bushing/shaft design
(OP)
Would someone please direct me to a source that will guide me though designing a bushing/journal running surface for a shaft using 100 viscosity grease type lube?
I'm new at bushing design, and know only basic principles and rules of thumb.
The design needs to take into account:
- high operating temps
- high moisture environment (saturated steam)
- alternating cooling and reheating scenario (5x daily)
- heavy loading
- max 10 mph rolling velocity (9 1/2" pitch dia wheel velocity)
Appreciate you help! ... Chris H. (caduser@jameshardie.com)

They have plain bearing product operating succesfully for years in steam condensate at 120 deg C and also 200 deg C

Roller manufacturers are accustomed to meeting special design requirements on a daily basis, plus there is the added benifit of a warrenty, usually.
Good Luck.
