[0016] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 , is a bearing-rotor system life calculation method disclosed in the present application, comprising the following steps, wherein the numbers S1-S6 do not necessarily represent a certain order.

[0017] S1: Select the rotating machinery and bearing-rotor system, and obtain the basic parameters as follows: journal diameter d j , radial clearance C, bearing diameter D b , bearing length l b , circumferential groove length l g , circumferential groove diameter d g , the bearing is a sliding bearing;

[0018] S2: Use software to build a three-dimensional rotor model and obtain the radial force F of the rotating machinery rotor through computational fluid dynamics r , unit N;

[0019] S3: To calculate the lubricating film pressure distribution between the bearing and the rotor, the assumptions such as constant liquid density and constant lubricating film thickness along the axial direction are considered. If the bearing capacity ≥ radial force F r , using formulas (1) to (3) of the Navier-Stokes equation:

[0020] (1)

[0021] (2)

[0022]

[0023] If the bearing capacity is less than the radial force F r , in this case, a lubricating oil groove needs to be added, and the lubricating film pressure distribution can be calculated by formula (4):

[0024] (4)

[0025] Where A is the effective contact area between the bearing and rotor system.

[0026] S4: Based on the lubricating film pressure p calculated in step S3, taking into account and , due to the existence of bearing capacity ≥ radial force F r and bearing capacity < radial force F r Therefore, according to the situation, the wear distribution of the bearing-rotor system can be calculated by combining formulas (1) to (3) or (4), which can be expressed as formula (5):

[0027] (5)

[0028] Where V is the wear volume in mm 3 ; k is the wear coefficient; p is the lubricating film pressure, in N; A is the effective contact area between the bearing and the rotor system, in mm 2 ; v is the relative sliding velocity of the contact surface, in mm / s; t is the elapsed time, in s; H w It is the Brinell hardness of the softer material in the contact component. For example, if the hardness of the rotor is greater than that of the bearing, then the Brinell hardness is the hardness of the bearing.

[0029] S5: Further, by integrating formula (5) with respect to time and space, the wear amount within a certain period of time can be obtained, which can be expressed as formula (6):

[0030] (6)

[0031] S6: According to step S5, the wear amount of the bearing-rotor system can be calculated and combined with its wear threshold V阈 The wear time can be derived and the service life can be predicted.

[0032] (7)

[0033] Where V 阈 is the allowable wear of the bearing-rotor system, which can be expressed by the formula It is calculated that T is the life of the bearing-rotor system.

[0034] For example, the speed of a shielded pump is 5500r / min, the design flow rate is 135L / min, the design head is 7.5m, the lubricant medium is 20℃ water, and the density is 998.2kg / m 3 , dynamic viscosity 0.001Pa·s. Consider the case where the bearing capacity is greater than the radial force.

[0037] S3: To calculate the lubricating film pressure distribution between the bearing and the rotor, the assumptions such as constant liquid density and constant lubricating film thickness along the axial direction are considered. If the bearing capacity is ≥ radial force, the Navier-Stokes equations (1) to (3) are used:

[0038] (1)

[0039] (2)

[0040]

[0041] Get as Figure 5 The lubricating film pressure distribution between the rotor and the bearing is shown.

[0043] (4)

[0044] S5: Further, by integrating formula (4) with respect to time and space, the wear amount within a certain period of time can be obtained, which can be expressed as formula (5):

[0045] (5)

[0046] Where V is the wear volume in mm 3 ; k is the wear coefficient, k=10 -6 ; Wear surface sliding speed v=0.001mm / s; Brinell hardness H w = 600. After calculation, we get Figure 6 The amount of wear on the bearing-rotor system is shown.

[0048] Among them, according to Figure 5 The maximum wear of the bearing-rotor system is calculated to be , allowable wear of bearing-rotor system , then the bearing-rotor system life can be calculated as:

[0049] (6)

[0050] Therefore, the predicted life expectancy is 9 years.
