Abstract
The main bearing is one of the primary friction pairs of a diesel engine. The lubrication condition affects the performance of the marine diesel engine directly. Continuous working time of main bearings is longer, load is higher and working condition is even worse especially in low medium speed marine diesel engine, making it difficult to form good dynamic pressure lubrication.Therefore, this paper takes a high-power marine diesel G32 with 9 cylinders as an example, calculates and analyzes the load, the orbit of main shaft center and the minimum thickness of oil film in each main bearing, providing the basis to estimate each main bearing’s lubricating condition, predicting each main bearing’s performance precisely and judging whether there exists abnormal working conditions in each main bearing.
