Experimental and computational investigation into oil shedding from an aeroengine ball bearing

Aero-engines contain ball bearings that support the shafts and react to the loads. During the investigation of improvements and the pursuit for higher bypass ratio, propulsion and thermal efficiency, regimes are explored where an aero-engine’s core is subjected to higher mechanical and thermal loadi...
