Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sliding bearing performance testing, and relates to a method, system, equipment and storage medium for assessing the life of sliding bearings. Background Technology
[0002] Sliding bearings are characterized by high operating speed, good stability, good vibration resistance, large load capacity, low noise, and long service life. They are widely used in high-speed, high-precision, and heavy-load industrial fields, playing a vital role in ensuring the stable operation of industrial production and improving product quality.
[0003] As modern machinery develops towards greater complexity, precision, and speed, the operating conditions of sliding bearings are becoming increasingly demanding. Under fluid lubrication, the sliding journal and bearing surfaces are completely separated by lubricating oil, preventing direct contact and significantly reducing friction and wear, ensuring efficient operation and long lifespan. However, in actual operation, especially during start-up and shutdown, the lubricating oil film is not fully formed, and the lack of effective lubrication isolation between the journal and bearing surfaces makes direct contact highly likely, leading to wear. While the amount of wear during start-up and shutdown may be relatively small each time, its long-term accumulation can have a significant impact on bearing performance. Under harsh operating conditions, bearings may wear and degrade under radial loads. As operating time increases, wear accumulates, and when it reaches a certain level, the sliding bearing will be unable to function properly, resulting in the loss of some or all of its functionality. As a critical component in a mechanical system, the loss of function of the sliding bearing directly affects the safety and stability of the entire system, leading to equipment failure, production interruption, and even serious safety accidents. Therefore, predicting the lifespan of sliding bearings is of great significance for their application. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method, system, device, and storage medium for assessing the life of sliding bearings, thereby solving the problem that existing technologies cannot accurately predict the life of sliding bearings.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: A method for assessing the life of a sliding bearing includes: Based on the fluid lubrication calculation model, the maximum oil film pressure and maximum shear stress under various working conditions are solved. The Miner rule is used to perform full-cycle damage accumulation assessment and calculate the material fatigue life of the sliding bearing. The shaft center trajectory of the sliding bearing in each start-stop working cycle is solved based on the fluid lubrication calculation model. Based on the shaft center trajectory, the wear amount in each cycle is calculated using the Archard sliding wear model. Based on the fluid lubrication calculation model and the accumulation of wear, the bearing load capacity and bearing stability when partial wear occurs are calculated, and the wear life of the sliding bearing is obtained. The life of a sliding bearing is determined by comparing its wear life with its material fatigue life.
[0006] Furthermore, the total damage over the entire life cycle is represented by the total damage rate after operation over the entire life cycle. The total damage rate after operation over the entire life cycle is:

[0010] in, For maximum oil film pressure, This represents the maximum oil film shear stress.
[0011] Furthermore, the calculation process for the shaft center trajectory within each start-stop working cycle is as follows: Given the initial parameters at the starting point, calculate the initial oil film thickness, add it to the cumulative wear amount to obtain the actual oil film thickness, and substitute it into the transient Reynolds equation to iteratively solve for the oil film pressure; Replace the extrusion term with the velocity at that moment, calculate the oil film force from the oil film pressure, calculate the contact force based on the actual oil film thickness and bearing surface quality, and calculate the lubricating oil friction force based on the oil film pressure; Based on the oil film force, contact force, and lubricating oil friction, calculate the resultant force on the journal, substitute it into the equation of motion to obtain the acceleration, and calculate the position and velocity at the next moment.
[0012] Furthermore, the amount of wear is expressed as oil film thickness:

Let be the axial coordinates of each position in the cylindrical coordinate system. Where c is the number of starts and stops, and c is the radius gap. This represents the cumulative amount of wear and tear.
[0014] Furthermore, the wear amount per cycle is:
[0015] in, This represents the amount of wear accumulated within a time step. The wear coefficient is... For journals and bearings, the hardness of the softer material is... To contact pressure, The linear velocity of the journal surface. For time steps.
