Question

 A 100 mm long and 60 mm diameter journal bearing supports a load of 2500 N at 600 r.p.m. If the room
temperature is 20°C, what should be the viscosity of oil to limit the bearing surface temperature to 60°C?
The diametral clearance is 0.06 mm and the energy dissipation coefficient is based on the projected area of
bearing is 210 W/m2/°C.
