Experimental and Numerical Analysis on the Seizure of a Carbon-Filled PTFE Central Groove Journal Bearing during Start-Up Period

During the start-up period, if the journals bearing bushing and shaft materials have different heat conductivities, the thermal expansion of the shaft might be more rapid than that of the bushing. This reduces the radial clearance between the bearing components and generates higher shear stresses in...
