ABSTRACT:
A spring-mounted thrust bearing having pads that are immersed in lubricant and provided with coolant-distributing grooves in the face of each thrust pad is combined with a high pressure pumping means connected to force a flow of coolant between the thrust pad bearing surfaces and an associated runner surface in a high volume that is between 1/3 and 1/2 the flow rate of lubricant that is swept between those surfaces by normal relative rotation of the surfaces.
