The inlet pressure build-up at the leading edge of bearings and its effects on the static performances are investigated theoretically. The performance analyses of air-lubricated tilting pad bearings are carried out considering the inlet pressure which is obtained by means of momentum conservation method. The results show that inlet pressure is above atmosphere pressure in front of leading edge of tilting pad bearing and there is a significant influence of the inlet pressure on the performance of bearings.

Experiments are conducted to investigate the effects of distance between pads on the film pressure and the inlet pressure build-up at the entrance of pad bearings. The inlet pressure and the film pressure are measured by manometers in several cases of the distance between pads. The experimental results are also compared with the theoretical results which are calculated using the several methods for the estimation of the inlet pressure. In the experimental results , the distance between pads has a large influence on the film pressure and the inlet pressure build-up a bearing entrance. It is also shown that the effects of the inlet pressure on the film pressure are remarkable, although inertia parameter is a little higher (${\ge}0.05$).

The performance of small cyclone is analysed by an experiment for the purpose of developing a bag-less vacuum cleaner. For the high collection efficiency and low pressure loss cyclone, the effect of cyclone inlet feature must be well understood. Four types of the helical inlet are considered to compare with the normal tangential inlet, and also various inlet velocities are used to each inlet type. Based on the reference dimension, each type of inlet shows the changes of the grade efficiency and pressure loss which determine the cyclone quality. The results show that the helical inlet has the smaller cut-size but bigger pressure loss than the tangential inlet. And the degree of opening area influences factors of cyclone performance. As the inlet velocity is increased, the cut-size becomes smaller and the pressure loss becomes bigger of each cyclone. Further studies are required to understand the optimized helical inlet of cyclone.

The inlet pressure build-up at the leading edge of bearings which have discontinuous lubrication surface is analyzed theoretically. The analyses of Inlet pressure build-up is obtained by means of full Navier-stokes equations. Beam-warming method is used to solve navier-stokes equations. The results show that inlet pressure is above atmosphere pressure in front of leading edge of hearing.

본 연구에서는 부채꼴형 유한폭 패드베어링에서의 선단압력을 구하기 위하여 3차원 유동모델을 제시하였으며, 이 유동모델을 기초로 하여 구해진 선단압력을 패드 선단에서의 압력경계조건으로 사용하여 유막내의 압력을 구하고 베어링의 하중지지능 력, 마찰토오크 및 윤활유량등을 계산함으로써 베어링의 성능을 해석하였다. 그 결 과 선단 압력이 크게 발생하는 운전조건일수록 선단압력을 무시한 종래의 베어링 성능 해석결과와는 상당한 차이가 있었으며, 특히 관성계수가 큰 운전조건에서 사용되는 피 봇식 추력베어링에서는 선단압력의 영향으로 인하여 하중지지능력을 최대로하는 피봇 점의 위치가 패드 선단부쪽으로 크게 이동되었다.

In order to evaluate the inlet pressure correctly, the full Navier-Stokes equations are solved numerically for the computational domain which covers the cavity region between pads as well as the bearing film. A nonuiform grid system is adopted to reduce the number of grid points, and the numerical solutions are obtained for a wide range of Reynolds number in laminar regime with various values of the distance between pads. The numerical results show that the inlet pressure is significantly affected by Reynolds number and the distance between pads. An expression for the loss coefficient in terms of Reynolds number and non-dimensional distance between pads is obtained on the basis of the numerical results. It is found that the inlet pressure over the whole range of numerical solutions can be fairly accurately estimated by applying the formula for the loss coefficient to the extended Bernoulli equation.

An experimental study has been conducted to investigate the suction performance of a designed inlet. Total pressure distortion in the inlet S-duct was measured and the effect of lip thickness and throat area was analyzed. The volume flow rate of air into the turbojet engine was controlled to observe the effect of engine RPM to the total pressure distortion. The pressure data from 36 air tubes were obtained using scanivalve, pressure transducer, and visicoder system.

A three-dimensional computation was conducted to make a study about effects of the inlet boundary layer thickness on the total pressure loss in a low-speed axial compressor operating at the design condition ($\phi=85\%$) and near stall condition($\phi=65\%$). Differences of the tip leakage flow and hub corner-stall induced by the inlet boundary layer thickness enable the loss distribution of total pressure along the span to be altered. At design condition, total pressure losses for two different inlet boundary layers are almost alike in the core flow region but the larger loss is generated at both hub and tip when the inlet boundary layer is thin. At the near stall condition, however, total pressure loss fer the thick inlet boundary layer is found to be greater than that for the thin inlet boundary layer on most of the span except the region near hub and casing. Total pressure loss is scrutinized through three major loss categories in a subsonic axial compressor such as profile loss, tip leakage loss and endwall loss using Denton's loss model, and effects of the inlet boundary layer thickness on the loss structure are analyzed in detail.

Flows in a ramjet inlet is simulated for the study of the rocket-ramjet transition. The flow is unsteady, two-dimensional axisymmetric, compressible and turbulent. Double time marching method is used for the unsteady calculation and HLLC method is used as a higher order MUSCL method. As for turbulent calculation, $\kappa-\omega$ SST model is used for more accurate viscous calculations. Sinusoidal pressure perturbation is given at the exit and the flow fields at the inlet is studied. The cruise condition as well as the ground test condition are considered. The pressure level for the ground test condition is relatively low and the effect of the pressure perturbation at the combustion chamber is small. The normal shock at the cruise condition is very sensitive to the pressure perturbation and can be easily detached from the cowl when the exit pressure is relatively high. The sudden decrease in the mass flux is observed when the inlet flow becomes subcritical, which can make the inlet incapable. The amplitude of travelling pressure waves becomes larger as the downstream pressure increases, and the wavelength becomes shorter as Mach number increases. The phase difference of the travelling perturbed pressure wave in space is 180 degree.

The thermohydrodynamic(THD) performance of a large tilting pad journal bearing is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. The theory takes into account the three dimensional variation of lubricant viscosity and eddy viscosity, and the inlet pressure. Owing to the inlet pressure effect, the film pressure and load capacity are increased but the mixing temperature and bearing surface temperature are decreased. The continuous distribution of the film pressure and film thickness and the bearing surface temperature are measured along with the shaft speed and the bearing load, and they are compared with the theoretical results. The results obtained by the experiment are in good agreement with those by the theory including the inlet pressure effect. It is suggested that the three dimensional turbulent THD analysis including the inlet pressure effect is very useful to predict the performance of the large tilting pad journal bearing more accurately.
