ABSTRACT
Radial, tilting-pad journal bearings are usually applied in high speed rotating machines operating at small and mean motionless loads and
the peripheral speeds of journal reaching 150 m/s. These bearings have good stability at high speeds, are less responsive to the load direction
and shaft misalignment compared to the multilube bearings. Each pad tilts about its pivot making a hydrodynamic film that generates a
pressure reacting to the static load applied on the spinning journal. This type of bearing is typically installed to carry a static load on a pad
(LOP) or a static load in between pads (LBP).These bearings tender natural stability resulting from zero cross-coupling dynamic factor. It
has been establish that the dynamic properties of TPJBs are frequency dependent. on the other hand, in engineering tradition, laboratory
analysis of rotor dynamics is based on the values determined for the frequency which corresponds to the rotor speed .The paper analyzes
the conclusion of bearing stiffness and damping from experimental and investigational and theoretical investigations. It has been found that
the variations of tilting-pad bearings stiffness and damping properties with frequency of excitation depend on the bearing operating
situation,and can be very important.
KEYWORDS: Tilting Bearing Pads, Frequency, Dynamic Load, The Rotor Mass, Hydrodynamic Force Components
The tilting-pad bearings are the bearings, which have divide
pads and the space
between single tilting-pads effects the bearing act. The number
of tilting-pads can
be basically 3 to 5 depending on the required operating
parameters of rotating machine and the exitaton frequence in
system .The operating surfaces of tilting-pads are the
cylindrical ones with the spin around centred on the pad arc or
displaced in the direction of journal rotation from the pad
centre. The tilting 12-pad journal bearings have found
application in the turbines of hydroelectric power plants as the
radial bearings of vertical rotor.Tilting pad bearings is a partial
arc design. This configuration has individual bearing pads
which are allowed to pivot or tilt to conform with the dynamic
loads from the lubricant and shaft. This type of bearing is a
unidirectional design and is available in several variations
incorporating differing numbers of pads with the generated
load applied on a pad or between the pads.
A journal bearing, simply stated, is a cylinder which surrounds
the shaft and is filled with some form of fluid lubricant. In this
bearing a fluid is the medium that supports the shaft
preventing metal to metal contact. The most common fluid
used is oil, with special applications using water or a gas. This
application note will concentrate on oil lubricated journal
bearings.
Dynamics of high speed rotating equipment depend strongly
on journal bearings. Currently, tilting pad journal bearings
(TPJB) are leading as shaft support in such machinery in
power plant . This is mostly for the reason that of the
following two kind of the TPJBs: 1) freedom from self-
excited vibration, and 2) tolerance to misalignment.
Rotordynamic study is based on predicted bearing linear
dynamic factor, which are determined supposition
synchronous shaft vibrations (synchronously reduced stiffness
and damping factor). as regards, some investigational and
theoretical studies of tilting pad journal bearings illustrate a
positive effect of excitation frequency on the bearing stiffness
and damping factor (Parsell et al., 2005; Adams and
McCloskey, 1990). Other reported conclusions show quite
limited dependency on frequency, or are uncertain (Glienicke,
1967). If the bearing dynamic properties do depend on
destabilizing frequency, it is significant to also know the
properties, which match to the first usual frequency. In
totalling, non-synchronous forces, such as those related with
internal flow, or due to magnetic effects in generators, may
also affect rotor-bearing dynamics. getting a reliable guess of
the journal bearing dynamic properties has always been a
demanding task. The narrative documents moderately few
cases of such attempts. Using peripheral synchronous loads to
excite the test bearing, Glienicke (Cai, 2000) evaluated
stiffness and damping properties after measuring the applied
load and the resulting shaft path. A equivalent technique was
used by Morton (Parkins, 1979), who used non-synchronous
excitation in both the vertical and horizontal commands.
Parkins (Burrows, 1982), Brockwell and Dmochowski (Lund,
1964) used a more direct method of measuring the bearing
dynamic properties of journal bearings by generating two
different, straight line orbits of vibration. To obtain such
orbits, the magnitude of two oscillating forces, as well as the
Indian J.Sci.Res.1(2) : 690-701, 2014 - 691 -
phase difference between them, were carefully adjusted. The
main advantage connected with this method was that it passed