[0016] Furthermore, the bearing's load-bearing capacity and stability when partial wear occurs are determined by the overall stiffness of the bearing oil film, which is:

The wear module is used to solve the shaft center trajectory of the sliding bearing in each start-stop working cycle based on the fluid lubrication calculation model. Based on the shaft center trajectory, the wear amount in each cycle is calculated using the Archard sliding wear model. The calculation module is used to calculate the bearing capacity and bearing stability when partial wear occurs based on the fluid lubrication calculation model and the accumulation of wear amount, and to obtain the wear life of the sliding bearing. The comparison module is used to compare the wear life of the sliding bearing with the material fatigue life of the sliding bearing to determine the life of the sliding bearing.

Therefore, those skilled in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications can be made to the embodiments described herein without departing from the scope and spirit of this application.

[0041] Furthermore, the term "and / or" in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.
[0042] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings: See Figures 1 to 3 This invention provides a method for evaluating the life of sliding bearings, which mainly considers two lifespans corresponding to three failure modes of sliding bearings: the wear lifespan corresponding to failure caused by insufficient load-bearing capacity or instability due to partial wear of the bearing, and the fatigue lifespan corresponding to fatigue failure of the material surface when the bearing wear is small but the working time is long.
[0043] The actual bearing life calculation process mainly consists of three parts: fatigue life calculation, bearing wear calculation, and bearing wear life calculation after partial wear. Details of each part are described below, and the relationships between them are as follows: Since fatigue life calculation is relatively quick, fatigue life is calculated first; then the cumulative wear under multiple start-stop cycles is calculated; next, the bearing load capacity and stability under existing wear are evaluated. If the load capacity or stability requirements are not met, the bearing is considered to have failed due to wear; finally, fatigue life and wear life are compared, and the smaller value is the final bearing life.
[0044] Specifically, the following steps are included: Step 1: Calculate fatigue life T1, such as Figure 4 As shown, the maximum oil film pressure of the sliding bearing under various operating conditions is solved based on the fluid lubrication calculation model. with maximum shear stress And calculate the stress amplitude. The Miner's law is used to assess the cumulative lifespan of damage throughout the entire lifecycle, and the number of cycles is obtained based on the rotational speed and operating time under various actual working conditions. The material undergoes The total damage rate suffered by the material in the second cycle was The total damage rate D of the bearing material after operating for its entire life cycle is obtained by summing the damage rates of all operating conditions. When the damage rate reaches 1, the bearing is considered to have undergone fatigue failure. If fatigue failure occurs, the number of cycles at this point is the fatigue life T1.
[0045] When a radial sliding bearing with round bearing shells is operating under normal conditions, the lubricating oil film is sufficient to completely separate the bearing shell and journal surfaces, thus theoretically preventing wear and resulting in an infinitely long theoretical lifespan. However, the materials on the bearing shell and journal surfaces are continuously subjected to the periodic action of the oil film force. For example, in a bearing where the journal rotates and the bearing shell is stationary, the materials on the surface of the journal, especially those at the center, undergo a similar process with each rotation of the journal. Figure 7 The pressure change process shown represents the stress amplitude at the maximum oil film pressure. The combined periodic action of oil film pressure and oil film shear stress can lead to fatigue failure of the surface material, especially under high loads and high speeds, where the large surface stress and high operating frequency can cause rapid fatigue failure.
[0046] The specific calculation process is as follows: The lifespan of the material at the most dangerous location is taken as the lifespan of the entire bearing. Fatigue life is checked at the most dangerous location. The location with the maximum stress amplitude is at the maximum oil film stress, and the location with the maximum shear stress is at the minimum oil film thickness. That is, the stress amplitude at the most dangerous location is taken as the stress amplitude at the most dangerous location for pulsating cyclic stress life check.
[0047] According to the third strength theory, the combined stress amplitude of oil film pressure and oil film shear stress is:
[0048] in, For maximum oil film pressure, This represents the maximum oil film shear stress.
