Abstract:
Disclosed is a fluid damping system for a planetary traction drive designed for a driven turbocharger on an engine. The planetary traction drive has a plurality of double roller planets that are each supported by two planet hearings, one at each end of the double roller planet. Each planet bearing has a fluid damping system that consists of a radial squeeze film damper that feeds fluid to an axial squeeze film damper to absorb vibrations and dissipate kinetic energy in the planetary traction drive.
