    ELASTOHYDRODYNAMIC EFFECTS IN LUBRICATION OF JOURNAL BEARINGS UNDER TURBULENT CONDITIONS
    (2024-01-01) Javorova J.; Andonov I.; Severin T.; Irimescu L.; Rakanov Y.
    The current paper is aimed to investigate the deformability effects of the bearing surface on the lubrication performance of cylindrical journal bearing with finite length under turbulent conditions. The bush is coated with a thin resilient layer with a smooth surface, the radial distortions of which are of the same order of magnitude as the film thickness. The elastohydrodynamic problem is studied under elasticity conditions in accordance with the plain strain hypothesis (Winkler model). The modified Reynolds equation is carried out on the base of the turbulent lubrication model of Hirs (bulk flow model). The partial differential equation is solved numerically by successive over-relaxation technique on a finite difference grid, considering different values of coating materials, lubricant viscosity, and journal speed. Results for the performance characteristics of the bearing are given for several selected values of Reynolds number and elasticity parameters of the soft liner on the bush.

    TOPOLOGY OF GALVANIC ISOLATED BATTERY CHARGING UNIT WITH POWER FACTOR CORRECTION
    (2024-01-01) Rakanov Y.
    The present study investigates topology for battery charging units (BCU) with simple design and power factor correction. It has a galvanic isolation between the grid and the battery, which is one of the law and standard requirements. The impulse transformer ensures galvanic isolation, which makes the topology suitable for onboard electric vehicles (EV) charging units (OBC). The study also presents a simulation model a simulation model with the help of which a simulation is conducted and a result is obtained.
