Thank you much for the Answer, romke. This sounds reasonable, I'll have to check if the order of friction losses calculated from such a simple assumption will be realistic. In fact, we do have measurements on Temperature drop over the bearing. From this drop and lubricant flow the heat...
Hello everybody, I'm searching for a method to calculate the heat release in a hydrodynamic plain bearing. In fact I have a formula for it but I need the friction coefficient, like we have it in the stribeck curve. The mixed friction operation is of particular interest, since for pure...
