Abstract

The impact of slip on the steady-state performance characteristics of lemon bearings using non-Newtonian lubricant are explored in the current work. The power law model incorporates the non-Newtonian effect, and the Navier slip condition is used to investigate the influence of slip lengths on lubricating surfaces. The modified Reynolds equation for lemon bearing is developed and solved using finite difference technique using MATLAB to evaluate the steady state characteristics. From the present study, it is found that wall slip has noticeable effect on performance characteristics of lemon bearing and has a greater impact when slip occurs on the journal surface.
