THE DEVELOPMENT OF A GAS LUBRICATED BEARING BLOWER ASSEMBLY FOR USE IN AN AN/TED-9 RADIO TRANSMITTER.

Abstract

A modification to the present contract has resulted in a change in program objectives regarding the gas lubricated blower to be developed. In lieu of cooling an AN/SRT-15 transmitter, a blower will be developed for cooling an AN/TED-9 transmitter. Transmitter evaluations have commenced to establish the design parameters for the gas bearing blower and electronic converter package. Test rig investigations have been conducted to determine the effect of bearing geometry variations on the bearing performance of a cylindrical journal bearing. Several evaluations were also conducted on repulsive type permanent magnet thrust bearings. (Author)
