Foil bearing support for high-speed rotor

High speed rotors are supported initially by flexible metal foil and then on an air film generated by a self-acting hydrodynamic effect. The flexibility of the bearing enables it to conform and deflect locally, wear is less severe, self-alignment and accommodation of thermal distortion is permitted.
