Abstract
An experimental investigation of the pressure distribution of air in radial flow between parallel plates was conducted. Data were collected on the pressure distribution, mass rate of flow of air and film thickness. Variations were made in the load applied to the upper plate, stagnation pressure at the air supply hole, and the upper plate geometry. Two upper plates having the same outside diameters but different supply hole diameters were employed.
