Theoretical Analysis of Orifice Compensated Symmetric and Asymmetric Hydrostatic Non-Recessedjournal Bearings Under Couple Stress Lubricants

Abstract

In this research a hole-entry hydrostatic journal bearings with couple stress and Newtonian lubricants have been examined analytically. The Newton Rapshon Method and Finite Element Method have been applied on Reynolds equation for couple stress and for the Newtonian lubricants to achieve the film pressure. The results of disparate factors of couple stress lubricants and the external load have been modeled. The outcome of the achieved results showed that the static and dynamic actions of bearings enhanced under a couple stress lubricants assessed the bearings performance with Newtonian lubricant.
