Abstract:
The extended Reynolds
equation with fluid inertia effects considered is derived in the case of
the spherical hydrostatic thrust bearing relating along its equator
diameter. Numerical solutions of the equation are obtained. A comparison
of pressure distribution, load capacity and flow rate is made between
the solution with inertia effects and the linear solution in which the
inertia effects are neglected.
Key words:
