For swash plate-type piston pumps and motors, because of the large radial loads, fluid film lubrication is difficult to establish between the piston and cylinder wall only with hydrodynamic effects. In this paper, the design method of the piston with hydrostatic pads around which the fluid film can be formed is derived, and the effects of operational conditions and pad dimensions on the film formation are numerically shown.
