The aim of this work is to study the transient thermoelastohydrodynamic behavior of the tilting-pad thrust bearing during its start-up. The theoretical analysis of bearing performance is based on a three dimensional transient TEHD model. The effects of the running time and load on the bearing’s performance are studied. The results show that the above factors influence the performance of the bearing significantly.
