Abstract

Hydrodynamic journal bearing is a bearing operating with hydrodynamic lubrication, in which the bearing surface is separated from the journal surface by the lubricant film generated by the journal rotation. In this paper Pressure distribution on Journal Bearing is studied by considering Sommerfeld and Reynolds boundary conditions. Solution of one dimensional Reynolds equation is done using Finite difference method and graph is obtained with help of MATLAB. Experiment work is carried out for investigation of effect of water emulsion on pressure of journal bearing by considering different water ratio on Hydrodynamic Journal Bearing Apparatus. Experimental results are compared for effect of water emulsion on pressure for same speed and load condition.
