Examples of Plain Surface
Bearings
In plain surface bearings the shaft moves relative to the
stationary bearing surface – there is sliding contact versus
rolling contact.
Bronze Bearings
Journal bearings
usually employ a
lubricating fluid
between the bearing
and the journal.
Coefficient of Friction
Contact between
journal and bearing
Mixed-film Lubrication
Intermittent contact
µn
Journal rides on a fluid Bearing Parameter ≡
film. Film is created by the p
motion of the journal.
µ ≡ dynamic viscosity, lb - sec/in 2
n ≡ rotational speed, rev/sec
p ≡ pressure (force/projected area), psi
Hydrostatic Bearings
Pressure is used to lift the journal off of the bearing surface.
