According to the characteristics of large size, small clearance ratio, high oil film pressure and thin oil film thickness in the actual conditions of high power marine diesel engine bearing, this Paper analyzes oil film pressure distribution on inner surface of bearing bush based on the finite difference method, uses finite element method to establish the hierarchical model, and analyzes stress and strain distribution on bearing alloy. In addition, this Paper researches the changes of stress and strain distribution on bearing alloy layer when alloy layer thickness changes for the optimization design of high power marine diesel engine bearing bush.

Purpose The edge of diesel engine crankshaft main bearing is more likely to fail in its real working condition. This paper aims to study the bearing failure mechanism by finding the relationship between bearing lubrication characteristics and its working condition. Design/methodology/approach This work builds the mixed lubrication model of crankshaft bearing to analyze the cause of bearing abnormal wear, and the finite difference method was used to solving the average Reynolds equation. During the analysis, journal misaligned angle, external load and roughness are considered. Findings The result shows that the wear of the diesel engine crankshaft bearing happens in engine startup phase and the bottom of the bearing are more prone to be excessively worn. Under the influence of journal misalignment, bearing asperity contact load and speed range of mixed lubrication will increase markedly. The edge of the bearing will be excessively worn. The effect of misalignment on bearing lubrication performance varies under different shaft rotation speed. Originality/value The former research studies on crankshaft bearing either just focused on its lubrication characteristics or interested in its failure types (wear, adhere, cavitation). This paper studies the relationship between bearing failure mechanism and lubrication performance.

This article, through the cylinder jacket break phenomenon which occurs to the diesel engine early time carries on the failure analysis, suggests that the cylinder jacket material ingredient control is lax, causes the cylinder jacket material brittleness to be oversized, the tool escape acute angle is the cylinder jacket break primary cause, and proposes corresponding regulatory measures prevent the cylinder jacket early tithe break.
