Virial Approximation for Load and Loss in High-Speed Journal Bearings Using Pressurized Gases
We consider steady, laminar, compressible lubrication flows in a high-speed two-dimensional journal bearing governed by the appropriate Reynolds equation. The thermodynamic states correspond to pressurized gases and are in the single-phase regime. Simple explicit formulas for the load capacity, powe...