the measurement of the phase angle between the vectors of
shaft displacement and excitation force.
These methods signify time domain techniques. deplorably, it
was found that a small error in triggering or in the measured
phase angle could conclusion in large errors in the calculated
values. Frequency amplitude techniques overcome these
trouble. Burrows and Sahinkaya (Rouvas and Childs, 1993)
and Rodriguez and Childs (1) used frequency domain
algorithms for dynamic testing of bearings. This paper
analyzes the Changes of the stiffness and damping factor for
the tilting pad journal bearings with the frequency of
excitation and explainS the analytical and experimental
techniques used to evaluate these properties.
ASSESSMENT OF THE DYNAMIC FACTOR FOR
THE TILTING-PAD JOURNAL BEARINGS
Tilt Pad Bearing Preload
Fluid-film journal bearings offer the main support for
horizontal turbomachinery rotors. These bearings come in
many configurations from trouble-free, fixed geometry to
multifaceted tilt-pad units, such as the bottom-half bearing
assembly (Fig. 1).Bearing design is dependent upon criterion
such as load, speed, constancy, rotor dynamics, lubricants, and
price. Within the selection of design parameters, preload is
important in controlling bearing act, which finally impacts
preservation and operating costs. Tilting pad bearings usually
contain three to six pads. Orientation of the pads is distinct as
either load on pivot (LOP) or load between pivots (LBP). If a
horizontal rotor has a single pad centered at the bottom of the
bearing,an LOP condition exists. If two pads sit astride the
bottom centerline, then the bearing is referred to as an
LBP.The pad rotation of an LBP bearing results in a descend
of the shaft centerline below the LOP bearing (Fig. 1). The
amount of shaft drop is dependent on the bearing geometry.
Figure 1. Preload on tilting pad bearing
Bearing Preload
As the oil hold clearance changes,bearing stiffness and
damping are influenced. In order to give a ordinary method of
recitation these variations, the impression of preload is
applied. Preload is often used to adjust bearing factor in order
to obtain exact rotor response type. Since the translational
first-critical and the pivotal second-critical speeds depend on
bearing stiffness,proper range of preload may be required to
keep the rotor critical speeds out of the operating speed range.
Bearing preload is defined as follows:
The clearance value must be consistent either radial or
diametrical
−=
pad
brg
C
Ceload 1Pr
Where brgC is increase of the lift by the suitable factor
provides a good approximation of the bearing diametrical, or,
assembly clearance (Cbrg). It is identical to the assembly bore
diameter minus the journal diameter. It is also equal to the
diameter of the major mandrel that can be inserted into the
bearing minus the journal diameter.
Indian J.Sci.Res.1(2) : 690-701, 2014 - 692 -
An additional characteristic of journal bearings is damping.
This type of bearing provides much more damping than a
rolling element bearing because of the lubricant present. More
viscous and thicker lubricant films provide higher damping
properties. As the available damping increases, the bearing
stability also increases. A stable bearing design holds the rotor
at a fixed attitude angle during transient periods such as
machine startups/shutdowns or load changes. The damping
properties of the lubricant also provides an excellent medium
for limiting vibration transmission. Thus, a vibration
measurement taken at the bearing outer shell will not represent
the actual vibration experienced by the rotor within its bearing
clearances.
Bearing Linear Dynamic Factor
A major design consideration in the passive tilting-pad bearing
is the radial position of each pad/pivot pair. That is, the pads
can be located such that their centers of curvature (with zero
tilt angles) do not all necessarily coincide with the bearing
center. This is known as the preload factor, and directly affects
the dynamic stability properties of the bearing. The question is
then: How does one determine the “optimal” pad locations for
a given operating condition of the rotating machine?The
answer to this question naturally leads to the concept of the
active tilting-pad bearing. The idea of actively translating the
pads ofatilting-pad bearing was first proposed by. The
hypothesis is that it could further improve the stability
properties and performance of the bearing system.
Specifically, the dynamic damping-stiffness effects of the
bearing could be adjusted due to the variation in the fluid film
thickness caused by the pad/pivot pair translation. The
reasoning behind this hypothesis can be understood by
examining the Reynolds equation for laminar, incompressible,
Newtonian, inertialess, thin-film flows For a rigid shaft we
may inscribe the following two equations of motion (Figure

