Abstract
Abstract An analysis of elliptical bearings is presented based on the numerical solution of Reynolds equation for finite bearings. The solution of the differential equation was performed on a digital computer and this, supplemented by additional work on the nature of oil flow, power loss, and eccentricity in elliptical bearings, provides solutions for bearings of various L/D ratios, ellipticities, and various operating conditions. The only restriction is that the bearings have two oil grooves at the horizontal split of approximately 30 deg each. Equations and charts are presented in convenient form and an outline for performing bearing calculations is given.
