Abstract

A theoretical study to determine the influence of pressure and temperature on oil viscosity in finite-length thrust bearings. This paper points out that it is theoretically possible to determine the influence that pressure and temperature play on oil viscosity and, in turn, on bearing performance by solving the energy and Reynolds equations simultaneously.
