Combined thrust radial bearing of a submarine main shaft – Design and analysis of failure
PublicationThis paper presents an analysis of the combined thrust radial bearing of a submarine propulsion shaft. The lubrication system of the bearing is based on a fixed ring. The efficiency of the lubrication system depends on the shaft speed and temperature, which affects oil viscosity. In turn, the thrust bearing load also depends on the rotational speed of the shaft, because as the speed increases, the drag of the ship increases simultaneously,...

Degradation of ferritic X10CrAlSi18 stainless steel caused by slurry
PublicationThe slurry erosion tests of ferritic X10CrAlSi18 steel were carried out using a slurry pot device. In order to investigate the erosion process, two series of tests were performed: first one with a constant impact velocity of 5 m/s, 7 m/s and 9 m/s and the second one, during which the impact velocity was changed after every exposure. During each test, an influence of test conditions on volume loss, surface hardness and roughness...
