Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air bearings, in particular to a novel active air foil bearing based on PZT (piezoelectric ceramics) and SMA (shape memory alloy). Background technique
[0002] The air foil bearing is composed of the top foil, the wave foil and the shaft sleeve. It uses the relative motion between the rotating rotor and the bearing to generate a wedge-shaped space to squeeze the gas with a certain viscosity to form a pressure with a certain stiffness and damping. The stiffness and damping of the aerodynamic pressure bearing supported by the lubricating air film are determined by the series connection of the bearing structure and the lubricating air film.
[0003] The traditional air foil bearing supports the loaded rotor through the wedge effect, and the high-speed rotation of the rotor squeezes the gas to generate a dynamic pressure effect; the elastic foil is used as a supporting structure to provide a certain stiffnes...
