Ship gas turbine bearings are subjected to heavy loads and intricate interface micromorphologies, predominantly operate in a mixed lubrication regime. Excessive asperity relative sliding can cause transient high-temperature spikes at contact points, leading to scuffing failures. Dynamic parameters such as bearing friction and clearance, along with vibrations causing fluctuating velocities and loads, further influence the lubrication condition that, in its turn, can increase the risk of scuffing. This study focuses on oil-lubricated gas turbine bearings, accounting for their typical transient working conditions and real surface roughness. The coupling characteristics of ball bearing dynamics, lubrication, and flash temperature are explored. Findings indicate that the most severe contact conditions occur at azimuth angles of 0° and 360°. The risk of ball Scuffing failure exceeds that of the inner raceway. As axial load increases under the azimuth angle of 360°, the area with zero film thickness is increasing, elevating the chances of asperity contact, friction coefficient, and interface temperature, which is detrimental to lubrication. To mitigate pitting and scuffing failures, it's recommended to maintain the bearing's maximum hertz pressure below 1.21 GPa.
