CAVITATION ESTIMATES BY ORBIT PREDICTION OF A JOURNAL BEARING - FINITE ELEMENT MODELLING AND EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES

The paper presents a two-sided approach to establish understanding of the cavitation phenomenon in dynamically loaded journal bearings, more specifically the engine bearings of large two-stroke marine diesel engines. One disadvantage of the journal bearing is the converging-diverging geometry making...
