Abstract
A modified form of Reynolds' equation is presented which describes the pressure distribution in an oil film considering terms representing inertial forces of the oil and variable oil viscosity. A detailed analysis in dimensionless form of the order of magnitude of the terms appearing in this equation is presented. The simultaneous influence of the variable oil viscosity, which depends on the pressure, and of the inertial forces of the oil on the distribution of hydrodynamic pressure in a slide journal bearing of infinite length has been determined. The effect of the inertial forces when the oil viscosity is constant and the effect of variable viscosity (neglecting oil inertial forces) on the distribution of hydrodynamic pressure in the bearing are given.
