About this document

Incompressible Fluid Flow in Journal Bearings by Asemota Oghogho is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document summarizes research on modeling fluid flow in journal bearings when the fluid viscosity depends on pressure. It presents a model where viscosity is an exponential function of pressure and compares it to a model where viscosity depends nonlinearly on both pressure and shear rate. Numerical experiments simulate fluid flow in an eccentric journal bearing geometry under different parameter values for each model. The results show the reacting forces on the bearing for each model and parameter set.