[0049] According to stress amplitude The Miner criterion is used to verify the fatigue life of sliding bearing materials. The material damage rate is assumed to be D, and failure is considered to occur when D=1. Under stress... For a material to break under such conditions, it needs to undergo a certain number of cycles. According to the linear fatigue cumulative damage theory, the material undergoes... The total damage the material suffered after the next cycle was And so on, the material at stress levels The material requires a certain number of cycles to fail under the influence of the action. The material undergoes The total damage rate suffered by the material in the second cycle was .
[0050] Since the start-stop process is very short, we ignore the start-stop process and consider the working state. Using simple steady-state hydrodynamic lubrication theory, we calculate the stress under the corresponding working condition based on the parameters. This stress, combined with the cycle number obtained from the duration of the corresponding working condition, is used to calculate the damage rate for each working condition. The total damage rate of the bearing material after its entire life cycle is calculated by summing the damage rates of all working conditions.
[0051] in, , The number of stress applications corresponding to each working condition. , This represents the number of stress applications required for failure under maximum stress in each working condition. , The calculation formula is:
[0052] Where m is a material-related parameter. for The number of cycles required for material failure under symmetrical cyclic stress. This represents the stress amplitude.
[0053] Step 2: Calculate the wear and tear during a single startup process, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the transient fluid lubrication model is solved to calculate each time step. The combined forces of oil film force, rough peak contact force, and friction force Substitute the equations of motion to solve for the next moment. By repeating the process with parameters such as position at a given time, the shaft center trajectory and wear amount can be obtained.
[0054] Calculating wear using the Archard model requires contact stress, and solving for contact stress necessitates calculating the shaft center trajectory during start-up and shutdown. Therefore, the following nonlinear solution method is employed.
[0055] First, specify the initial state of the axis trajectory, including the starting position. Starting speed With acceleration Calculate the initial oil film thickness distribution based on the starting position. The calculation formula is:
[0056] in, Represents which time step, These represent the angular and axial coordinates of each position in the cylindrical coordinate system. For the radius gap, The relative position of the axis at a certain moment.
[0057] If the bearing currently has wear, the wear amount is superimposed on the corresponding oil film thickness to obtain the actual oil film thickness distribution. The calculation formula is:
[0058] in, This refers to the cumulative amount of wear and tear. This represents the number of times the device has started and stopped.
[0059] Based on actual oil film thickness distribution Substitute into the Reynolds equation to solve for the oil film pressure distribution. The average flow transient Reynolds equation is:
[0060] in, A coefficient related to oil film thickness and surface roughness. For lubricating oil viscosity, The linear velocity of the journal surface. Let be the journal radius. The change in oil film thickness over time is described by the journal center velocity at this moment. .
[0061] The oil film bearing capacity is then calculated by integrating the oil film pressure distribution. The formula for calculating the components in the two coordinate directions is:
[0062] Calculation of rough peak contact force based on Greenwood-Tripp micro-convex peak contact model The formula for calculating the components in the two coordinate directions is:
[0063]
[0064] in, To measure the overall elastic modulus, , , and , These are the elastic modulus and Poisson's ratio of the journal and bearing, respectively. and These represent the radius and density of the surface roughness peaks, respectively; and the film thickness ratio. When the ratio of oil film thickness to surface roughness is less than 4, Conversely, it is 0.
[0065] According to the Arcard formula, the contact pressure is... Substitute this into the solution to calculate the wear amount within this time step. The calculation formula is:
[0066] in, The wear coefficient is... The hardness of the journal and bearing material is determined by the softer material.
[0067] Calculating friction force from oil film pressure distribution The direction is perpendicular to the resultant force of the contact force and points in the direction that opposes the relative motion, causing the journal to climb in the opposite direction of rotation. The calculation formula is:
[0068] like Figure 8 As shown, the oil film bearing capacity of the journal is obtained respectively. Rough peak contact force With friction The components in both directions, added to the external load and gravity, yield the resultant external force on the journal. The position, velocity, and acceleration of the axis at the next moment are obtained from the net external force and the time step. The calculation formula is as follows:
[0069]
[0070] Based on the above steps of the nonlinear shaft center trajectory during the starting and stopping process of the sliding bearing, the shaft center position is determined. The axis motion trajectory is obtained by arranging the time steps t in sequence, and the wear amount at each time step is calculated. The accumulated wear during the Tth start-stop cycle is obtained by summing the data. .
