This work aims to evaluate the dynamic coefficients of the tilting pad journal bearing through the thermohydrodynamic and hydrodynamic analysis, investigating the influence of thermal effects in the dynamic coefficients. The dynamic coefficients of the tilting pad journal bearings are obtained by numerical simulation, solving the Reynolds equation iteratively with the energy equation by finite volume method. In doing so, this work presents the influence of the thermal effects in the dynamic coefficients when considering both the full and the reduced damping and stiffness matrices, discussing the relevance of the thermal effects in the dynamic coefficients in both approaches.
