Dynamic friction and wear in a planar-contact encapsulated microball bearing using an integrated microturbine

The demonstration and characterization of a novel planar-contact encapsulated microball bearing using a radial in-flow microturbine are presented. Stable operation of the air-driven silicon microturbine is shown for over 1 000 000 revolutions at speeds, pressure drops, and flow rates of up to 10 000...
