Popis: In this study, in order to reveal the influence mechanism of bearing parameters on pneumatic hammering, an aerostatic bearing with a multi-orifice-type restrictor is analyzed. Firstly, the flow field is investigated, and the vortex-induced excitation is discussed in both the frequency and time domains. Then, the frequency-related displacement impedance is analyzed, and the effects of vortex-induced excitation on pneumatic hammering are discussed. Experiments are also conducted for verification. Moreover, the influence of damping on pneumatic hammering is identified. The results show that with larger damping, the risk of pneumatic hammering can be reduced. Finally, the impacts of design parameters on the damping are discussed in detail using an approximate model. Design optimization is considered to achieve the maximum damping, i.e., the minimum risk of pneumatic hammering. The results show that both the air supply pressure and the pocket volume should be minimized. The analysis process provides a reference for the design of bearings to reduce pneumatic hammering.
