Fatigue resistance investigation of the SnCu6 overlay in plain bearings working under conditions of rotary loading
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2010, Vol 233, Issue 5
Abstract
Fatigue resistance of a three-layer slide bearing has been investigated on the MWO test stand in which rotary loading to the test bearing is generated. The bearing material consisted of the bronze (CuPb22Sn3 + thin overlay of SnCu6 plated) sintered to the steel shell. Each of the tested bearing was subjected to the standard 20–hour test under conditions of full fluid lubrication. The methodology of the experiments, metallurgical test results and fractographic description of the lining crack–zone are presented. The values of the fatigue strength parameters were estimated as well.<br/><br/>

THE INFLUENCE OF ELECTROLYTIC-PLASMA NITRIDING ON THE STRUCTURE AND TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF HIGH-SPEED STEELS
The effect of the electrolytic-plasma nitriding on a structure and tribological properties of the R9, R6M5 and R18 type high-speed steels (HSS) has been investigated. It is shown that, after this treatment at the tempera...
EXPERIMENTAL STUDY OF DIFFERENT SUPPLY DESIGNS IN HYDRODYNAMIC THRUST BEARINGS
Hydrodynamic thrust bearings have considerable power losses, and in modern designs lubricated oil is cooled in external systems. After the cooling, oil is pumped back to the bearing housing, most frequently to the space...
THE INFLUENCE OF ADDED WATER ON FUEL INJECTOR WEAR IN A DIESEL ENGINE
The article presents the problem of the wear of the components of injection apparatus of a self-ignition engine during the addition of water. The observer was subject to an injector from the KIPOR KDE3500E generator set...
PROPERTIES OF CUTTING TOOLS WITH CERAMIC/CERAMIC MULTILAYERS
Cutting tools for High Speed Machining (HSM) work under high stress and in high temperature. Additional machining processes are lead without cutting fluids that cause significant wear on the tool rake face. These high me...
CHALLENGES AND METHODS IN ANALYZES OF THE HEAT TRANSFER IN POLYMER DRY BEARINGS
Heat generation and dissipation in dry polymer bearings are important aspects in their design and operation, because the overheating may lead to fast wear or product damage. The estimation of the maximum temperature unde...
