What r the properties and holdng down arrangemnt for a camshft bearing of a large 2 stk marine diesel engine?

Question

i need to know if the camshaft bearing is in anyway (in terms of properties) different than crankshaft bearing and wht is its holding down arrangement in sulzer and MAN B&W engines.

Answer 1

Camshaft bearings are typically smaller and hence different than the crankshaft bearings.

Did you say 2 Stroke Marine diesel? I am not sure if 2 stroke diesels exist. How many cylinders is the engine?

the bearing would be held down conventionally i.e. with the outer race in the housing and the inner on the camshaft.
