Book Description
Excerpt from An Investigation Into the Breaking Down Points for Perfect Lubrication Under Varying Speeds, Pressures and Temperatures: A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Bachelor of Science, Mechanical Engineering Course, University of Wisconsin, 1905 Friction, the highway robber of mechanical energy, as it is often aptly termed, has of late been the subject of much experimental research. Until recent years very little was known about the friction of bearings, but recently extensive tests have been made which have thrown considerable light on this subject, and have given us some very exact information. At the present day there are no journal bearings made which it is certain will not run hot sooner or later in the course of their Operation and many of the experiments performed in this connection have been made in the hope of gaining some alleviation of this trouble. Designers have been made to realize that journal friction is one of the most important points in machine construction.
