Job Description

- Design journal and thrust bearings for steam/gas turbines and large rotating machinery.

- Perform bearing sizing, clearance, preload, and lubrication calculations based on load, speed, and thermal conditions.

- Conduct rotor dynamic, thermal, and tribological analyses to ensure bearing system reliability and stability.

- Select appropriate bearing materials, coatings, and lubrication strategies for high-speed and high-temperature environments.

- Integrate bearing systems with rotor and lube oil systems to ensure optimal performance.

Define bearing instrumentation requirements (RTDs, vibration probes, proximity sensors) for condition monitoring

- Design turning gear systems including gearboxes, clutches, motors, and drive interfaces for large rotating equipment.

Perform sizing and torque calculations based on rotor mass, breakaway torque, and speed requirements

- Specify motor ratings, braking systems, and controls for turning gear applications.

- Interface with turbine controls team to define operational logic (local/remote, permissive, interlocks).

Ensure compatibility of turning gear system with turbine casing and rotor layouts

- Design bearing pedestals and support structures to ensure rigid, aligned, and vibration-isolated support.

- Define geometry, mounting, and hold-down details to accommodate thermal growth and dynamic loading.

- Perform structural and vibration analysis to validate stiffness, load paths, and dynamic response.

Account for foundation, grouting, anchor bolt layout, and maintenance access in design

- Good knowledge on mechanical concepts like thermal engineering and fluid mechanics.

Tools experience: AutoCAD, NX, Enovia PLM or similar

Prepare 2D/3D CAD models, design documentation, specifications, and calculation reports
