Full Description
This part of ISO 7902 specifies a calculation procedure for oil-lubricated hydrodynamic plain bearings, with complete separation of the shaft and bearing sliding surfaces by a film of lubricant, used for designing plain bearings that are reliable in operation.
It deals with circular cylindrical bearings having angular spans , of 360, 180, 150, 120 and 90, the arc segment being loaded centrally. Their clearance geometry is constant except for negligible deformations resulting from lubricant film pressure and temperature.
The calculation procedure serves to dimension and optimize plain bearings, in turbines, generators, electric motors, gear units, rolling mills, pumps and other machines. It is limited to steady-state operation, i.e. under continuously driven operating conditions, with magnitude and direction of loading as well as the angular speeds of all rotating parts constant. It can also be applied if a full plain bearing is subjected to a constant force rotating at any speed. Dynamic loadings, i.e. those whose magnitude and direction vary with time, such as can result from vibration effects and instabilities of rapid-running rotors, are not taken into account.
