The application of an aerodynamic plate-foil journal bearing for a cryogenic turboexpander.

Author(s) : HOU Y., WANG B. C., XIONG L. Y., et al.

Summary

A developmental study is being conducted on the application of gas lubricated aerodynamic plate-foil journal bearing to the high speed cryogenic turboexpander. This type of plate-foil journal bearing is promising in the replacement of the externally pressurized gas bearing widely used now and possesses better stability. A 25.0 millimeter diameter plate-foil journal bearing has undergone testing in the air cryogenic turboexpander.
