Surface roughness characteristics effects on fluid load capability of tilt pad thrust bearings with water lubrication

Abstract The effects of surface roughness characteristics on the fluid load capacity of tilt pad thrust bearings with water lubrication were studied by the average flow model. The flow factors utilized in the average flow model were simulated with various surface roughness parameters including skewn...
