Abstract
Abstract
MHPS and MHI suggest HP/IP/LP separate casing and one bearing/rotor (one bearing between two casings) type steam turbine. To design this type of shaft arrangement, journal bearing that supports high specific load with superior oil film static and dynamic characteristics is demanded. In this paper, it is shown that 610 mm diameter direct lubricated two pads bearing which can operate at high specific load has been developed. Also, it is confirmed that its good bearing characteristics in full scale test.
