Effect of the fluid film profile on the performance of magnetohydrodynamic bearings

The effect of the film profile on the pressure distribution, load, flow rate and flow per unit load of an externally pressurized circular magnetohydrodynamic bearing was investigated. Numerical solutions including the effect of rotational speed were obtained and compared for six film profiles. The r...

Zusammenfassung:The effect of the film profile on the pressure distribution, load, flow rate and flow per unit load of an externally pressurized circular magnetohydrodynamic bearing was investigated. Numerical solutions including the effect of rotational speed were obtained and compared for six film profiles. The results revealed that the bearing performance depends on the fluid film profile.
