The theoretical section of the study was conducted with the Kiss-SOFT program while the experimental part was conducted on a TM 290 hydrodynamic radial journal bearing experimental set. In this study we examine the effect of bearing loads and different proportion of poured additive in alkali-based lubrication oil on friction coefficient. Friction coefficient was calculated from the frictional torque. Consequently, theoretically calculated and experimentally tested friction coefficients were compared and the optimum oil additive ratio was determined.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCoefficient of FrictionOil AdditiveStatically Loaded Radial Journal BearingArticle191117127Q4N/A
