Abstract
A bearing device supports a shaft of a gas turbine engine. A first support disk is mounted to the bearing housing element. First tilting pads are tiltably arranged one after another along a circumferential direction at the first support disk. A second support disk is mounted to the bearing housing element spaced apart from the first support disk along an axial direction. Second tilting pads are tiltably arranged one after another along the circumferential direction at the second support disk. A first number of the first tilting pads is greater than the half of a second number of the second tilting pads but smaller than the second number of the second tilting pads.
