Descrizione:
The purpose of this book is to investigate the steadystate behavior of a pressurized wave bearing. The pressurized air wave journal bearing was analyzed using a commercial CFD software, Fluent. The 3D Navier Stokes compressible equations were integrated to simulate the flow. Turbulence effects were included in the computation. The real geometry of the wave bearing and of the supply holes were simulated by using a structured grid. The steps performed during the numerical simulation and the setup of Fluent used in the book are presented in detail.
