Rotordynamics of Gas-Lubricated Journal Bearing Systems

Download or read book Rotordynamics of Gas-Lubricated Journal Bearing Systems written by Krzysztof Czolczynski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1999-09-24 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A discussion of models for the behaviour of gas bearings, particularly of the aspects affecting the stability of the system. The text begins with a discussion of the mathematical models, identifying the stiffness and damping coefficients, and describing the behaviour of the models in unstable regions. It then turns to apply these results to bearings: static characteristics and stability of various rotor systems and an extensive discussion of air rings.
