Substituting these conditions in Eq.

The equation shows that the velocity distribution across the film (from y = 0 to y = h) is obtained by superposing a parabolic distribution onto a linear distribution. Figure 12–10 shows the superposition of these distributions to obtain the velocity for particular values of x and dp/dx. In general, the parabolic term may be additive or subtractive to the linear term, depending upon the sign of the pressure gradient. When the pressure is maximum, dp/dx = 0 and the velocity is u = U h y (g) which is a linear relation. We next define Q as the volume of lubricant flowing in the x direction per unit time. By using a width of unity in the z direction, the volume may be obtained by the expression Q = h 0 u dy (h) Substituting the value of u from Eq.

Unless a filter is provided, this debris accumulates. Such particles have to be free to tumble at the section containing the minimum film thickness without snagging in a togglelike configuration, creating additional damage and debris. Trumpler, an accomplished bearing designer, provides a throat of at least 200 μin to pass particles from ground surfaces.7 He also provides for the influence of size (tolerances tend to increase with size) by stipulating h0 ≥ 0.0002 + 0.000 04d in (a) where d is the journal diameter in inches. A lubricant is a mixture of hydrocarbons that reacts to increasing temperature by vaporizing the lighter components, leaving behind the heavier. This process (bearings have lots of time) slowly increases the viscosity of the remaining lubricant, which increases heat generation rate and elevates lubricant temperatures. This sets the stage for future failure. For light oils, Trumpler limits the maximum film temperature Tmax to Tmax ≤ 250◦ F (b) Some oils can operate at slightly higher temperatures. Always check with the lubricant manufacturer. A journal bearing often consists of a ground steel journal working against a softer, usually nonferrous, bushing. In starting under load there is metal-to-metal contact, abrasion, and the generation of wear particles, which, over time, can change the geometry of the bushing. The starting load divided by the projected area is limited to Wst l D ≤ 300 psi (c) If the load on a journal bearing is suddenly increased, the increase in film temperature in the annulus is immediate. Since ground vibration due to passing trucks, trains, and earth tremors is often present, Trumpler used a design factor of 2 or more on the running load, but not on the starting load of Eq. (c): nd ≥ 2 (d) Many of Trumpler’s designs are operating today, long after his consulting career is over; clearly they constitute good advice to the beginning designer. 12–8 The Relations of the Variables Before proceeding to the problem of design, it is necessary to establish the relationships between the variables.
