ISO 7902-2:1998 Hydrodynamic plain journal bearings under steady-state conditions - Circular cylindrical bearings. Part 2: Functions used in the calculation procedure

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and nongovernmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 7902-2 was prepared by Technical Committees ISO/TC 123, Plain bearings, Subcommittee SC 4, Methods of calculation of plain bearings.
ISO 7902 consists of the following parts, under the general title Hydrodynamic plain journal bearings under steady-state conditions — Circular cylindrical bearings:
— Part 1: Calculation procedure
— Part 2: Functions used in the calculation procedure
— Part 3: Permissible operational parameters
Annex A of this part of ISO 7902 is for information only.
1 ScopeThis part of ISO 7902 specifies the values of the basic functions used in the calculation procedure for oil-lubricated circular cylindrical hydrodynamic bearings under conditions of full lubrication.
The values are given for the assumptions and boundary conditions given in ISO 7902-1. The values necessary for the calculation may be determined from the tables of bearing characteristics, the graphs and from the equations.
The descriptions of the symbols used and calculation examples are given in ISO 7902-1.
