Abstract

Friction and wear are the most important parameter to decide the performance of any bearing. The occurrence of the faults associated with Journal bearing is one of the most common cause of forced outages in rotating systems. During working bearing subjected to a progressive wear process, which can be accentuated in starts and stops or during the passage through the critical speed of journal. Therefore, investigation of friction and wear behavior of materials is important because of the adverse effect observed in performance and life of machinery components. After the test on wear machine, we found that additives can reduce wear by keeping the less co-efficient of friction, which helps to minimize the power loss due to friction. Nano-fluids are efficiently used to improve the tribological properties of bearing lubrication.
