Lubrication Analysis of a Connecting-Rod Bearing in a High-Speed Engine. Part I: Rod and Bearing Deformation
Tribology Transactions
; Analysis was performed on a connecting rod assembly operating at 6,500 rpm. The analysis was based on the finite element method, which includes effects of interference fitted bearings and pre-loaded bolts. The rod inertia force associated with the gas pressure was found to have a significant effect
