ANALYSIS OF BEARING CLEARANCE AND WIDTH OF AN OIL GROOVE ON THE CHARACTERISTIC OF FLUID FILM IN HYDRODYNAMIC MAIN CRANKSHAFT BEARINGS
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2018, Vol 281, Issue 5
Abstract
Paper represents an analysis of the influence of oil groove width and bearing clearance on the characteristics of oil film in a hydrodynamic journal main crankshaft bearing. Analysis was performed to define the influence of bearing clearance and dimensions of oil grooves on static characteristics and manufacturability of half-shelf bearings in industrial high-volume production. Computer simulations were made using an ARTbear program, which was developed in Department of Machine Construction and Vehicle Design in Gdańsk Technical University. The analysis allowed defining the correlation between groove geometry and load capacity and working conditions of bearings. Potential opportunities of possible shortening of production time in high-volume production were also indicated.<br/><br/>
