Summary:For the need of high speed and load capacity of precision industry, a bearing used in a high speed spindle is studied. The hydrodynamic bearing composed a hydrodynamic bearing made of porous material and several hydrostatic chambers with an external oil system. The hydrodynamic bearing is pressurized with oil chamber and supports the spindle shaft both at rest and at rotation state. Because of the external pressure and the property of porous material, the load capacity of hydraulic bearing can be promoted without decreasing precision. To consider the relationship of parameters, we applied the Reynolds equation and Darcy’s law to describe the flow of the oil film between bearing and spindle shaft.
