Journal bearing in high-speed working conditions will generate a lot of heat, which affects its working performance. Based on hydrodynamic lubrication theory, a model of the thermal hydrodynamic lubrication was built, and the distributions of temperatures and pressures of the oil film were obtained from the simultaneous solution of generalized Reynolds, energy and viscosity-temperature equations. The results show that the temperature will increase and the pressure decrease of the lubrication oil film with the rising of the rotating speed, which will make the the bearing capacity decrease. Compared with the traditional isothermal model, the thermal hydrodynamic lubrication model is more consistent with the engineering practice.

Under high and super-high speed, oil film of the journal bearing is easy to crack and then becomes cavitation. The existence of cavitation has an important effect on the work characteristics of the shaft. On the journal bearing experiment rig the cavitation characteristics of the three-groove journal beaing were studied. The influences of the shaft rotating speed and supply pressure on cavitation shape were investigated. The results show that rotating speed and supply pressure have a clear effect on the cavitation shape, and the number of cavitation strip in the rupture zone decreases when the supply pressure increases.

Under high and super high speed, the oil film of a journal bearing is easy to crack and then becomes cavitation. The existence of cavitation has a great effect on the work performance of the bearing. The cavitation mechanism of a spiral oil wedge journal bearing was investigated on the experimental rig. The effects of rotating speed and supply pressure on the cavitation shape of oil film and the number of cavitation strip in the rupture zone were analyzed. The results show that the cavitation shape of oil film is a long strip. The number of cavitation strip increases when supply pressure has been improved, and the location of oil outlet must be designed optimally.

Under high and super-high speed conditions, oil film of the journal bearing is easy to crack and then becomes cavitation. The existence of cavitation has a great effect on the work characteristics of the bearing. Cavitation boundary of a three-groove journal beaing was investigated on the journal bearing experimental rig. The influences of rotating speed and supply pressure on cavitation boundary were studied. And experimental equations of reformation location and the percent of rupture area are established. The results show that rupture location of oil film is not related with rotating speed and supply pressure, otherwise reformation location of oil film is effected greatly by them. The experimental equations lay foundations for next research on cavitation theory model and stability.

The oil film among meshing teeth is just like a spring-damping element, and it can dominate the friction and meshing characteristics of the gear pair and influence its dynamic performances further. Thus, this article focuses on a double-helical gear system and makes efforts to consider the effect of the oil film among meshing teeth more deeply, which can enhance the precision of dynamic analysis for the gear system. First, based on the elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication theory and “microtomy” method, the models of friction and meshing characteristics are developed including the friction state and spring-damping effect of the oil film among meshing teeth; then, the dynamic models of the double-helical gear system with the effect of the oil film among meshing teeth are established, and finally, the experiments are carried out to verify the value of the models developed in this article. According to the theoretical and experimental analyses, it can be seen that the dynamic model considering the effect of the oil film among the meshing teeth is more precise and practical, and the effect of the oil film should be considered in the dynamic analysis of the gear system, especially at the condition with heavy load or high speed.
