Theoretical and experimental studies of the effect of clearance and geometry in hydrodynamic journal bearings

This study is concerned with oil lubricated, hydrodynamic journal bearings. A test rig was developed which allowed measurements of film pressure, film thickness and journal surface temperature, from the rotating journal. In addition to this it allowed the more commonly measured variables of bearing...
