| Popis: | The distribution of lubricating oil in the bearing cavity is of great significance to bearing lubrication and cooling. A new idea is provided to further study the ball bearings lubrication, to achieve effective lubrication of bearings. The flow field of oil injection lubrication ball bearings is studied by the moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method. The accuracy of the numerical calculation method is verified by experiments. The oil distribution of the bearing lubrication flow field and churning torque of the ball and cage at different speeds are analyzed. The research results show the maximum oil content in the bearing cavity is distributed in the range of about 90° to 120°. As the increase of rotating speed, the number of particles in the bearing cavity decreases. The churning torque decreases with the increase of rotating speed and increases with the increase of the oil viscosity. This study provides a new numerical calculation method for the lubrication flow field of ball bearings. |
