This invention relates to the field of sliding bearing
simulation and optimization technology, and more specifically to a high-precision
simulation and optimization design method for hydrostatic thrust sliding bearings. It establishes an efficient decoupling model of the fluid-
solid-thermal three-
physics field of the hydrostatic thrust sliding bearing, decomposing the overall thermodynamic field into two subfields, which are coupled with the fluid force field and the
solid force field, respectively. Then, it constructs a gap
oil film flow / thermal field model and a friction pair deformation
solid / thermal field model, achieving equivalent
coupling through data transfer. The
oil film control equations are iteratively solved to obtain
oil film pressure, temperature, and flow velocity; the friction pair equations, including elastic constitutive and
thermal strain equations, are solved to obtain their elastic and thermal deformations, with bidirectional data transfer achieving coupled iteration. Based on the above method, simulations are performed, establishing sub-models of oil film flow and friction pair deformation, using local interpolation and dynamic meshing to process the interface; the oil cavity is optimized based on the
simulation results,
parametric analysis is used to establish the mapping between structural parameters and
lubrication performance, the objective function and constraints are defined, and the optimal oil cavity structure is obtained through algorithms.
