OIL & GROOVES in PLAIN ‐ JOURNAL BEARINGS

Abstract

The comparative performance of plain journal bearings having various arrangements of oil holes and grooves, operating in a four‐bearing friction machine with forced‐feed lubrication, was determined1 by S. A. McKee and H. S. White of the National Bureau of Standards (U.S.A.). This investigation, part of a research programme on plain‐journal lubrication sponsored by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics, has provided much useful knowledge on different methods of bearing lubrication.
