What is Effect of Thermal Boundary Conditions on Dynamic Characteristics of Multi-lobed Bearings about?
This work presents a three-dimensional, variable viscosity, thermo-hydrodynamic model of multilobed journal bearings, capable to estimate the pressure and temperature distributions of the lubricant flowing between a rotating shaft and the partial arcs composing the multi-lobed bearing configuration, that must support the external applied load. The thermal model estimates the lubricant temperature increase and its effect on the pressure distribution, the bearing hydrodynamic forces and its equivalent stiffness and damping coefficients. Estimation of the temperature increase requires numerical solution of the energy equation, which depends on the assumed thermal boundary conditions. Consequently, the model must take into account the shaft and bush surfaces either isothermal or adiabatic. This work investigates the effect of such cases on the predictions of the pressure, temperature, locus, stiffness and damping coefficients on two and three lobed bearings. It shows that if both surfaces are isothermal, the lubricant temperature increase is smaller. If both surfaces are adiabatic, temperature increase is higher. The effect of lobe preload is also investigated, showing that the bearing
