A novel continuously adjustable hydrodynamic bearing
A novel form of adjustable fluid film bearing has been devised whereby the hydrodynamic conditions can be changed in a continuously controlled manner during operation. The principle can be applied to conventionally orientated journal bearings, i.e.

Performance of large-bore tapered-roller bearings under combined radial and thrust load at shaft speeds to 15,000 rpm [PDF]
The performance of 120.65-mm bore tapered roller bearings was investigated at shaft speeds up to 15,000 rpm. Temperature distribution and bearing heat generation were determined as a function of shaft speed, radial and thrust loads, lubricant flow rate ...
