This paper describes the manufacturing process of tilting pad gas bearing with a diameter of 5 mm and a length of 0.5-1 mm for power MEMS (Micro Electomechanical Systems) applications. The bearing compacts with nanopowder feedstock were prepared by Ni-metal mold with 2-mold system using LIGA process. The effect of the manufacturing conditions on sintering properties of nanopowder gas bearing was investigated. In this work, Fe-45 wt%Ni nanopowder with an average diameter of 30-50 nm size was used as starting material. After mixing the nanopowder and the wax-based binders, the amount of powder was controlled to obtain the certain mixing ratio. The nanopowder bearing compacts were sintered with 1-2 hr holding time under hydrogen atmospheres and under temperatures of $600^{\circ}C$ to $1,000^{\circ}C$. Finally, the critical batch of mixed powder system was found to be 70% particle fraction in total volume. The maximum density of the sintered bearing specimen was about 94% of theoretical density.

High velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spray coating of WC-metal powder (powder) was carried out to improve the resistances of friction, wear and corrosion of magnetic bearing shaft material Inconel718 (In718) of turbo blower. A micron sized WC-metal powder (86.5% WC, 9.5% Co 4% Cr) was coated onto In718 surface using HVOF thermal spraying. During the spraying, the binder metals and alloy such as Co, Cr and Co-Cr alloy were molten and a small portion of WC particles were partially decomposed to $W_2C$ and free carbon at above its decomposition temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$. The free carbon and excessively sprayed oxygen formed carbon oxide gases, resulting a porous coating of porosity of $2.2{\pm}0.3%$. The surface hardness of substrate increased approximately three times from 400 Hv of In718 to $1260{\pm}30Hv$ of the coating The friction coefficients of the coating were approximately $0.33{\pm}0.03$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and $0.26{\pm}0.03$ at $450^{\circ}C$. These values were smaller than those of In718 substrate at both temperatures due to the lubrication from the free carbon and the cobalt oxide debris. The corrosion resistance of the coating was higher than that of In718 both in salt water of 3.5% NaCl and acid of 1 M HCl solutions, on the contrary, it was lower in base solution of 1 M NaOH. According to this study, the HVOF WC-metal powder coating is recommended for the durability improvement of magnetic bearing shaft of turbo blower.

The hydrostatic slipper bearing is generally used in high pressure axial piston pumps to support the load generated from two surfaces which are sliding relatively at low speed. The object of the bearing is to remove the possibility of direct contact by maintenance of an adequate oil film thickness between two metal surfaces. Because the bearing performance is influenced by the bearing deformation, it is highly dependent on the injection pressure, the bearing surface profile and so on. In this study, the deformation characteristics of a hydrostatic slipper bearing is investigated according to the injection pressure by the finite element analysis. In the analysis, the special boundary condition to take the fluid-structure interaction (FSI) into account is used on the interactive surface. The results, such as bearing deformation, stress and lifting force, obtained from the fully coupled analysis are compared with those from the single step sequential method.

Centrifugal casting is suitable for producing hollow-products using centrifugal force. Bush type metal bearings are the key parts that facilitate the rotational movement of various machinery. Metal bearings produced by conventional centrifugal casting machines show rotational imbalance. Therefore, after injecting a large amount of material, the product's precision is secured in the secondary processing. Rotational imbalance is caused by the force acting on the rotary disc plate. In order to minimize rotational imbalance, NASTRAN was used for the optimal design and structural analysis. It was concluded that the rotating plate of the conventional centrifugal casting machine should be prevented from tilting. For this purpose, the location & thickness of the stiffeners were obtained through the optimum design. In the conventional centrifugal casting machine, both ends of the product are lower in temperature than the center part, so internal stress occurs. This solves this problem by inserting a heating coil into the rotating plate.

