Pressure Field of Multi-pad Annular Recess Hydrostatic Thrust Bearing

In order to solve the deformation of the hydrostatic thrust bearing with multi-pad annular recess in the heavy computer numerical control(CNC)equipment,the simulation concerning pressure field of hydrostatic thrust bearing with multi-pad annular recesses was carried out.The finite volume method of computational fluid dynamics(CFD)was used to compute the three-dimensional pressure field of gap fluid between the rotary worktable and the base.The influence of the rotational speed on the bearing pressure performance was studied based on CFD and lubrication theory,and the method revealed the pressure distribution law.The results qualitatively agree well with the experimental data.The results indicate that the oil cavity pressure decreases gradually with rotational speed enhancing.The reliability of a hydrostatic thrust bearing with multi-pad annular recess can be predicted through this method,and the optimal design of such products can be achieved,and the numerical simulation method can provide reasonable data for design,lubrication,experiment,and deformation computation of hydrostatic thrust bearing in the heavy CNC equipment.
