Lubrication Properties

The analytical mobility method for dynamically loaded journal bearings was presented, with the intent to include it in a general computational program, such as the dynamic analysis program, that has been developed for the dynamic analysis of general mechanical systems. An illustrative example and numerical results were presented, with the efficiency of the method being discussed in the process of their presentation.

Mobility Solution

This paper presents a hybrid mobility solution approach to the analysis of dynamically loaded misaligned journal bearings. Mobility data obtained for misaligned bearings (calculated from a finite element representation of the Reynolds equation) are compared with existing curve-fitted mobility maps representative of a perfectly aligned bearing. A relative error analysis of mobility magnitude and direction provides a set of misaligned journal bearing configurations (midplane eccentricity ratio and normalized misalignment angle) where existing curve-fitted mobility map components based on aligned bearings can be used to calculate the resulting journal motion. For bearing configurations where these mobility maps are not applicable, the numerical simulation process proceeds using a complete finite element solution of the Reynolds equation. A set of numerical examples representing misaligned main and connecting rod bearings in a four-stroke automotive engine illustrate the hybrid solution method. Substantial savings in computational time are obtained using the hybrid approach over the complete finite element solution method without loss of computational accuracy.

Dynamically Loaded

Most analyses of dynamically loaded journal bearings produce only film-thickness information directly; this paper provides a conceptually simple means for calculation of film-pressure information subsequent to (or concurrent with) journal orbit calculations. Though the proposed methods for pressure determination complement previous “mobility” methods for orbit determination (since both involve an observation frame rotating with the load), they are in fact quite independent.
