Abstract:
An improved film damper oil delivery pathway from an oil reservoir to a thin film fluidic damper is provided. An oil supply tube may be configured to mate to a bearing outer race. The bearing outer race may comprise internal oil flow circuit(s) configured to supply oil from the oil tube to the thin film damper for improved bearing compartment designs.
