Abstract

A THD model of plain journal bearings was proposed herein. This model involved the synthetic solution of the generalized Reynolds equation, three-dimensional energy equation, and heat conduction equations of the solids. On the basis of that, series of results were provided to examine the effects of thermal boundary conditions. The results show the thermal boundary conditions have considerable effects on the THD analysis of plain journal bearings. Therefore, it is necessary to choose the thermal boundary conditions according to the actual operating conditions, so as to obtain reliable calculating results.
