Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of fluid bearing / intelligent algorithm technology, and more specifically to a method and system for predicting the thermal-mechanical performance of a hydrodynamic oil film bearing based on artificial intelligence. Background Art
[0002] Oil film bearing is a radial sliding bearing that uses lubricating oil as the lubricating medium. Among them, tilting pad hydrodynamic oil film bearings are widely used in high-speed and heavy-load industrial machinery such as turbomachinery, air compressors, electric spindles, and pumps due to their high load-bearing capacity and wide speed range. When the rotor rotates at high speed, a wedge-shaped oil film will be generated between the rotor and the bearing; under the dynamic pressure support of the oil film, the rotor is suspended in the bearing. However, the high-speed, high-load, and high-viscosity application environment characteristics are bound to cause varying degrees of fatigue loss to the bearing, which in turn causes the instability of the rotor system and even causes the entire rotating machinery equipment to shut down and scrap. Generally, the stability of the rotor-bearing system is related to performance parameters such as the load capacity of the bearing, the stiffness and damping of the bearing, the minimum oil film thickness, the temperature field distribution during the operation of the rotor-bearing, and the viscosity of the lubricating oil. There are many parameters that affect the above characteristics, such as oil supply temperature, bearing clearance, bearing aspect ratio, lubrication method, bearing pivot offset coefficient, and bearing preload.
[0003] The traditional numerical calculation method based on empirical formula or finite element / finite difference is to predict Dynamic oil film The main way to predict the mechanical properties and temperature field of bearings. Traditional numerical calculation methods have high accuracy in predicting the mechanical and thermodynamic properties of tilting pad bearings, but solving finite element models requires a lot of computing time, which greatly increases the computing cost. At the same time, some models are only applicable to a single configuration of bearing types, and the applicability of the model is low. Artificial intelligence is increasingly used in computational mechanics, combining traditional finite element mechanism models with machine learning to nonlinearly reduce the order of traditional models for fast and effective simulation. Although some studies have attempted to predict bearing characteristics through AI, the existing research still has the following shortcomings and cannot meet industrial needs: (1) Most of the existing bearing performance sample data are based on simplified bearing physical models, such as ignoring viscosity-temperature characteristics and bearing thermal elastic deformation, resulting in insufficient accuracy of bearing performance sample data and the failure of AI models to conduct accuracy verification; (2) Existing samples cover fewer bearing parameters, especially tilting pad bearings, which are the most widely used in the industry. They fail to fully cover bearing structure, operating conditions, lubricant viscosity, oil supply methods, etc. The predicted bearing characteristics are also very limited, and most of them are based on pressure distribution and load-bearing capacity prediction. The relatively small number of input and output nodes makes the AI model too simple; (3) The relevant AI predictions only stay at the bearing performance prediction under fixed parameters and fail to carry out AI-based bearing structure parameter optimization for real rotor-bearing systems.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fast, accurate and effective reduced-order model to replace complex traditional numerical calculation methods based on empirical formulas or finite element / finite difference methods, so as to improve the efficiency and accuracy of bearing performance parameter prediction and solve the above technical problems.
