Experimental study of journal bearings dynamics
Tkadlec, Josef ; Vimmr, Jan (referee) ; Omasta, Milan (advisor)
This work deals with experimental analysis of fluid film instability in rotor bearing systems stored in hydrodynamic plain bearings with focus on bearing surface modification. The experiments were performed on a journal bearing dynamics simulator. The aim was to determine the influence of individual operating parameters on the occurrence and course of turbulence instability. The emphasis here was on the effect of surface micro textures. The work also included the preparation of textured samples. Experiments were divided into experiments monitoring the influence of temperature, pressure, bearing geometry and surface modification. The output of the individual experiments were the values of the threshold speed of formation and termination of instability or the magnitude of the amplitude depending on the above described parameters. These values were plotted in graphs. This data was then confronted with previously published articles. The results showed that instabilityin rotor systems is very sensitive to temperature, pressure and bearing geometry changes. The fundamental influence on the unstable behavior of the rotor system has been demonstrated by the use of textured surfaces, where the threshold speed was significantly shifted to a higher speed range compared to the non-textured bearing.
