Steady-state performance analysis of misaligned double-layered porous journal bearings under coupled-stress lubrication with slip flow and additives percolation effect

摘要

The aim of this paper is to address the effect of misalignment of the double-layered porous journal bearing on the steady-state performance analysis under coupled-stress lubrication with velocity phenomenon at the fine porous interface. Here, the misalignment caused by shaft displacement, e.g. axial (vertical displacement) and twisting (horizontal displacement) is considered. This analysis includes velocity slip phenomenon on the basis of Beavers-Joseph criteria. Moreover, the present analysis also focuses on the percolation effect of the additives into the pores of the porous layers. Steady-state film pressures are obtained by solving the modified Reynolds equation based on the coupled-stress lubrication theory. Under various parametric conditions, pressure profiles in the film region are discussed and demonstrated in the graphical form. Using these film pressure values, steady-state characteristics in terms of bearing load carrying capacity, attitude angle, frictional parameter, side leakage and misalignment moment are evaluated at various parametric conditions and represented in the graphical form.
