Modeling of a Grooved Parallel Bearing with a Mass-Conserving Cavitation Algorithm

Several load-supporting mechanisms have been studied to deal with the cavitation problem in parallel bearings. The formation of cavities and their disposition affect the pressure generated in a continuous thin film and hence the load capacity of bearings. In solving the Reynolds equation, proper cav...
