a single slope and the other has double slopes on the surface of PM. For the design of the proposed models, variables are defined and its effects on the motor performances are investigated by 3-demensional finite element analysis (FEA). The equi-performance curves are investigated for the main characteristics of the spindle motor such as generated torque, axial force and torque ripple ratio. The validity of the proposed models is verified by the feasibility study and performance evaluation.

Magnetic bearings have been widely used to support rotors without any physical contact. This however, requires the control of five degrees-of-freedom and needs a separate driving motor. This paper introduces selfbearing motors which use the combination of a rotary motor and a magnetic bearing. These motors are suitable for use in high speed rotor or in special circumstances because they are small in size and can replace the contact components. The radial type one has the merit of being small in size and capable of controlling two degrees-of-freedom in x and y directions. The axial type motor controls only one degree-of-freedom in z direction. Theoretical background of the functions, of the motor and magnetic bearing will also be introduced. New research works are reviewed and the application in rotary blood pump is discussed.

In the preceding Part I study, for improving the unbalance response vibration of a large PRT motor-generator rotor fundamentally by design, a series of design analyses were carried out for bearing improvement by retrofitting from original plain partial journal bearings, applied for operation at a rated speed of 1,800 rpm, to final tilting pad journal bearings. To satisfy evenly key basic lubrication performances such as the minimum lift-off speed and maximum oil-film temperature, a design solution of 5-pad tilting pad journal bearings and maximizing the direct stiffness by about two times has been achieved. In this Part II study, a detailed rotordynamic analysis of the large PRT motor-generator rotor-bearing system will be performed, applying both the original plain partial journal bearings and the retrofitted tilting pad journal bearings, to confirm the effect of rotordynamic vibration improvement after retrofitting. The results show that the rotor unbalance response vibrations with the tilting pad journal bearings are greatly reduced by as much as about one ninth of those with the plain partial journal bearings. In addition, for the tilting pad journal bearings there exist no critical speed up to the rated speed and just one instance of a concerned critical speed around the rated speed, whereas for the plain partial journal bearings there exist one instance of a critical speed up to the rated speed and two instances of concerned critical speeds around the rated speed.