[0071] Step 3: Accumulated wear and tear, such as Figure 6 As shown, shaded area 1 represents the worn area, shaded area 2 represents the original bearing profile, and shaded area 3 represents the worn bearing. The oil film thickness increases at the corresponding wear location, which will affect the wear generated during each start-up and shutdown. This is equivalent to the wear depth of each corresponding node, which is then summed to form the cumulative wear amount. The calculation formula is:
[0072] Step 4: Repeat steps 2 and 3 to obtain the cumulative wear of the bearing during the continuous start-stop process.
[0073] Step 5: Determine the wear life T2, such as Figure 2 As shown, a wear life test is performed after a certain period, including stability testing and load-bearing capacity testing. Stability testing verifies whether instability will occur after bearing wear. This is done by initially determining the bearing's stiffness and damping coefficients, then performing a complete shaft trajectory calculation to observe whether instability occurs. Load-bearing capacity is determined based on whether the bearing's stabilized film thickness ratio (the ratio of minimum oil film thickness to surface roughness) is less than the minimum film thickness ratio, i.e., the minimum oil film thickness. Is it less than the rated minimum film thickness? If the value is less than 1, the load-bearing capacity is considered insufficient. If instability or insufficient load-bearing capacity occurs, the period T at this moment is recorded as the wear life T2. Then the cycle of step four ends.
[0074] After partial wear, the load-bearing capacity of a circular bearing with the same eccentricity changes with the amount of wear, and its stiffness and damping also change systematically. Combined with commonly used bearing stability assessment methods, as shown in Figure 10, the overall stiffness of the bearing oil film... The overall stiffness of the bearing oil film after partial wear is a necessary condition for bearing stability. The value decreases as wear increases, therefore it is believed that bearings are more prone to instability after wear.
[0075]
[0076] in, These represent the stiffness and damping of the bearing, respectively. , , , , , , and These are all dynamic characteristics of bearings.
[0077] When the load-carrying capacity of a sliding bearing decreases, the eccentricity will increase to adapt to the load under the same load, which will lead to a decrease in oil film thickness. Insufficient minimum oil film thickness will result in increased bearing friction torque and wear, making it prone to problems such as rubbing and bearing seizure. Therefore, the minimum oil film thickness should be... Failure is determined when the film thickness is less than the rated minimum thickness.
[0078] The stability of the oil film can be directly determined by solving the nonlinear shaft center trajectory of the bearing, as shown in Figure 10. A bearing with good stability will have its shaft center trajectory converge to a point after startup, while instability will result in irregular whirls. However, for the sake of calculation simplicity, the overall stiffness of the bearing oil film is used instead. Instability can be determined when the overall stiffness of the bearing oil film is... Then, the shaft center trajectory can be calculated to determine whether the bearing is unstable.
[0079] Step Six: Compare the fatigue life T1 from Step One with the wear life T2 from Step Five, and take the smaller value as the predicted final life of the bearing.
[0080] The present invention will be further described in detail below through specific embodiments: Example 1: This embodiment is an example of life verification for a certain bearing. It is known that the surface material of the bearing is brass, and the bearing parameters are shown in Table 1.
[0081] Table 1 Bearing Parameter Table
[0082] Step 1: Before wear occurs, calculate the stress on the bearing surface material based on the maximum oil film pressure and maximum shear stress under steady state. Perform a start-up calculation to obtain the bearing's stable position at an eccentricity of 0.959 under this operating condition. The maximum oil film pressure at this position during stable operation is as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the maximum oil film pressure , maximum shear stress The combined calculated stress is:
[0083] The fatigue life N is substituted into the calculation conditions:
[0084] The total working cycle is 20,000 hours, and the number of stress exposures (n) at a speed of 1000 rpm is:
[0085] Substituting this into the equation, we obtain the surface material damage rate D over the entire process under this working condition:
[0086] Due to material failure rate Therefore, it is believed that no fatigue failure will occur within 20,000 hours, and the fatigue life is... .
