The viscosity values given for the typical 40% water-in-oil emulsion are for very low shear rates. For this emulsion the viscosity will decrease by 10% at shear rates of about 3000s-' and by 20% at shear rates of about 10 000s-'. C6.6 Plain bearing lubrication e7 Mineral oils and greases are the most suitable lubricants for plain bearings in most applications. Synthetic oils may be required ifsystem temperatures are very high. Water and process fluids can also be used as lubricants in certain applications. The general characteristics of these main classes of lubricants are summarised in Table 7.1.

If the viscosity is too low the bearing will have inadequate load-carrying capacity, whilst if the viscosity is too high the power loss and the operating temperature will be unnecessarily high. Figure 7.1 gives a guide to the value of the minimum allowable viscosity for a range of speeds and loads. It should be noted that these values apply for a fluid at the mean bearing temperature. The viscosity alf mineral oils falls with increasing tempera- ture. The viscosity/temperature characteristics of typical mineral oils are shown in Figure 7.2. The most widely used methods of supplying lubricating oils to plain bearings are listed in Table 7.2 The tubricatinq properties of greases are determined to a large extent by the viscosity of the base oil and the type of thickener used in their manufacture. The section of this handbook on greases summarises the properties of the various types. Additive oils are not required for plain bearing lubrica- tion but other requirements of the system may demand their use. Additives and certain contaminants may create potential corrosion problems. Tables 7.3 and 7.4 give a guide to additive and bearing material requirements, with examples of situations in which problems can arise.

Guides to the selection of a suitable grease taking account of the above factors are given in Tables 8.2 and 8.3. The appropriate maximum speeds for grease lubrication of a given bearing type are given in Figure 8.1. The life required from the grease is also obviously important and Figure 8.2 gives a guide to the variation of grease operating life with percentage speed rating and tempera- ture for a high-quality lithium hydroxystearate grease as derived from ]Figure 8.1. (These greases give the highest speed ratings.) When shock loading and/or high operating temperatures tend to shake the grease out of the covers into the bearing, a grease of a harder consistency should be chosen, e.g. a no. 3 grease instead of a no. 2 grease. Note: it should be recognised that the curves in Figures 8.1 and 8.2 can only be a guide. Considerable variations in life are possible depending on precise details of the application, e.g. vibration, air flow across the bcearing, clearances, etc. Table 8.2 The effect of the method of appli- cation on the choice of a suitable grade of grease System NLGI grade no.

Calculation of relubrication interval The relubrication period for ball and roller bearings may be estimated using Figures 8.1 and 8.2. The following is an example in terms of a typical application: Required to know : Approximate relubrication period for the following: Bearing type : Medium series bearing 60 mm bore. Cage : Pressed cage centred on balls. Speed : 950 rev/nnin. Temperature : 120°C [The bearing temperature (not merely the local ambient tem- perature) i.e. either measured or estimated as closely as possible.] Position : Vertical shaft. Grease : Lithium grade 3, Duty : Continuous. From Figure 8.1 : 60 mm bore position on the lower edge of the graph intersects the medium series curve at approxi- mately 3100 revlmin. Factor for pressed cages on balls is about 1.5; thus 3100 x 1.5 = 4650 revlmin. Factor for vertical mounting is 0.75. Thus 4650~0.75 = 3488 sev/min. This is the rnaximum speed rating ( 100%). Now actual speed = 950 rev/min; therefore percentage - 9 50 348% of maximum = -x 100 = 27% (say 25% approxi- mately). In Figure 8.2 the 12D"C vertical line intersects the 25% speed rating curve for the grade 3 lithium grease at approximately 1300 hours, which is the required answer. Relubrication of ball and roller bearings Relubrication may be carried out in two ways, depending on the circumstances : (a) Replenishment, by which is meant the addition of fresh grease to the original charge. (b) Repacking, which normally signifies that the bearing is dismounted and all grease removed and discarded, the bearing then being cleaned and refilled with fresh grease. An alternative, if design permits, is to flush the bearing with fresh grease in situ. (Grease relief valves have been developed for this purpose.) The quantity required per shot is an arbitrary amount. Requirement is only that sufficient grease is injected to disturb the charge in the bearing and to displace same through the seals, or grease relief valves. A guide can be obtained from Dxw W=- 200 where W is quantity (g) and w is width (mm) D is outside diameter (rnm) If grease relief valves are not fitted, the replenishment charge should not exceed 5% of the original charge. After grease has been added to a bearing, the housing vent plug (if fitted) should be left out for a few minutes after start-up in order to allow excess grease to escape. A better method, if conditions allow, is to push some of the static grease in the cover back into the bearing to redistribute the grease throughout the assembly. This method is likely to be unsatisfactory when operating temperatures exceed about 100°C.

Oils containing extreme pressure (EP) additives are normally only necessary for bearings where there is appreciable sliding, e.g. taper- roller or spherical-roller bearings, operating under heavy or shock loads, or if required for associated components, e.g. gears. The nomogram, Figure 8.3, shows how to select more precisely the viscosity needed for known bore and speed when the operating temperatures can be estimated. If the operating temperature is not known or cannot be estimated then the manufacturer's advice should be sought.

The point of intersection of the horizontal line, which represents this oil viscosity, and the vertical line from the working temperature shows the grade of oil to be selected. If the point of intersection lies between two oils, the thicker oil should be chosen.
