The lubrication characteristics of high-speed ball bearings has been investigated empirically using 45mm bore split inner ring ball bearings employed in small industrial gas turbine engines with oil-jet lubrication method. For the close structural simulation, experiments carried out with bearing mounting supports of real engines, such as bearing housings and oil nozzle assemblies with squeeze film dampers. Thus the results of tests can be directly applied to the design and the development of gas turbine engines. Testing was done by varying operating speeds, axial load on bearings, and lubricant flowrates. During testing, the temperature of bearing at outer-ring face, the power consumption of the driving motor, and the rotating resistance of the bearing were measured. From this study, the representative factors for lubrication characteristics at high speed was found, and the most important one was not operating speed but axial load up to 1.95 million dmN speed and 303 kgf axial load. Furthermore, the detailed variation of the rotational resistance of the bearing could be visualized by measuring the change of the radial load under the bearing supports. The rotational resistance consists of the frictional resistance and the bearing-cavity oil resistance.

현재 널리 보급되어 있는 볼베어링은 몇개의 볼에 의해 작동하기에 회전이 불균일하며 진동과 소음이 크다. 이는 고속에서 한계를 갖는 주된 원인이 되고 있다. 또한 그리스의 손실로 인한 수명의 단축이나, 유출된 그리스로 인한 손상은 제품의 내구성에 치명적인 결과를 초래한다. 더욱이 기존에 사용하는 소형 정밀 베어링은 전량 수입에 의존하고 있으며, 기술 선진국의 기술이전 회피로 개발이 어려우며, 수입물량도 확보하기 어려운 상황이다. 이를 극복하기 위한 하나의 방법이 볼과 그리스를 대신해서 유체의 압력을 이용한 유체동압베어링의 개발이다. 유체동압을 이용한 베어링의 장점은 그리스의 누유가 없고, 이로 인한 설계상의 제약이 없으며, 볼베어링으로는 불가능한 고속회전에 적합하고, 안전성이 뛰어나며 회전이 균일하여 제품의 신뢰성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 유체동압 함유소결함유베어링은 진동과 소음이 적고, 저렴하며 구조가 간단하고, 급유기를 필요로 하지 않는 자기윤활(self-lubrication)특성과 생산성 등 많은 장점을 가지고 그 사용범위가 점차 광범위하게 넓어지고 있지만, 저속상태에서의 유막형성, 고속상태에서 기름의 누유, 고하중상태에서 강도와 기공의 눌어붙음과 출발과 정지 시에 발생하는 두 금속간의 직접 접촉을 피할 수 없는 것과 같은 해결해야 하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 단점을 해결하기 위하여 유체동압 함유소결베어링이 마찰특성을 알아보고자 한다.

As journal bearing has a sliding motion between the shaft and bearing with lubricating oil, it produces a hydrodynamic lubrication condition. Journal bearing can receive a large force because it takes a distributed load at the large friction face. As the oil groove or oil hole is made in the journal bearing surface for the journal bearing smoothly working under a hydrodynamic lubrication condition, sufficient lubricating oil is supplied through the clearance of journal bearing. The performance of the journal bearing is changed according to the shapes, sizes and positions of an oil groove. In this paper, the flow rate according to the oil groove shapes (triangle, semicircle and rectangle) among the various oil supply conditions was measured. The shape that discharges the highest flow rate was observed and the groove shape of optimal performance for the journal bearing was determined. The results showed that the flow rate increases with decreasing operating temperature, the influence of temperature on the flow rate decreased with increasing rotational speed, and flow rate in the triangular groove shape was greater than in other shapes.

In this study, the rheological and tribological properties of urea grease were studied according to the type and amount of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) powders added to the urea grease, which is the most widely used among solid lubricants, to develop an optimal lubrication system. Urea grease was synthesized using 4,4'-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate)(MDI), oleylamine, and cyclohexylamine, and PTFE powders prepared by dispersion or suspension polymerization process were then added. The basic rheological and tribological properties of the prepared greases were compared. The worked penetration numbers of urea grease decreased with increasing amount of PTFE powders, but both PTFE powders caused no significant changes in heat resistance and copper corrosion resistance. The shear viscosity increased with increasing PTFE powder content, and the dispersion-type PTFE powder was more effective in increasing the viscosity. In the value of the loss coefficient = 1, the shear stress was higher for the grease containing PTFE powders than the non-PTFE added grease, and the dispersion-type PTFE-added grease showed higher viscosity than the suspension-type PTFE-added grease. Finally, urea grease was found to have a low-performance improvement in terms of wear reduction effects by adding PTFE powders, but the load-bearing performance was up to 2.5 times higher for the dispersion-type PTFE and five times higher for the suspension-type PTFE.

In recent times, surface texturing methods have been widely applied to reduce friction and improve the reliability of machine components such as parallel thrust bearings, mechanical face seals, and piston rings. In this study, a numerical analysis is carried out to investigate the effect of uniformly spaced hemispherical dimples on the lubrication characteristics of a slider bearing using a commercial computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, FLUENT. The pressure distributions, load capacity, leakage flowrate, and friction force are strongly affected by the dimple diameter and the number of dimples. In particular, the load capacity and friction force decrease linearly with the dimple density whereas the leakage increases. These results can be used for designing the optimum dimple characteristics in order to improve the lubrication performance of slider bearings, for which further studies are required.

3원통/링 마모시험기를 사용하여 윤활유 공급하에서 미끄럼 마모시험을 수행하였다. 엔진유에 첨가되는 대표적 첨가제인 ZDDP, 청정제, 분산제의 첨가제 3종과 모델 산호물로서 유성제인 스테아린산을 선택하여, 그 배합유의 마모방지특성을 조사하였다. 청정제 및 분산제 각각의 첨가에 의해 마모방지특성은 향상되었으나, 청정제 및 분산제를 동시에 첨가할 경우 마모방지성능의 향상효과는 없어졌다. 또한, 모델산화물인 스테아린산의 첨가로 인하여 ZDDP의 마모방지작용은 나빠지나, 청정분산제가 그 악영향을 억제하는 작용을 한다.
