Abstract
A journal bearing, in which a lower half carrier ring is disposed on the outer peripheral side of a horizontally installed rotating shaft, and an upstream side pad and a downstream side pad are disposed on the inner side of the lower half carrier ring, includes an upstream side oil supply portion and downstream side oil supply portion which supply lubricant oil to the upstream side pad and downstream side pad, the bearing being characterized in that the supply quantity of lubricant oil supplied from downstream side oil supply nozzles of the downstream side oil supply portion is adjusted so as to be less than the supply quantity of lubricant oil supplied from upstream side oil supply nozzles of the upstream side oil supply portion.
