摘要
In this study, a structural optimization method driven by tribo-dynamic mechanism is proposed for the staved water-lubricated bearings (SWLBs). To this end, a tribo-dynamic model considering mass conservation cavitation is established, and the accuracy of this model is verified by comparing it with the experimental and numerical results in published literature studies. The comparative studies emphasize the significant role of mass conservation cavitation on the tribo-dynamic responses of SWLBs under the mixed lubrication regime. Based on numerical simulations, the optimal stave structure for a specific working operation under heavy load condition is identified from the perspective of the tribo-dynamic mechanism. Furthermore, in order to evaluate the applicability of the proposed optimization method, the influences of key parameters, including the rotational speed, the radial clearance, and the surface roughness, on the optimization results are comparatively analyzed. The comparative results reveal that the optimal stave structure is highly dependent on the mentioned key parameters, and the optimal method is effective for a wide range of working conditions. Moreover, the effects of the stave parameters, including stave width and number, on tribo-dynamic characteristics of SWLBs are also investigated, suggesting a more comprehensive optimization scheme for SWLBs.
