Dear friends;

Good day. I read that For the tilt pad bearings if oil pressure is low and the oil flow is high there is a sealing problem in gas turbine. What phenomena behind this?

We have four tilt pad bearings in a gas turbine model Centaur 4702. each bearing have 6 pads.

I hope you will favor me on this subject.

Thanking you i will remain.
 
Don't know where you read this, but I'm not aware of this kind of issue. But then you haven't really told us what the application is (journal bearing? or ???).

Have you contacted the OEM or turbine packager for assistance?

Can you tell us what problems, if any, you are experiencing, or what is prompting this question?
