This study investigates the mixed lubrication performances of stern bearing in a misaligned state considering the impacts of turbulence and bearing deformation. A mixed lubrication model is established, taking into account the interaction of bearing elastic deformation, asperity contact pressure, and film pressure. The effects of elastic deformation and turbulence on bearing behaviors are studied, and the correctness of the model is verified through comparison with published data.
Purpose This study aims to investigate mixed lubrication performances of stern bearing in a misaligned state considering turbulence and bearing deformation impacts.Design/methodology/approach A mixed lubrication model of stern bearing is established. The generalized average Reynolds equation governing the turbulent flow of lubricant is analyzed by considering the interaction of bearing elastic deformation, asperity contact pressure and film pressure. The bearing behaviors including minimum film thickness, hydrodynamic pressure, asperity friction force and frictional coefficient are studied under different models. The correctness of this model is verified by comparing it with that of the published data.Findings Numerical results indicate that elastic deformation noticeably decreases the maximum film pressure, the asperity contact force and the friction coefficient in the mixed lubrication stage. The effect of elastic deformation and turbulence reduces the transition speed from mixed to liquid lubrication.Originality/value This model includes both turbulence and bearing deformation impacts on journal bearing performances. It is expected that the numerical results can provide useful information to establish a stern bearing exposed to mixed lubrication conditions.Peer review The peer review history for this article is available at:
