Resumo
Turbine and bushing bearing are the most critical components of high-speed machines. This paper describes the design of a
high-speed turbine supported by hydrodynamic bearings. The mathematical dimensioning and the FEM analysis are presented
to validate the mechanical strength of the turbine and the bushing bearing models. Fatigue life and factor of safety are also
determined. The simulations show that the maximum von Mises stress values obtained are associated with the centrifugal
force generated by the system rotational movement. The results variation is mainly due to the properties of the materials
proposed. For the turbine, 7075-T6 aluminum alloy and SAE 4340 steel obtained satisfactory behavior under a constant
operating speed of 30,000 RPM. For the hydrodynamic bearing, the TM23 bronze alloy exhibited excellent results, without
fracture, and low mechanical deformation. The models exhibited a great potential employment in several applications, such
as biogas systems to generate electrical energy, and educational test bench for thermodynamic and tribological simulations.