[0087] Step Two: Establish as follows Figure 3 The model shown is a calculation model for multiple-start wear considering rough peak contact. The numerical model was solved in a computer, and the results are as follows: Figure 13 The shaft center trajectory for each startup process is shown in Figure 9(a). Based on the shaft center trajectory and the Archard wear model, the single wear amount is obtained as shown in Figure 9(a).
[0088] Step 3: After each start-up, add the previous wear amount to the calculated oil film thickness. Repeat this process until the minimum oil film thickness is insufficient or the stability is insufficient. Since the wear amount of a single start-up is very small, it usually takes multiple accumulations of wear amount to affect the bearing operation. Therefore, it is necessary to accumulate the wear amount of many starts at the corresponding position of the bearing bush. Considering that the wear growth process is very linear, the wear amount of multiple starts can be approximated as equal. The wear amount of 80,000 starts is equivalent to the sum of 1,000 times the wear amount of 80 starts, as shown in Figure 9(a), which represents the total wear amount between the 46,000th and 47,000th starts. Figure 9(b) shows the total wear amount after accumulating 47,000 starts.
[0089] Step Four: As Figure 11 As shown, in the 47th calculation, i.e., the 47,000th start-up, the oil film thickness changed due to accumulated wear compared to before wear. Figure 12 The oil film pressure shown has an adverse effect, reducing the load-bearing capacity of the oil film. In the calculations, the minimum film thickness ratio (the ratio of minimum oil film thickness to surface roughness) consistently fails to meet the requirement of being greater than 5 until stability is achieved. Therefore, it is considered that the load-bearing capacity after 47,000 starts does not meet the requirements. This is due to the overall stiffness of the bearing oil film throughout the process. Furthermore, the shaft trajectory did not become unstable, indicating that the bearing has not yet reached its stable lifespan. Therefore, 47,000 starts, or 11,750 hours, are taken as the wear life T2 of the bearing.
[0090] Step 6: Take the smaller value between fatigue life T1 and wear life T2, that is, 11750 hours of T2, as the predicted final life of the bearing.
[0091] Example 2: This invention also provides a sliding bearing life assessment system, such as... Figure 14As shown, the system includes: a fatigue module, a wear module, a calculation module, and a comparison module.
[0092] The fatigue module is used to solve the maximum oil film pressure and maximum shear stress under various working conditions based on the fluid lubrication calculation model, and to perform full-cycle damage accumulation assessment using the Miner's rule to calculate the material fatigue life of the sliding bearing. The wear module is used to solve the shaft center trajectory of the sliding bearing in each start-stop working cycle based on the fluid lubrication calculation model. Based on the shaft center trajectory, the wear amount in each cycle is calculated using the Archard sliding wear model. The calculation module is used to calculate the bearing capacity and bearing stability when partial wear occurs based on the fluid lubrication calculation model and the accumulation of wear amount, and to obtain the wear life of the sliding bearing. The comparison module is used to compare the wear life of the sliding bearing with the material fatigue life of the sliding bearing to determine the life of the sliding bearing.
[0093] It is understood that the sliding bearing life assessment system provided by the present invention corresponds to the sliding bearing life assessment method provided in the foregoing embodiments. The relevant technical features of the sliding bearing life assessment system can be referred to the relevant technical features of the sliding bearing life assessment method, and will not be repeated here.

Based on the fluid lubrication calculation model and the accumulation of wear, the bearing load capacity and bearing stability when partial wear occurs are calculated, and the wear life of the sliding bearing is obtained. The life of a sliding bearing is determined by comparing its wear life with its material fatigue life.
