A numerical study of self-acting gas-lubricated wave journal bearings is presented for their dynamic performances : HFW(self-excited half-frequency whirl)stability and dynamic response of an out-of-balance rotor. The study is conducted under practical operating conditions by means of a nonlinear orbit approach. Numerical examples of wave bearings are compared with those of herringbone-grooved bearings, and it is found that wave bearings give relatively favorable dynamic performances. Considering both HFW stability and dynamic stiffness, three-wave bearings are recommended for a practical use. However, it should be pointed out that HFW stability of wave bearings is quite sensitive to the wave amplitude, and also the synchronous orbit geometry of an unbalanced rotor supported on a wave bearing can be complicated out of plain circle.

A multigrid method has been introduced as a fast alternative to conventional relaxation methods for obtaining a solution to the Reynolds equation for self-acting gas-lubricated bearings. This paper verifies the procedure applied to both static and time-dependent dynamic analyses of plain-cylindrical journal bearings. The method gives successful results with less computational effort compared with single grid-oriented iterative methods. In addition, the new approach does not require a trial and error process to optimize the overrelaxation parameter unlike a successive overrelaxation method. The nonlinear orbit method which is an accurate but time-consuming transient analysis is expected to be reduced to a handy design tool for a complicated bearing system on incorporating the multigrid technique.

Both experimental and numerical studies are conducted on half-frequency whirl (HFW) stability of axially-grooved self-acting gas-lubricated journal bearings. The studies demonstrate that 8-grooved bearings are unconditionally unstable with usual bearing clearance and rotational speed. On the other hand, 2 grooved bearings operate stably at relatively low values of bearing number which are obtained with usual clearance and speed. The physics of HFW stability is attributed to the pressure distribution geometry. Further, as a result of extensive numerical simulations, it is found that 3 grooved bearings with groove width ratio to total width of 0.3 through 0.5 give favorable stability performance.
