摘要:
为探究滑移边界和轴承参数对轴承特性的影响,将考虑滑移边界的雷诺方程应用至具有波箔支撑的多叶式箔片轴承中。依次借助Newton-Raphson法和小扰动法线性化压力控制方程,并利用弯曲梁模型描述箔片径向变形,结合有限差分法建立该类型轴承的流-固耦合求解模型,数值结果与试验结果吻合较好。研究了轴承数、偏心率、长径比、间隙比、平箔片数目以及平箔片厚度对该类型轴承特性参数的影响规律,研究结果表明:对于八叶轴承,当轴承数或间隙比较小时,滑移边界会导致承载力普遍下降3%,此时应考虑其影响,但该影响对长径比和平箔片厚度的变化不敏感。此外,该类型轴承稳定性整体较好,当轴承数较小时滑移边界会导致轴承稳定性下降。
Abstract:To investigate the effect of slip boundary and bearing parameters on bearing characteristics, the Reynolds equation considering slip boundary was introduced to the multi-leaf foil bearing with bump-foil support. The Newton-Raphson iterative method and the perturbation method were successively employed to linearize the pressure governing equation, and the curved beam model was used to describe the radial foil deformation. The finite difference method was adopted to help establish the fluid-structure coupling solution model of this type of bearing, and the numerical results agreed well with the experimental results. The influences of bearing number, eccentricity ratio, length-diameter ratio, clearance ratio, the number and thickness of top foil on characteristic parameters were studied. The results indicated that slip boundary caused a general decrease of 3% in the load capacity of eight-leaf bearing when the bearing number and length-diameter ratio were small, meaning that the effect of slip boundary should be taken into consideration. Nevertheless, this effect was not sensitive to the change in the length-diameter ratio and thickness of the top foil. Besides, this type of bearing had a better stability. When the bearing number was small, the slip boundary led to the decline of bearing stability.
