21、echniques(Design considerations)Select:grade of oil to be used,together with suitable values for P,N,r,c,and L.Bear in mind:the radial clearance c is difficult to hold accurate during manufacture,and it may increase because of wear.What is the effect of an entire range of radial clearances,expected
22、in manufacture,and what will happen to the bearing performance if c increases because of wear?Answerby plotting curves of the performance as functions of the quantities over which the designer has controlIf the clearance is too tight,the temperature will be too high and the minimum film thickness to
23、o low.High temperatures may cause the bearing to fail by fatigue.If the oil film is too thin,dirt particles may not pass without scoring or may embed themselves in the bearing.In either event,there will be excessive wear and friction,resulting in high temperatures and possible seizing.A large cleara
24、nce will permit the dirt to pass through and also will permit a large flow of oil.This lowers the temperature and increases the life of the bearing.However,if the clearance becomes too large,the bearing becomes noisy and the minimum film thickness begins to decrease again.Considering the production tolerance and the future wear,the best compromise is a clearance range slightly to the left of the top of the minimum-film-thickness curve.In this way,future operating point will move to the right and increase the film thickness and decrease the operating temperature.The end of Chapter 5
