A computational fluid dynamics simulation of oil-air flow between the cage and inner race of an aero-engine bearing
In aero-engines, the shafts are supported on bearings that carry the radial and axial loads. A ball bearing is made up of an inner race, an outer race, and a cage, which contains the balls, these together comprise the bearing elements. The bearings require oil for lubrication and cooling. The design...
