5. Hybrid bearings in turbulent conditions

In a hydrodynamic bearing, turbulence is essentially due to the shaft rotational speed (see article Hydrodynamic thrust bearings). , in a hybrid bearing it may be due to high cell pressure.

5.1 Basic relationships

The pressure field is obtained by solving the Reynolds equation:

\frac{\partial}{\partial x} (\frac{h^{3}}{{μk}_{x}} \frac{\partial p}{\partial x}) + \frac{\partial}{\partial z} (\frac{h^{3}}{}
