THERMO HYDRODYNAMIC (THD) COMPUTATIONAL ANALYSIS FOR TILTING PAD THRUST BEARINGS (TPTBS)
(Turbomachinery Laboratory, 2017-05-24)
The report details a thermo-hydrodynamic (THD) analysis for the static and dynamic force performance of TPTBs. The goal is to deliver a modern predictive tool for TPTBs to be further integrated into the XLTRC2 software suite.
