High speed, high temp. ball bearing self contained cartridge.
High speed, high temp. ball bearing self contained cartridge.
(OP)
Hello everyone.
Designing from scratch a proof of concept gas turbine.
Need to find a readily available, off of the shelve high speed, high temperature ball bearing self contained cartridge for the turbine wheel shaft.
Will it be possible to transform a "traditional" oil film turbocharger cartridge into a ceramic ball bearing lower pressure oil lubricated cartridge?
I'm stuck! Please help if you can.
Thanks for the interest.

I am assuming somewhere from 105 to 115 Celsius, worst case scenario.
I say "assuming" because it's a prototype based on a redesigned gas turbine ... chances are that the temperatures are going to be lower.
Thanks Jim
