Lubrication of a Porous Bearing—Stokes’ Solution

  • Chapter

Abstract

The problem of finding the pressure distribution and force resultants created by the rotation of an impermeable journal in a permeable bearing is of practical engineering importance. Many bearings of this type are used in the construction of machine elements. In this paper, we treat an idealized version of this problem with the aim of isolating the physical effects of the bearing flow.
