Double helical gear
This is wrong because it has all the gears are driven.
To prevent excessive axial movement of the rotor.
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.
axial shift of a steam turbine is the shifting of turbine rotor in the forward and backward direction due to steam thrust on blades of rotor.
axial thrust acting on the arch causes rib shortening. the arch becomes deeper and hence reduces the horizontal thrust...
Axial Thrust is a force that is generated in an axial direction which is by definition along the shaft
This is wrong because it has all the gears are driven.
herring bone gear (Double helical ) doesn't axial thrust
to mitigate the axial thrust.
To prevent excessive axial movement of the rotor.
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.
The thrust pads will be there at the front or non drive end of the turbine side....These are usually used to limit the axial displacement of the rotor( Means to minimize the movement of rotor axially in order to maintain the axial clearance between the moving blades and the fixed blades of steam turbine rotor).....
A Herringbone Gear consists of a pair of helical gears, arranged so that they form a vee shaped tooth. Thus there is no axial load, and no need for an axial bearing.This is also the origin of the vee shape in the radiator grille of the Citroen car. For Andre Citroen was involved in the manufacture of such gears.
An axial bearing is a type of bearing designed to support loads primarily in the axial direction, or along the shaft's axis. It allows for rotational movement while accommodating forces that act parallel to the shaft, such as thrust loads. Common types of axial bearings include thrust ball bearings and thrust roller bearings, which are used in various applications, including automotive and industrial machinery, to reduce friction and wear. Their design helps ensure smooth operation and prolongs the life of rotating components.
axial shift of a steam turbine is the shifting of turbine rotor in the forward and backward direction due to steam thrust on blades of rotor.
The purpose of a thrust main bearing is to support the axial load and limit the axial movement of the crankshaft in an engine. It ensures proper alignment and stability during operation, preventing excessive wear and damage. By absorbing forces generated during the combustion process, the thrust bearing helps maintain consistent engine performance and longevity.
A thrust bearing is designed to handle axial loads (parallel to the shaft), while a radial bearing is designed to handle radial loads (perpendicular to the shaft). These bearings have different internal structures to accommodate their respective load types. Thrust bearings usually have a series of balls or rollers to support axial loads, whereas radial bearings have a raceway to support radial loads.
