Popis: Warship always face the threat of underwater explosion shock, which may affect the ship stern tube bearing lubrication performance when the propeller shaft is bending. This paper builds the coupling model of shaft longitudinal vibration and bearing lubrication with consideration of shaft axial shock and misalignment. The performance of stern bearing under the influence of explosion shock was analyzed by solving the generalized Reynolds equation, shaft longitudinal vibration equation and explosion shock equation. The result shows that: the effect of underwater explosion shock on bearing lubrication performance is transient, and the effect will be more obvious when the bearing works at close quarter, larger misaligned angle, eccentricity and rotation speed. Moreover, the edge effect which caused by shaft bending will increase with the decrease of explosion distance and the increase of eccentricity.
