Abstract
This paper proposes a 3D CFD model to compute power friction losses due to journal bearings. Computations were carried out for various oil entrance temperatures and rotational speeds. Results are presented and discussed, making comparisons with some sets of experiments carried out in the CNAM laboratory using a special turbocharger test rig equipped with a torque meter.
