Generators with small gas turbines that generate less than 100kW are drawing attention as a power source of cogeneration systems. Dynamic pressure type air foil bearings are expected to serve as shaft bearings. The design that these bearing are simply designed, easy to produce and maintenance free without requiring lubrication, holds the key to miniaturization of micro-gas turbines. However, the details of such design guidelines have not been clarified though this technology is used in APC for aircraft units. In this study, in order to obtain design guidelines of foil bearing, in making the foil to be the discretion beam, the modeling of the foil was carried out. Taking the frictional forces of attachment part of the foil and the protrusion, etc. into consideration, static characteristic and dynamic characteristic were analyzed to examine performance and stability of the radial foil bearing.
