摘要:

Tests were conducted to measure the dynamic characteristics for two types of five-shoe tilt pad journal bearings having a load between pads configuration. Dynamic measurements of the two bearings are presented for 5000, 7000 and 12,000 rpm, and unit loads ranging from 126 kPa to 1724 kPa. Comparisons are made between the measured data and the theoretical prediction. Test data includes fluid film stiffness and damping, with calculated uncertainties and the measured radial stiffness of the pivots. The measured dynamic characteristics show the bearings differ with respect to stiffness and damping, while the measured radial pivot stiffnesses were nearly identicalPresented as a Society of Tribologists and Lubrication Engineers paper at the ASME/STLE Tribology Conference in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, October 26–28, 1998

摘要:

Traditional fretting tests rely on the high Hertzian stress contacts between a cylinder or sphere and a flat surface to generate oxide particles and an eventual wear scar. However, this configuration does not always match the stresses and wear mechanism associated with parallel surfaces where fretting may only initiate in limited regions of contacting asperities. To simulate these conditions at 175°F, fretting wear tests were used to evaluate the performance of High Velocity Oxy-Fuel (HVOF) and Plasma-sprayed Cu Ni In coatings for the reduction of gross-slip fretting (relative displacements of 100 μm) experienced between mating beta-c titanium bosses and 4340 steel lugs. Scanning electron microscopy was then used to compare the frequency and severity of fretting wear on the titanium blocks. Results of the analysis indicated the viability of the lubricious coatings for eliminating the instances of fretting. Furthermore, the tests indicated the usefulness of the flat-on-flat testing configuration for illuminating the potentially random occurrences of fretting damage between parallel surfaces.Presented at the 53rd Annual Meeting in Detroit, Michigan May 17–21, 1998