Figure 2. Organize System For Estimate Of Journal Bearing Dynamic Factor
For a little vibration approximately the shaft symmetry position, we may consider that the resultant bearing force is linearly relative to
the journal movement x j and y j , and velocities x j and y j . The equations (1) can then be written as follows:

The factor with the index xx and yy are called direct stiffness
and damping factor, while those with the indices xy and yx are
referred to as cross-coupling factor.
The last symbolize a connection of the hydrodynamic force
part in the horizontal or vertical direction and the journal
movement in the way perpendicular to this component. Figure
1 illustrates the journal centre pathway resulting from changes
to the bearing static load. The action of the cross-coupling
stiffness factor is accountable for instability of hydrodynamic
bearings (half-frequency spin, oil whip).
For each of the pads of tilting-pad journal bearing its
hydrodynamic force passes through has zero cross-coupling
rigidity, and thus is naturally stable.

Computer Model
Calculations of the bearing dynamic properties have been
based on a three-dimensional model of tilting-pad journal
bearings, though all the main equations are summary to a two-
dimensional form. The model has been described somewhere
else (Dmochowski and Brockwell, 1995). Here, only a brief
explanation is given.
A limited length pressure equation (circumferential and axial
directions) allows for viscosity variations in circumferential
direction and across the oil film. Turbulent flow is also
accounted for by counting Reynolds number effect. The
temperature and viscosity fields are obtained from a two-
dimensional energy equation, which accounts for heat
conduction in radial direction and heat convection
circumferentially. Oil mixing in the bearing cavities as well as
hot-oil carry over is also built-in in the analysis. Heat
conducted through the pad is calculated from the Laplace
equation, which accounts for heat conduction in
circumferential and radial directions. The model also
calculates both the thermal and elastic distortions of the
individual pads.
Figure 4. Typical pivot stiffness of a 120 mm TPJB
The above hydrodynamic considerations allow for calculation
of the stiffness and damping factor for fixed pads. They have
been used to compute the factor for tilting pads applying the
technique described by Lund (Kirk and Reedy, 1988). This
technique takes into considerations the mass and the excitation
frequency of the tilting pad. naturally, calculated bearing
dynamic properties are obtained after assuming that shaft mass
can be deserted and that both shaft and pad motions are
synchronous with shaft rotary speed. certainly, mass forces
associated with tilting of the pads are negligible when
compared with viscous forces. However, pivot stiffness can be
of the same order of magnitude as the oil film stiffness, and
thus can engage in recreation an important function in the
bearing dynamic properties. Figure 3 shows pivot stiffness for
a typical 140 mm diameter bearing calculated using the
formulae given by Kirk and Reedy (Flack and Zuck, 1988).
Thus, each pad can be represented by the mass, spring, and
damper elements, as shown in Figure 5.

The schematic shown in Figure 5 illustrates the mass-spring-

experiences the combined action of all the elements of the
system represented by equivalent stiffness and damping factor.
From the deliberation of the systems shown in Figure 5 the
equivalent factor can be evaluated from equaition (5).

Experimental Investigation
The NRC’s test fix, which is shown in Figure 7, utilizes the
scheme of a fixed rotating shaft (1) and a free vibrating test
bearing (2). Two orthogonal electro-magnetic shakers (3) and
(4) apply dynamic loads to the stator, and the bearing’s reply
is measured. Each shaker is attached to the bearing housing
through a steel rod and a flexible element assembly (5) that
prevents any constraints of the housing in a path at a 90 degree
angle to the shaking force. The shaft is supported on high
accuracy, angular ball bearings. A tensioned cable (6) applies
a static load. Soft springs (7) minimize the effect of bearing
vibration on the applied static load.

The quantity of the bearing/shaft displacement within the
bearing clearance is contaminated by noise. Collecting a
certain number of accounts, and using their average can
minimize this effect. However, averaging in time field is not
suitable for random signals, and frequency domain techniques
should be applied. estimate of the bearing dynamic properties
using frequency domain techniques allows for minimization of
noise effects and the errors related with triggering.

