Abstract
The main goal of this research is to evaluate the surface roughness level on the performance of journal bearing using the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method. Aiming to further enhance the acoustic and tribological lubrication performance, a novel heterogeneous rough/smooth pattern is introduced. The results reveal that increasing the roughness level can improve the load support and reduce the bearing noise. However, an undesirable scenario is observed, namely increased friction force of the heterogeneous rough/smooth bearing.
