Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The program involved analysis and experimentation relating to thermal effects in two important systems: elastohydrodynamically (EHD) lubricated bearings or gears, and high-current-density electrical brushes. A thermodynamic heat balance has been applied to an EHD contact utilizing experimental values for surface pressure and temperature distributions. The results showed that the magnitude of compressive and shear heating in the lubricant were higher than that due to convection to the fluid. Experimental measurements of axial film thickness profiles for rolling/sliding disks were made using an X-ray shadow technique. The objective was to determine if the profile under load will vary due to nonuniform heating and thermal expansion at the disk contact leading to scuffing failure. No significant changes in profile were measured, but a limited range of experimental conditions were studied. A high-current-density electrical slip ring apparatus was constructed and used to study the effect of material properties on the contact between the stationary brush and the copper slip ring. The results showed that above a particular threshold speed, the brushes exhibited a sparking phenomenon which consisted of periodic motion of a cluster of small sparks at the brush/slip ring interface.

Book Thermal and Chemical Effects in High Pressure Rolling Sliding Contacts

Download or read book Thermal and Chemical Effects in High Pressure Rolling Sliding Contacts written by J. w Brasch and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a previous report to the Office of Naval Research, several thermal and thermomechanical aspects of tribology pertinent to rolling/sliding contacts were described in some detail. In this final report, there is presented an account of related work on surface chemical reactions occurring at high pressures. A model lubricant system - lauric acid in dodecane - in contact with a simulated bearing surface - thin films of vacuum-deposited iron - was employed in these studies. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy was used to detect the formation of species arising from chemical reactions occurring between the acid molecules and the substrate. Details of the experimental technique and its application to the present program are given. (Author).

Book Engineering Tribology

Download or read book Engineering Tribology written by G.W. Stachowiak and published by Butterworth-Heinemann. This book was released on 1993-06-30 with total page 901 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interdisciplinary nature of tribology encompasses knowledge drawn from disciplines such as mechanical engineering, materials science, chemistry and physics. The interaction between these different fields of knowledge to achieve the final result, the control of friction and wear, is reviewed in this volume. This interdisciplinary approach has proven to be a very successful way of analysing friction and wear problems. In many cases tribology is viewed as an inaccessible subject which does not produce useful answers. In this volume the authors redress this problem by providing a comprehensive treatment of the subject. A basic feature of the book is the emphasis on describing various concepts in an accessible manner for the benefit of non-specialists. This principle is applied from the beginning of the book, where the reader is introduced to the fundamental concept of tribology. This concept is then often used to show how the various topics in tribology are interrelated to form one coherent subject. A direct graphical illustration of the mechanisms controlling tribological phenomena is presented. Carefully prepared diagrams allow rapid appreciation of the basic ideas and facts in tribology. The numerical analysis of hydrodynamic lubrication is supported by a number of computer programs which are included in the book. The control of wear is given extensive treatment with a thorough discussion of lubricant additives, solid lubricants and surface coatings. The effectiveness of coatings in suppressing specific forms of wear is analyzed together with the methods of coatings deposition. The book contains 474 figures and 44 tables. More than 1000 references are provided to give the reader access to more specialized information if required. The volume is intended to provide graduates in engineering or materials science with an understanding of the fundamental concepts of friction, wear and lubrication.

Book Thermomechanical Effects in Sliding Wear

Download or read book Thermomechanical Effects in Sliding Wear written by Ralph A. Burton and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When sliding occurs with significant frictional heating, thermoelastic deformation may lead to a transition from smoothly distributed asperity contact to a condition where the surfaces are supported by a few thermal asperities. This circumstance may be associated with a transition to a condition of severe wear because of the elevated contact pressure and temperature, and also because of production of tensile stresses. This second stress component may lead to heat checking whereupon the rough checked surface acts to abrade the mating material. The factors influencing transition are discussed, including wear, cooling, and hydrodynamic lubrication. The transitioned state is also discussed as to stress distribution, rate of movement of the contact patches and temperatures. (Author).

Book Thermal Effects in Rolling Sliding Contact

Download or read book Thermal Effects in Rolling Sliding Contact written by T. A. Dow and published by . This book was released on 1982 with total page 59 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report discusses the results of a series of pressure and temperature distributions measured between a pair of elastohydrodynamically (EHD) lubricated disks. Three lubricants have been studied: a synthetic paraffinic oil (XRM-109F), polyphenyl ether (OS-124), and a traction fluid (Santotrac 50). Pressure and temperature readings throughout the contact are presented as three-dimensional plots. Measurements of the EHD film thickness, and the tractive force between disks under slip conditions are also presented. A method for one-dimensional mapping of tractive force is introduced. An instrumental part of the method is the data handling capability of a digitizing oscilliscope which captures signals from the traction probe. The oscilliscope's capabilities are greatly expanded by a microprocessor which controls its functions. Preliminary results from this method of local traction measurement are presented. (Author).

Book The Role of Thermoelastic Effects in the Scuffing Failure of Rolling Sliding EHD Contacts

Download or read book The Role of Thermoelastic Effects in the Scuffing Failure of Rolling Sliding EHD Contacts written by R. R. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-dimensional numerical solution of the thermal Reynolds', elasticity, and energy equations resulted in predictions of the flow velocities and temperatures within the lubricant film between a crown roller and a rotating shaft. The results showed a good agreement with previously measured experimental data on the surface temperatures in an EHD contact and on the resulting frictional torques for both rolling and sliding. A pressure and temperature dependent viscosity was assumed for the synthetic paraffinic hydrocarbon used in the experiments. This model allowed an evaluation of the relative importance of the generation, viscous dissipation, and compression terms in the energy equation at different stations along the mid-film line of contact. Based on the insight about the relative importance of terms as found in the numerical simulation, convenient expressions were developed for an approximate method of predicting the mid-film temperature and sliding friction force. The influence of thermal expansion of the contact between a crowned surface in sliding contact with a rotating cylindrical surface was included in a model of thermoelastic instability to predict the onset of scuffing failure. The simplified approach assumed a heat balance between the generation from friction and the heat conducted into the cylinders. (RH).
