  The aim of the study is to investigate the performance of a thrust bearing equipped with hydrostatic lift pockets under different lubrication modes. Three types of flat land bearing lubrication modes are studied experimentally: hydrostatic lubrication (HS; forced oil injection to the pockets), hybrid lubrication (HS + HD; hydrostatic lubrication combined with the external forced bearing oil supply) and hydrodynamic lubrication...

• Evaluation of apparent Young׳s modulus of the composite polymer layers used as sliding surfaces in hydrodynamic thrust bearings

  Publication

  - TRIBOLOGY INTERNATIONAL - Year 2016

  Hydrodynamic bearings with a polymer sliding layer are able to operate in severe conditions, mainly due to favorable properties of the polymers. The goal of this research was to evaluate apparent Young׳s modulus of two types of the polymer composite layers used for sliding surfaces in hydrodynamic bearings, as a function of temperature. The Young׳s modulus was evaluated on the basis of compression tests carried out on samples obtained...

• Field tests on hydrodynamic and hybrid operation of a bi-directional thrust bearing of a pump-turbine

  - Year 2017

  In vertical shaft pump turbines operating in pumped storage power plants an important role is played by a thrust bearing. Because of bi-directional character of operation, thrust bearing tilting pads have to be supported symmetrically, which is known to be unfavourable from the point of view of their performance. Large thrust bearings have to be carefully designed so as to minimise excessive thermo-elastic pad deformations. The...

  - Year 2004

  Celem pracy jest przeprowadzenie weryfikacji przyjętych parametrów konstrukcyjnych układu hydrostatycznego wspomagania łożyska wzdłużnego turbiny elektrowni wodnej Dychów. Weryfikację przeprowadzono na drodze obliczeniowej z wykorzystaniem MES, uwzględniając w obliczeniach deformacje klocka łożyska, warunki jego podparcia oraz przepływ oleju w szczelinie smarowej. Przedstawiono wyniki obliczeń które potwierdzają poprawność przyjętych...
