Tribology of Slip Surfaces in Journal Bearings
Description
Boundary slip can be triggered by certain engineered surfaces. Journal bearings with slip surfaces have markedly different performances compared with traditional journal bearings. In order to reasonably utilise boundary slip to improve the tribological performances of journal bearings, including hydrodynamic and hybrid journal bearings, it is necessary to draw out the impact laws of boundary slip on the performances of journal bearings. The design criterion of slip surfaces is presented in this chapter; only a well-designed slip surface could improve the tribological performances of journal bearings. This chapter could provide a valuable guide for the design of slip surfaces in journal bearings.
