Plain bearings — Hydrostatic plain journal bearings with drainage grooves under steady-state conditions — Part 1: Calculation of oil-lubricated plain journal bearings with drainage grooves

Scope

This document applies to hydrostatic plain journal bearings under steady-state conditions.
In this document, only bearings with oil drainage grooves between the recesses are taken into account. As compared to bearings without oil drainage grooves, this type needs higher power with the same stiffness behaviour.
NOTE Equivalent calculation procedures exist that enable operating conditions to be estimated and checked against acceptable conditions. The use of them is equally admissible.
