Description
Summary:The performance of supporting journal bearing of the star gear transmission system in the geared turbo fan engine (GTF) is analyzed. A thermal-elastohydrodynamic analysis model was developed for textured journal bearing used in high-speed and high-specific-pressure conditions. The Navier-Stokes equation, energy equation, and viscosity-temperature equation were calculated by the computational fluid dynamics method. The influence of elastic deformation on bearing thermal hydrodynamic performance was studied in detail. The results indicate that the elastic deformation has an influence on the distribution of oil temperature and oil pressure. Besides, a comparative thermo-elastohydrodynamic analysis was conducted between the textured bearing and the un-textured bearing, and the discrepancies of maximum oil pressure, load carrying capacity and the maximum oil temperature are few. However, the textured bearing has a lower elastic deformation than the un-textured bearing.
