ATTEMPT AT EVALUATING THE INFLUENCE OF BENDING STRESS ON SHAFT WEAR PROCESSES IN WATER LUBRICATED SLIDING BEARING WITH A RUBBER BUSHING

Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2017, Vol 271, Issue 1

Abstract

Water lubricated bearings find increasingly wide application in shipbuilding or the hydropower industry, with the popularity stemming from their numerous advantages. Unfortunately, as it turns out, water lubricated bearings do not always meet expectations, because, on occasion, they become subject to intense, premature wear, which requires costly repair. One of the still unexplained phenomena is the process of excessive bearing wear, in particular, that of shaft journal co-working with rubber bushings. The research goal was to evaluate the influence of shaft bending stress on the degree of its wear. Experimental tests were carried out on a purpose-designed test stand. The results of the first test series confirmed that the shaft bending stresses do have impact on the magnitude of wear.<br/><br/>
