🔍 Key Concepts

• Plain (journal) bearing start-up behavior • Difference between boundary, mixed-film, and full-film (hydrodynamic) lubrication • How oil film thickness changes as shaft speed increases

💭 Think About

• At the instant of start-up, is the shaft already supported by a full oil film, or is there more metal-to-metal contact? • As speed builds up and an oil wedge forms, what happens to metal-to-metal contact and film thickness? • Which lubrication mode corresponds to almost no direct metal contact, and when during speed-up is that most likely to occur?

✅ Before You Answer

• Be clear on which mode has most metal-to-metal contact (boundary) and which has least metal-to-metal contact (full-film). • Think about how the oil film gradually builds from rest to operating speed rather than jumping directly to the best condition. • Verify that the final mode in your chosen sequence matches steady, normal operating speed conditions for a healthy bearing.