터보/컴프레셔(Turbo compressor)용 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링(Tilting pad journal bearing)은 고속, 고하중의 주축(Rotor)을 지지하는 역할을 하며, 화이트 메탈(White metal)이 대표적인 소재로 널리 사용되어왔다. 그러나 예기치 않은 윤활유 공급 중단 상황(Oil cut situation) 또는 베어링과 주축 사이에 유막(Oil film)이 제대로 형성되지 않을 경우, 기존의 화이트 메탈 베어링은 융착(Seizure) 현상에 의해 바로 정지하게 되고 주축에 심각한 손상을 유발한다. 이러한 융착 문제를 해결하기 위해 기존의 화이트 메탈에 비해 높은 비강성, 비강도 그리고 뛰어난 마찰 특성(Tribological characteristic)을 가지는 탄소섬유 강화 복합재료(Carbon fiber reinforced composite)가 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링에 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 고 내열성 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링의 오일공급 중단 상황에서의 내구성에 대한 연구를 진행하였다. 이를 위해 상온 및 오일공급 중단상황의 고온에서 인장, 압축, 전단 등의 기초적인 복합재료 물성 실험을 진행하였고, 복합재료 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링에 있어 가장 중요한 물성인 층간 계면 강도를 측정하기 위해 Short Beam Shear 실험을 진행 하였다. 오일 공급 중단 상황에서 복합재료 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링의 파손(Failure) 가능성을 알아보기 위해 유한 요소 해석(Finite element analysis)을 진행함으로써 베어링 표면에 가해지는 최대 응력을 도출하였고, 해석 결과와 물성 시험으로부터 측정된 강도 값을 이용하여 Tsai-Wu Failure index를 계산하였다. 해석 결과를 검증하기 위해 산업용 테스트 벤치를 이용하여 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료로 제조된 틸팅 패드 저널 베어링의 오일 공급 중단 실험을 진행하였다.

The small precision spindle motors in the high value-added products including the visible home appliances such as DLP projector require not only the energy conversion devices but also high efficiency, low vibration and sound operation. However, the spindle motors using the conventional ball bearing and sintered porous metal bearing have following problems, respectively: the vibration by the irregularity of balls and the short motor life cycle by the ball's abrasion and higher sound noises by dry contact between shaft and sleeve. In this paper, it is proposed that the spindle motor with a fluid dynamic bearing is suitable for the motor to drive the color wheel of the DLP(digital lightening processor) in the visible home appliances. The proposed spindle motor is composed of the fluid dynamic bearing with both the radial force and the thrust force. The fluid dynamic bearing is solved by the finite element analysis of the mechanical field with the Reynolds equations. The magnetic part of spindle motor, which is a type of Brushless DC Motor, is designed by the electro-magnetic field analysis coupled with the Maxwell equation. And the load capacity and the friction loss of fluid dynamic bearing are analyzed to bearing clearance variation by the fabrication error in designed motor. The design of the proposed motor is implemented by the load torque caused by the eccentricity and the unbalance of the fluid dynamic bearing when the motors are fabricated in error. The prototype of the motor with the fluid dynamic bearing is manufactured, and experiment results show the vibration, sound, and phase current at no load and color wheel load of the motors in comparison. The high performance characteristics with the low vibration, the low acoustic noise and the optimal mechanical structure are verified by the experimental results.

In this study, a hybrid composite journal bearing composed of carbon fiber reinforced phenolic composite liner and metal backing was manufactured to solve the seizure problem of metallic journal bearing materials because the carbon fiber has self-lubricating ability and the phenolic resin has thermal resistance characteristics. To estimate the wear resistance of carbon fiber phenolic composite, wear tests were performed at several pressures and velocities. The oil absorption characteristics, coefficient of thermal expansion, strength and stiffness of the composite were also tested. Using the measured stiffness values, the thermal residual stresses in the composite were calculated to check the reliability of the composite journal bearing.

To investigate impact property characteristics on the low temperature plate weld metal, the two different plates of the same steel grade were welded and evaluated by Mo bearing and no Mo containing welding consumables. The results are summarized as follows; 1) Multi pass welded Mo bearing weldment was not satisfied with the requirement of tensile strength, while no Mo containing one was satisfied with it 2) In the plate butt weldment, the impact property of weld metal was highly affected by both the welding consumable and plate.
