Abstract
In the present study, a multiphysics simulation model was established to evaluate the effects of the fluid-thermal-structural interaction on the performance of multifoil gas lubrication thrust bearing. The thermal and elastic deformation mechanisms of multifoil bearings were studied in detail, and the effects of the preload ratio and foil structural parameters on the bearing performance were analyzed. The results show that the preload ratio determines the performance of the multifoil thrust bearing. A small preload helps the bearing maintain a low lift-off speed, whereas a large preload is helpful in improving the bearing load capacity. The thickness of the foil has a significant effect on the gas film pressure distribution and the down foil thickness plays a leading role in the load capacity.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Engineering Tribology publishes high-quality, peer-reviewed papers from academia and industry worldwide on the engineering science associated with tribology and its applications.
"I am proud to say that I have been part of the tribology research community for almost 20 years. That community has always seemed to me to be highly active, progressive, and closely knit. The conferences are well attended and are characterised by a warmth and friendliness that transcends national boundaries. I see Part J as being an important part of that community, giving us an outlet to publish and promote our scholarly activities. I very much look forward to my term of office as editor of your Journal. I hope you will continue to submit papers, help out with reviewing, and most importantly to read and talk about the work you will find there." Professor Rob Dwyer-Joyce, Sheffield University, UK
