Material Characterization and Influence of Sliding Speed and Pressure on Friction and Wear Behavior of Self-Lubricating Bearing Materials for Hydropower Applications

Nowadays, hydropower plants are forced to have more frequent power control and the self-lubricated bearings used in the applications are one of the most critical components affected by the continuously changing operating conditions. In this study, microstructure and composition of two commercially a...
