Journal bearings are widely used to support the shaft of industrial machinery with heavy loads,such as compressors,turbines and centrifugal pumps. The main objective of this study is to explore the design possibility of a journal bearing and to carry out flow analysis using ANSYS. The main aim is to design a journal bearing with two different materials and compare the results of the analysis experimentally. The use of fillers and glass fibres has also been reported to be very effective in reducing wear under adhesive conditions. The reactions of fillers with counter steel surface contributed to the formation of a thin,stable and adherent transfer film,resulting in lower coefficient of friction and in turn higher wear resistance. Hence,in these research work the addition of Al2O3 and SiC as a filler material in glass fibre system has been taken up for investigation from the point of characterizing them for friction and wear behaviour.For this purpose a full journal bearing is considered. In order to apply forces,divide the bearing hole into equal parts and then apply the pressure on each part as per the calculated value. The empirical values will be simulated in ANSYS and checked for accuracy. © 2016,International Journal of Pharmacy and Technology. All rights reserved.
