Air Bearing Seminar Report
The PDF seminar report for Mechanical Engineering students explains the basics of Air Bearings which are also termed as aerostatic or aerodynamic bearings they offer solutions for many high-tech applications where high-performance and high accuracy is required. e.g. Medical, Space, Semiconductor, Hyperloop Technology, etc. Sometimes they are also called Fluid film bearings. In simple terms, air bearings use a thin film of pressurized air to support a load and have no solid-to-solid contact under typical running conditions; instead, pressurized air or a film of lubricating fluid forms a layer between the solid machine elements and serves to transfer forces from one to the other. The major advantages of Air Bearings are that they help to avoid the traditional bearing-related problems of friction, wear, particulates, and lubricant handling, and also they offer distinct advantages in precision positioning and high-speed applications.
The Seminar Report covers the topics like types, working principles, use of air bearings in an ultra-precision spindle, material selection, load capacity analysis, etc. Air Bearings are also based on ceramic composites which allow an equal air distribution on the bearing surface in comparison with conventional orifice bearings. At last, the seminar report discusses the major advantages and comparison with other bearings and current applications and conceptual applications such as in Hyperloop where they used air-bearing skis, with an air compressor to provide air.
