Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of bearing friction testing, in particular to an experimental measuring device and a measuring method for the drag resistance of a rolling element of a rolling bearing. Background Art
[0002] When the main shaft bearing of an aircraft engine is working, moving dual surfaces will be formed between the components. In order to reduce the friction between the dual surfaces, reduce wear, and remove the hard inclusions formed, the main shaft bearing needs to be fully and effectively lubricated. At the same time, a large amount of heat is generated during the operation of the main shaft bearing, and the external high temperature environment will also transfer heat to the bearing. This requires the flow of lubricating oil to remove the heat to ensure that the bearing operates within a reasonable temperature range. In recent years, with the continuous increase in the main shaft speed of advanced aircraft engines, the working environment of the main shaft bearing has continued to deteriorate, which requires a more refined thermal analysis of the bearing to ensure the safety and reliability of the main shaft bearing.
[0003] During the operation of rolling bearings, only a very small amount of lubricating oil that enters the bearing will enter the contact area to form a lubricating oil film. Most of the lubricating oil will mix with air in the bearing ring cavity to form an oil-gas two-phase lubricating oil mist. When the bearing rotates, the rolling body will interact strongly with the oil-gas two-phase flow, resulting in significant fluid viscous friction loss. The force exerted on the bearing parts when they translate in the lubricating oil is called drag resistance, and the torque exerted on the bearing parts when they rotate in the lubricating oil is called eddy torque. Fluid viscosity loss constitutes a considerable part of the total power loss of the rolling element. When the bearing rotates at high speed, the fluid viscous friction loss can even reach about 50% of the total power loss of the bearing. Therefore, accurately calculating the drag resistance of the bearing rolling element moving in the bearing can more accurately analyze the bearing fluid viscous friction and improve the accuracy of the bearing heat generation calculation. However, the complex internal geometry and working environment of the bearing have brought great difficulties to the actual measurement of the drag resistance.
[0004] In the prior art, the research on the drag resistance of rolling elements in bearings is mainly focused on the numerical simulation part. There is a lack of experimental measurement devices and methods for the drag resistance of rolling elements in rolling bearings, which cannot meet the relevant experimental verification capabilities of existing and future aircraft engine main shaft bearings, as well as the research and development and design requirements of bearings.

[0030] A bearing rolling element drag resistance experimental measurement device and method. During the test, during the operation of the bearing, the rolling element is always in a tangent state with the inner and outer raceways. Therefore, in the design of the experimental device, the curvature of the inner and outer rings of the bearing is ignored, and the annular cavity space is changed into a straight interlayer space. In addition, during the operation of the bearing, the drag resistance of the rolling element will also be affected by the adjacent rolling elements in front and behind. The experimental device is equipped with rolling elements of the same size arranged in parallel in front and behind the rolling element to be tested. Together with the upper and lower acrylic plates, they create flow conditions in the bearing for the rolling element to be tested. In the wind tunnel simulation experiment, single-phase fluid flow is used to simulate the oil-gas two-phase flow in the bearing. In addition, due to the actual wind speed and flow conditions in the wind tunnel, the resistance of a single rolling element is very small. In order to reduce the error and facilitate measurement, a new measurement scheme is established in the device, which uses a force amplification measurement structure based on the lever principle to amplify the drag resistance of the rolling element to be tested. One end of the force amplification structure is connected to the rolling element to be tested by bolts, and the rolling element to be tested is suspended in the wind tunnel through the support of the support. The other end is connected to the crossbar, and the crossbar contacts the force sensor. The length ratio of the two force arms of the force amplification structure is 5:1, which can amplify the drag resistance of the rolling element under test by 5 times.

By using different rolling body installation holes (14), the experimental piece installation positioning holes (15) are used to fix the positions of the rolling body (16) to be tested and the rolling bodies (18) arranged in parallel are fixed. The invention relates to a method for measuring drag resistance under conditions of different rolling element numbers and rolling element spacings; a rolling element support rod (17) to be measured is installed on both sides of a rolling element (16) to be measured, and the rolling element support rod (17) to be measured passes through a rolling element mounting hole (14) on a rolling element support seat (13) and is connected to a measuring structure (10), so that the rolling element (16) to be measured is suspended in the air and does not contact other structures; rolling element support rods (21) to be arranged in parallel are installed on both sides of the rolling elements (18) to install the rolling elements (18) in parallel in the rolling element mounting hole (14), so that a flow environment is provided for the rolling elements (16) to be measured; a retaining frame (19) is placed on the rolling element support rods (21) to be arranged in parallel, and a retaining frame fixing module (20) fixes the retaining frame (19) by bolts; the experimental piece (9) can provide a flow environment simulating the actual situation in the bearing for the rolling element (16) to be measured.

9. A method for measuring the drag resistance of a bearing rolling element, characterized in that: The following steps are involved: The first step is to check the low-speed wind tunnel (1), the pitot tube (2) and the wind tunnel control computer (3) to ensure that the wind tunnel is operating safely and the wind speed measurement is accurate; The second step is to open the wind tunnel observation window (30) on one side of the wind tunnel test section (8), fix the test piece (9) to the wind tunnel wall (29) as a whole by bolts, close the wind tunnel observation window (30), connect the tested rolling body support rods (17) on both sides of the tested rolling body (16) to the two swing rods (25) in the measuring structure (10) by bolts, so that the tested rolling body (16) is suspended in the air, install the force sensor (5) and connect it to the force acquisition computer (7), and ensure that the other end of the force amplification structure contacts the force sensor (5); The third step is to check whether there are other foreign objects in the low-speed wind tunnel (1), verify whether the test piece (9) is installed intact, whether the tested rolling element support rod (17) of the tested rolling element (16) is suspended, and whether the other end of the force amplification structure contacts the pressure sensor (5); Step 4: Start the force acquisition computer software, turn on the data recording function, and prepare for force acquisition; Step 5: Start the low-speed wind tunnel (1), control the wind speed by controlling the frequency, and after the wind speed changes stably, record the wind speed and force sensor values displayed by the wind tunnel control computer (3); Step 6, changing the fan operating frequency in turn, and measuring the value of the force sensor (5) at different incoming wind speeds; Step 7: After the data collection is completed, the wind speed of the wind tunnel is gradually reduced. After the wind tunnel stops running, the wind tunnel is closed and the force sensor data collection software is closed. Thus, the measurement experiment of the drag resistance of the rolling element of a bearing of a certain structural form is completed. Step 8: Remove the experimental piece (9), replace the structure of the experimental piece as required, repeat steps 2 to 8, and conduct experiments on the next structural form; The ninth step is to export the drag resistance data collected by the force sensor (5) and perform data processing.
