Abstract

The dynamic stiffness and damping coefficients of an externally pressurized porous bearing with journal rotation have been calculated theoretically by assuming one-dimensional flow through the porous wall. A periodic disturbance (displacement) is imposed on the journal around its concentric position and the dynamic pressure distribution is determined by small perturbations of the modified Reynolds equation. Non-dimensional stiffness and damping coefficients for various design conditions are calculated numerically using a digital computer and presented in the form of design charts and tables.
