Identification Methods and Test Results for Tilting Pad and Fixed Geometry Journal Bearing Dynamic Coefficients – A Review

Fluid film journal bearings (FFBs) are used to support high-speed rotors in turbomachinery which often operate above the rotor first bending critical speed. The FFBs provide both lateral support and dynamic coefficients: stiffness, damping, and mass terms, related to machine vibrations. Detailed num...
