A tilting pad radial journal bearing improved in hardness and cooling efficiency is provided to suppress vibration of a radial journal bearing and thus to prevent overheat of a bearing pad. A tilting pad radial journal bearing improved in hardness and cooling efficiency includes upper and lower retainers(12), a fastening bolt, and four bearing pad segments(11). The upper and the lower retainers are fixed by the fastening bolt into a ring shape. The four bearing pad segments are accommodated in the upper and the lower retainers. The bearing pad segments are disposed in a direction orthogonal to a vertical and a horizontal centerline of a rotary shaft, and coupled to a pin(13) to be rotated about the center of the pin and tilted depending on an external profile of the rotary shaft. |
