Design and Test of Self-Lubricating Bearing for High Temperature Gas-Cooled Reactor

摘要

Usually, any kind of mechanical bearing needs to be lubricated by oil or grease when it works. However, those bearings used in high temperature gas cooled reactor are required to work in high temperature up to 150℃ without oil or grease lubrication. To solve this problem, a new kind of self-lubricating bearing is designed with great effort, and its performance is tested with a customized bearing test rig. The final experimental result approves the effectiveness of the new self-lubricating bearing.
