Experimental Identification of the Void Fraction in a Large Hydrodynamic Offset Halves Bearing

Experimental Identification of the Void Fraction in a Large Hydrodynamic Offset Halves Bearing

A common approach to optimising hydrodynamic journal bearings for power loss is to reduce the lubricant supply and direct the oil to specific bearing areas where it is needed to guarantee safe operation. This requires information on the processes in the gap and the surrounding pocket areas for both...
