Abstract
This work reports on the wear behaviour of oil-impregnated sintered bronze bearings under different specific loads, speeds, viscosities of impregnated oil, diametral clearances and surface roughnesses of journal. A pendulum dynamometer was used to carry out the wear test. Wear tests were carried out for a period of 100 h. Based on the measurements it was concluded that there was only oil loss and no metal loss in the sintered bearings during running. It was found that the oil loss was more for higher specific loads, higher speeds, lighter impregnating oils and rougher journals. The oil loss was found to be minimum at a clearance of approximately 0.19% of the diameter of the journal.
