Want this question answered?
it is the bearing that holds the shafts while it is rotating.
Due to the pressure rise developed through the impeller, a pressure difference exists across the hubs and covers such that the impellers have a net thrust in the direction of the compressor inlet. The balance piston counteracts that by being located behind the last impeller. This is accomplished by subjecting the outboard side of the balance piston to a low pressure from the inlet side of the compressor thereby creating a pressure differential opposite to the direction of the impellers. This pressure is acheived by connecting the area behind the piston to the inlet using a line. The impeller thrust not balanced by the balace piston is absorbed by the thrust bearings. I hope this helps
from direction of rotation
Thrust bearings are a type of rotary bearing designed to support a high axial load while allowing movement between two parts. There are many types of thrust bearings, but they are typically used for automotive assemblies, particularly in wheel hubs and manual transmissions.
Thrust pads are used to protect the steam turbine rotor from damage due to axial displacement due to axial thrust created by entry of steam in the turbine. generaly the pads clearence is 0.45mm for a bearing size 250mm.
A thrust bearing is located as one of the main bearings on the crankshaft. It maintains crankshaft end play.
it is the bearing that holds the shafts while it is rotating.
The thrust bearing is located in the crankshaft journal. usually in the center main cap. Although sometimes toward the front or rear it is recognizable, the only main bearing with sides.
thrust bearing is located on the transmission shaft in the bell housing,sometimes called a throw out bearing. its use is to operate the clutch
Yes
there are many types of bearings .... 1)ball bearing 2)roller bearing 3)ball thrust bearing 4)roller thrust bearing & 5)tapered roller thrust..
You can tell if the main thrust bearing is bad by simply checking out the oil. If you notice little metal particles, chances are the thrust bearing has spoiled.

roller thrust bearing
Turbine thrust bearing active and inactive temperature is the blade in the turbine trust bearing is actual temperature change, which mitigates the active or inactive bearing.
thrust bearing takes axial loads radial bearing takes radial loads axis is line about which races or ring rotate
These two bearings are generally used in Mechanical equipments. Industrial machinery with high power and high loads, such as steam turbines, centrifugal compressors, pumps and motors, utilize journal bearings as rotor supports. One of the basic purposes of a bearing is to provide a frictionless environment to support and guide a rotating shaft. A thrust bearing is a type of Rotary bearing. They permit rotation between parts, but they are designed to support a high AXIAL load For more information, you can take help of search engines. Thrust Bearing keeps a check on the Axial Movement, ie. horizontal movement. The bearings plays a cushioning role for the shaft movement axially. Journal bearings aligns the rotor and it will cushion the radial movement
