@Viralkumar.
No it is not a hydrodynamic bearing.

Is it hydrodynamic bearing?

It can take axial and thrust load during working condition.

Why we choose this type of bearing?

Instead of saying plane bearings we can call it as journal bearing.

The main reason behind using plain bearings is primarily for its high load bearing capacity since it offers maximum bearing contact surface. Secondly, the friction for this bearing will be a little higher compared to other types of bearings but it will be overcome with suitable lubrication arrangements. Third important point is that this is they only bearing type that can be split and assembled for easy installation as in case of crankshafts.

This type of bearing offers minimum friction then other. In case of high fluctuation speed & load.
