Modelling droplet heat and mass transfer in aero-engine bearing chambers

Bearings are critical elements of aero-engines because they support the axial and radial loads of the turbomachinery and allow the transfer of the engine thrust forces onto the airframe. The bearings are enclosed by a chamber to avoid oil leakages to other parts of the turbine. Inside bearing chambe...
