In the paper, on the basis of the equation of motion of an incompressible lubricant having the micro-polar properties for the case of a ""thin layer"", the equation of continuity, Darcy and the formula for the energy dissipation rate for determining the function Ф (θ), caused by the molten surface of the bearing bush covered with a low-melting metallic melt of a carrier asymptotic solution by the thermal parameter K. Using a self-similar solution for the zeroth approximation, i.e. without taking into account the melt of the low-melting metallic melt, and for the first approximation, taking into account the low-melting metallic melt, the velocity and pressure fields in the lubricating and porous layers are determined, and the basic performance characteristics of the radial slide bearing are determined. The characteristic permeability of the porous layer and the melt of the surface of the bearing bush, coated with a low-melting metallic melt, on the load capacity and frictional force are estimated.
