Incompressible and Analytical Study on Load-Carrying Capacity of a Complex Thrust Gas Bearing

摘要

A type of aerodynamic/aerostatic complex thrust gas bearing was presented in the investigation of the coupling between aerodynamics and aerostatics with the objective of further improving the performance of the thrust gas bearing. Its analytical model was also set up completely under incompressible conditions. Based on this model, the load-carrying capacity function apparently included pressure and structure coupling items. However, this structure cannot be used when the pressure ratio of the complex gas bearing is less than 1.
