The paper presents the application of a compliant foil bearing for estimation of the thrust force in a single stage radial blower under operational conditions.The bump foil of the thrust bearing behaves as a nonlinear spring.The knowledge of the spring deflection curve allows estimation of the actual Inter- and transdisciplinary scenario construction to explore future land-use options in southern Amazonia thrust force for a measured bump deflection at the given rotational speed.To acquire the deflection curve, static calibration of the axial shaft displacement sensor was performed.During the calibration, the information about voltage signals of the sensor for the given loading force was collected.
The measured voltage values at different speeds and loadswere then converted into the thrust force.The results were verified by comparison to the thrust force resulting Mouvement vivant et architecture: la marche, les escaliers chez Émile Jaques-Dalcroze et Adolphe Appia from the pressure distribution on the impeller.
