Abstract:
The method is used for uniforming temperature in a shaft supported by a fluid bearing during rotation of the shaft; a journal portion of the shaft is located inside the fluid bearing; at least one passage is provided inside the shaft at least along the journal portion so to cross it; at least one flow of heat-exchange fluid is established in the at least one passage; the method allows to overcome the problems due to the “Morton effect”. A bearing system implementing the method is advantageously used in a turbomachine.

Claim (Index 13):
The bearing system of  claim 11 , wherein a pitch of the or each passage is equal to a number of times the axial length of the fluid bearing), the number of times being in the range from 10.0 to 0.1, preferably from 4.0 to 0.25, more preferably from 2.0 to 0.5.
