Presentation / Conference Contribution
Singh, K., Sharabi, M., Ambrose, S., Eastwick, C., & Jefferson-Loveday, R. J. (2019, June). Prediction of Film Thickness of an Aero-Engine Bearing Chamber using Coupled VOF and Thin Film Model. Presented at ASME Turbo Expo 2019 Turbomachinery Technical Conference & Exposition, Phoenix, Arizona, United States

In the present work, a coupled volume-of-fluid (VOF) model with Eulerian thin-film model (ETFM) approach is used to predict the film thickness in an aero-engine bearing chamber. Numerical studies are conducted for a wide range of shaft speeds with lu... Read More about Prediction of Film Thickness of an Aero-Engine Bearing Chamber using Coupled VOF and Thin Film Model.

Assessment of an Enhanced Thin Film Model to Capture Wetting and Drying Behavior in an Aero-Engine Bearing Chamber (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Singh, K., Sharabi, M., Ambrose, S., Eastwick, C., Jefferson-Loveday, R., Cao, J., & Jacobs, A. (2019, June). Assessment of an Enhanced Thin Film Model to Capture Wetting and Drying Behavior in an Aero-Engine Bearing Chamber. Presented at ASME Turbo Expo 2019 Turbomachinery Technical Conference & Exposition, Phoenix, Arizona, United States

In the present work, a wetting and drying model is coupled with Eulerian Thin-Film model (ETFM) to analyze the wetting and drying behavior inside the bearing chamber. In the enhanced model, an additional source term is included to account for the con...
