Research Abstract |
This study optimized the viscoelastic elements supporting a bearing and proposed the herringbone-grooved aerodynamic journal bearing that can support a rotating shaft without whirl instability even at ultra-high-speed rotational region. In this study, O-rings were used as the viscoelastic elements. This study, first of all, identified the stiffness and the damping coefficients of O-rings under bearing supporting for different materials, temperatures and deformation ratios. Next, the results were formulated by the empirical formula and their nonlinearities were mathematically evaluated. Subsequently, the stability threshold of the bearing system is predicted using the empirical formula and compared with the experimental results. Finally, the design guilds for increasing the stability threshold of the bearing system were clarified by reference to the empirical formula.
