It is reported by many researchers that the textured bearing surfaces, where many tiny micro-pockets or enclosed recesses were incorporated, can enhance the load support and reduce friction force. Recently, the basic lubrication mechanism of micro-pocketed parallel surfaces are explained in terms of "inlet suction" using continuity equation and simply cavitation condition. However, it is required that more actual cavitation condition in the pocket region should be applied to estimate exact bearing performance. In this paper, a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, FLUENT is used to investigate the exact lubrication characteristics of infinitely long slider bearing with micro-pockets. The results show that the pressure distributions are highly affected by pocket depths, its positions and numbers. The numerical method adopted in this paper and results can be use in optimal design of textured sliding bearings.
