Data for: Improved design process of dry-running radial plastic plain bearings by coupling laboratory tests and component simulation

In order to support the design process of dry sliding polymeric journal bearings, a novel hardware-in-the-loop process has been developed:

A specific sub-step in this process is the validation of a chosen set of bearing and shaft dimensions with respect to operational clearance and the prevention of jamming due to thermal expansion. The data represents the exemplary hardware-in-the-loop test of the above conference paper. Columns A-N represent data measured on the Block-on-Ring tribometer that was utilized for the test and columns O-S represent data that was calculated according to the described procedure. Names of physical quantities and their units are included in the form of two header lines.
