Abstract: This paper deals with friction and the field of temperature in the lubricant film of journal bearings. Theoretical results regarding the thermal behavior are checked with experimental data and ...

Abstract: When the bearing is running, its clearance is no longer equal to the initial one, as a result of the thermal regime and load. This paper presents a calculation method which takes into ...

Abstract: The temperature distribution in the lubricating film of journal bearings for the three-dimensional case is obtained by using the results already known regarding the pressure distribution in the ...