,Y are Fourier transforms of excitation forces in the horizontal
and vertical directions, accelerations in the horizontal and
vertical directions, and displacements in the horizontal and
vertical directions, respectively.
The two Equations (7) contain four unknowns H ij . so, an
extra self-determining excitation is required to find two more
formulae, needed to calculate the bearing dynamic properties.
The Power Spectral Density method, which is described in
(Brockwell et al., 1990), has been used to evaluate the bearing
stiffness and damping factor. The bearing dynamic properties
have been determined from 16 following records. Each record
consisted of 256 samples of each measured variable (6
channels), collected over a period of 0.1 s
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
In order to appraise the frequency effects on the bearing
dynamic properties calculations, an experimental examination
has been carried out for two effective conditions, which are
typical for high speed rotating machinery in power plant. The
bearing parameters and operating conditions are shown in
Table 2. For both suitcases pivot stiffness is similar and its
variation with load is shown in Figure 3.

Case 1 represents a reasonably loaded bearing.
Figure 7 illustrates the deliberate and calculated
variations of the actual part of the frequency
response function, equation (6), which represents
bearing stiffness. The conclusions show a convinced
frequency effect on the bearing stiffness properties;
the factor decrease with the excitation frequency. For
the excitation frequencies up to that of the shaft
rotary motion (150 Hz), factor of stiffness are
comparatively constant. This effect is mainly clear
for the vertical bearing stiffness, kyy=Re(Hyy), at
higher frequencies of excitation.

Figure 8. Bearing direct stiffness factor: Case 1. a. horizontal b. vertical
The direct bearing damping factor for Case 1 are
represented by the angle of the imaginary part of the
frequency answer off function Hi,j (Eq. 8) illustrated
in Figure 8. Constant angle indicates insignificant
effects of both the pivot flexibility and the pad’s
mass. even though the trends of the experimental
results shown in Figures 7 and 8 are well defined, a
sure spread of the conclusions can be seen. earlier
analysis has shown that the doubt for the stiffness
and damping factor can exceed 10% and 15% in that
order (Rodriguezand Childs, 2004). in addition, the
results can be affected by the shaft flexibility.
Figure 9. 1 Bearing direct damping properties: Case 1. a. Horizontal b.vertical
With the validated model from Case 1, a different
bearing dynamic actions has been experiential in
Case 2 (Table 2), which deals with similar bearing
operating conditions and bearing geometry as those
of Case 1, apart from the bearing width. With a L/d
(length-to-diameter ratio) of 1.0, the bearing is
considered to be lightly loaded, as the operating
unconventional behaviour was just about 0.1 of the
bearing radial clearance. At such a low eccentricity,
and with the preload of 0.3, each pad of the bearing
operates under load. In this situation, both the
horizontal and vertical bearing direct stiffness factor
raise ith the frequency of excitation.

Figure 10. Calculated bearing stiffness factor: Case 2.
a. horizontal b. cross-coupling c. vertical
As different to Case 1, frequency of excitation very
strongly affected the bearing damping properties.
Figure 10 shows that the fantasy part of the
frequency response function levels out, which means
a important reduce in bearing damping, even at
subsynchronous (with respect to the shaft turning
frequency) frequencies.
Figure 11. Calculated bearing damping properties: Case 2.
a. horizontal b. cross-coupling c. Vertical
Figures 10 and 11 also compare the result of (enabled
by pivot suppleness). It is the pad radial motion and
pivot stiffness that lead to variations of the dynamic
properties with frequency of excitation. Bearings
with inflexible pivots have steady stiffness and
damping factor for the entire range of measured
frequencies. Figures 10b and 11b show that the pad
flexibility and associated inertia forces do not affect
the cross coupling factor for tilting-pad journal
bearings.
4.0 CONCLUDING REMARKS
a. An insufficient knowledge of the bearing dynamic
properties is following many of the vibration
problems in rotating machinery in abadan power
plant ( iran ) . This study points at frequency effects
Indian J.Sci.Res.1(2) : 690-701, 2014 - 701 -
on the stiffness and damping factor of the tilting-pad
journal bearings as one of the potential issues in
rotordynamic stability analysis.
b. Pivot flexibility can have a important effect on the
TPJB’s dynamic behavior, in exacting at higher
frequencies of excitations.
c. As a result of pivot flexibility, the bearing stiffness
factor can boost or reduce with the frequency of
excitation, depending on functional conditions and
bearing design.
d. In the attendance of pivot flexibility, an increase in
frequency of excitation can lead to a important
reduce in bearing damping in the horizontal as well
as in the vertical directions.
