Summary of Guide4.1 This guide assists users in the condition assessment ofplain bearing applications by selecting oil tests associated withspecific failure modes, causes, or effects for the purpose ofdetecting the earliest stage of failure development.4.2 There are a number of d

26、ifferent industrial systems withplain bearings. For the purpose of demonstrating the applica-tions of this methodology, a simple horizontal bearing housingutilizing a journal type plain bearing lubricated by an oil ringwill be discussed. This example is a typical application formany industrial pumps

27、 and motors (1).44.3 The focus of this example is to select oil tests capable ofdetecting and monitoring the progression of specific plainbearing failure modes, their causes and effects, as well aslubricating oil deterioration.4.4 The expectation is that similar approaches will beapplied to other sy

28、stem components lubricated under hydrody-namic condition to detect their specific failure modes.5. Significance and Use5.1 This standard is intended as a guideline for the justifi-cation of oil test selection for monitoring plain bearingconditions. One should employ a continuous benchmarkingagainst

29、similar applications to ensure lessons learned arecontinuously being implemented.5.2 Selection of oil tests for the purpose of detecting plainbearing failure modes requires good understanding of equip-ment design, operating requirements, and surrounding condi-tions. Specifically, detailed knowledge

30、is required of bearingdesign configuration, dimensional tolerances, load directions,design limitations, lubrication mechanisms, lubricantcharacteristics, and metallurgy of lubricated surfaces. Equip-ment criticality and accessibility as well as application of othermonitoring techniques (for example,

31、 vibration, ultrasound, orthermal images) are also critical information in this analysisprocess. In addition, detailed knowledge of the lubricating oilis paramount.3Available from American National Standards Institute (ANSI), 25 W. 43rd St.,4th Floor, New York, NY 10036, http:/www.ansi.org.4The bold

33、able of detecting these changes.To demonstrate this approach, Section 6 will provide extensivedescriptions of the plain bearing failure modes, their causes,and effects.6. Failure Modes and their Effects for Plain BearingApplications6.1 During steady state operation, plain bearings operateprimarily u

34、nder the hydrodynamic (HD) lubrication regime.6.2 The main failure modes of plain bearings include rapidbreakdown or slow deterioration of the HD oil film.6.3 The rapid breakdown of HD oil film can be caused by asudden loss of lubricating oil, rapid change in bearing operat-ing conditions being outs

35、ide the original design basis, oraccidental bearing material disintegration. Wear sensors andother monitoring techniques (for example, bearing surfacetemperature or vibration sensors) would provide better moni-toring capability for this failure mode.6.4 The slow deterioration of HD oil film can be m

36、onitoredby in-line oil sensors or off-line oil sample analysis. Based onoperating experience, several causes are linked to this failuremode.6.5 Causes of Plain Bearing Failures:6.5.1 Change in Dynamic Viscosity of the LubricatingOilDynamic viscosity at operating temperature is the onlyproperty repre

37、senting the lubricant in the HD oil film thicknesscalculation. In general, reduction in dynamic viscosity willreduce the oil film thickness. Under severe transient conditionsreduction of the oil film thickness may change the HDlubrication condition to a mixed lubrication regime and in-crease the ris

38、k of bearing surface contact and wear. If notcorrected, it will cause bearing failure. In opposite conditionswhen the dynamic viscosity is too high, an increase in drag andfriction will result in local heat generation, which may increasethe rate of chemical reaction within the oil film. In condition

39、-based maintenance programs, kinematic viscosity at 40 C (oroccasionally at 100 C) is used to measure this property. Theassumption is that in most industrial applications, lubricantdensity is not significantly changed in the measured tempera-ture of interest (for example, 40 C or 100 C) and trending

40、kinematic viscosity can provide adequate prediction of thelubricants ability to form a reliable and sustainable HD oilfilm. Newer methods exist or are being developed that willmeasure dynamic viscosity directly. These methods may intime become commonly used in this application.6.5.2 Deterioration of

41、 Lubricating Oil ChemistryThe HDlubrication will also depend on the complex relationshipbetween properties of oil-to-metal adhesion and oil-to-oilcohesion. Applying a constant shear stress on the lubricatingoil film may lead to physical damage to the lubricant mol-ecules. The presence of atmospheric

42、 oxygen may initiatechemical reactions such as oxidation. High temperature andpressure will accelerate these reactions and lubricant moleculesthermal breakdown. Finally, lubricating oil will also deteriorateby the additive depletion process (for example, due to expectedperformance). The depletion ra

43、te would depend on the additivetype, applications, and operating conditions. The consequencesof these chemical changes will influence several criticalproperties such as cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, etc.Some visible changes will include an increase in foamingcharacteristics, air release, slud

44、ge and varnish formation, orreduce oil solubility characteristics.6.5.3 Increase in Gaseous, Liquid, and Solid ParticleContaminationAll three contaminants types will affect theHD oil film but in different mechanisms.6.5.3.1 An excessive amount of undissolved gas bubbles inthe oil weakens the load ca

45、rrying capacity of the lubricatingfilm. If the gas is reactive, it can promote chemical degradationof the lubricant which may change the physical characteristicsof the oil.6.5.3.2 A large amount of liquid contaminants, particularlythose having significantly different viscosity or density, mayinfluen

46、ce the dynamic viscosity. If this liquid has chemicalreactivity with the lubricant, it could affect its performancecharacteristics. An example is free water which may notsupport the external load acting on the bearing. It could alsohydrolyze some of the additives, affecting their performance.6.5.3.3

47、 The presence of a moderate concentration of smallsolid particle contamination is of less concern in HDlubrication, assuming the particle sizes are smaller than the oilfilm thickness. However, the presence of solid particles is moreharmful in boundary and mixed lubrication conditions. Thepresence of

48、 solid particles may increase the risk of someparticles being imbedded in soft bearing surfaces and generateabrasive wear to the mating hard surfaces. In applications witha hydrostatic lift system, large solid particles may scratchsurfaces around oil grooves, reducing bearing capability togenerate t

49、he required hydrostatic lift during start up or shutdown operations.6.5.4 Change in Bearing Surface Profile or MaterialPropertiesChanges in the relative speed of bearing surfacesor to the wedge profile will also influence the HD oil film.During start up or shut down operations, plain bearings mostlikely will operate for a short period under mixed or evenboundary lubrication. At these conditions there is an increasedrisk of bearing surface contact resulting in surface wear, whichmay temper the profile of the lubricating oil wedge, thusaffecting th
