Work from Office

- 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
