Studies of elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) frequently utilize the phenomenon optical interference which is exhibited when an illuminated steel ball in contact with a partially Cr-coated glass disc conjunction lubricant layer known refractive index. The use and chromium surfaces enables lubricants having similar indices to be examined. EHL composed two microscopically thin layers: Cr coating film, bounded by ball. That two-beam method used research may induce significant errors...
Abstract The apparent viscosities of liquid lubricants at high pressures measured using an impact viscometer have been reported in previous research to be time-dependent. In the work here, microviscometer technique has further developed give measurements true shear stress and rate, allowing studies rheological behavior without any initial assumptions about flow properties. temporal variation viscosity is shown a shear-thinning effect. Under pressures, examined exhibited non-Newtonian...
The overhead conductor system (OCS) could be one of the most economical and feasible engineering solutions to problem how transmit electrical energy intercity trains (typically at 25 kV AC) or urban/suburban 1.5 DC) along open tunnel routes. However, consumption contact wire collector strips due wear tear impose a severe cost on railway operator should interaction between couple formed by OCS pantograph poor. Following completion several improvement projects, this paper examines factors that...
This paper presents a deliberately designed elastohydrodynamical lubrication (EHL) experiment for the study of individual effect limiting shear stress and wall slippage. Very slow entrainment speeds were employed to avoid influential heating oils high viscosities chosen ensure that conjunction was under typical EHL. An anomalous EHL film, characterized by dimple at inlet region, obtained. Literature revealed this reported in some numerical studies taking into consideration...
This article presents an original idea: the use of metal foams to store unexcited magnetorheological fluid (MRF) in such a way that mixture can be propelled when excited. work is motivated by desire overcome need for costly dynamic seals conventional MRF dampers. The results foam characteristics, possible changes content MRF, and responses soaked excited are presented. A plate-on-plate test rig was developed investigate performance MRF-soaked set-up. shearing performance, response time, gap...
