To solve the problem of shaft system inclination in the actual operation of marine tilting-pad thrust bearing
a thermo-elasto-hydro-dynamic(TEHD)model of tilting-pad thrust bearing is established
and the influence of inclination state on the static and dynamic performances of the bearing is studied. Firstly
a mathematical model is proposed to describe the inclination state with two parameters of inclined angle and axis projection angle. Then
the static and dynamic characteristics of the bearing are solved by combining the TEHD model and the axial oil film stiffness and damping coefficient solution model. Finally
the influences of inclined angle and axis projection angle on the static and dynamic characteristics of tilting-pad thrust bearing are analy-ed. The static performance parameters include load
minimum oil film thickness
maximum oil film pressure and maximum oil film temperature; and the dynamic performance parameters include axial oil film stiffness and damping coefficien
