Abstract
The dynamic behaviour of an externally pressurized porous gas journal bearing is analysed by assuming one-dimensional flow through the porous bushing. A periodic disturbance (angular displacement) about the transverse axis is imposed on the bearing and the resulting dynamic pressure distribution is determined by small perturbations of the Reynolds equation. A finite difference method is used to determine the dynamic pressure. Design data for tilt stiffness and damping as a function of squeeze number, feeding parameter, supply pressure and porosity parameter are calculated numerically using a digital computer and are presented in tables and figures.
