Abstract

Water-lubricated rubber tail bearing is an important part of ship shafting, its performance affects the reliability and concealment of ships. Therefore, it is of great significance to carry out experimental research on improving the tribological properties of water-lubricated rubber bearings by using surface texture technology. The tribological properties of non-textured and textured rubber slats were tested to study the influence of multi-factor interaction on the tribological properties of the slats. The experimental results show that the friction torque and wearing capacity of textured ones are lower than non-textured ones. Specific pressure, rotational speed, water temperature, test time and other parameters affect the tribological properties of bearings. With the increase of water temperature, the friction torque of rubber slats tends to increase, while the effect of test time is just the opposite.
