Abstract |
|
Rotating machineries are always subject to vibrations due to critical speeds, unbalance, and instability. Usually the least expensive modification of a machine to make is the bearing. A wide variety of bearings have been developed to combat some of the different types of vibration problems. This report consist the analysis of 360deg hydrodynamic bearing of Boiler Feed water Pump. The boiler feed water pump is very critical rotatory equipment of Thermal power plant the bearing of this pump must be able to withstand in vibration and other hydraulic forces while still maintaining a high degree of reliability. This report consist analysis and design of 360 hydrodynamic bearing also replacing fixed pad by flexural pad and analysis bearing vibration and compare vibration for the same condition with the help of FEM Method in ANSYS. |
