This paper presents the effects of transient rough surface air-soft elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of rollers for soft material. The time independent modified Reynolds equation, and elasticity equation were solved numerically using finite different method, Newton-Raphson method and multigrid multilevel method to obtain the film pressure profiles and film thickness in the contact region. The effects of overload, surface roughness and time period are examined. The simulation results show surface roughness has effect on film thickness. The impact of sudden load condition is that the air film pressure increases but film thickness decreases. The minimum film thickness decreases when the amplitude of surface roughness increases. Increasing of impact from sudden loads resulted in minimal film thickness decrease.

This paper presents the effects of rough surface air-soft elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) of rollers for soft material under the effect of air molecular slip. The time independent modified Reynolds equation and elasticity equation were solved numerically using finite different method, Newton-Raphson method and multigrid multilevel methods were used to obtain the film pressure profiles and film thickness in the contact region. The effects of amplitude of surface roughness, modulus of elasticity and air inlet temperature are examined.

The effects of surface roughness and surface force on thin film elastohydrodynamic lubrication (TFEHL) circular contact problems are analyzed and discussed under constant load condition. The multi-level multi-integration (MLMI) algorithm and the Gauss-Seidel iterative method are used to simultaneously solve the average Reynolds type equation, surface force equations, the load balance equation, the rheology equations, and the elastic deformation equation. The simulation results reveal that the difference between the TFEHL model and the traditional EHL model increase with decreasing film thickness. The effects of surface forces become significant as the film thickness becomes thinner. The surface forces have obvious effects in the Hertzian contact region. The oscillation phenomena in pressure and film thickness come mainly from the action of solvation forces

This paper presents the effect of surface roughness on soft elastohydrodynamic lubrication in circular contact with non-Newtonian lubricant. The time independent modified Reynolds equation, elastic equation and lubricant viscosity equation were formulated for compressible fluid. Perturbation method, Newton-Raphson method, finite different method and full adaptive multigrid method were implemented to obtain the film pressure, film thickness profiles and friction coefficient in the contact region at various the amplitude of surface roughness, surface speed of sphere, modulus of elasticity and radius of sphere. The simulation results showed that the film thickness in contact region depended on the profile of surface roughness. The minimum film thickness decreased but maximum film pressure and friction coefficient increase when the amplitude of surface roughness and modulus of elasticity increased. For increasing surface speeds, the minimum film thickness and friction coefficient increase but maximum film pressure decreases. When radius of sphere increases, the minimum film thickness increases but maximum film pressure and friction coefficient decrease.

This paper presents the effect of surface roughness on the performance characteristics of elastohydrodynamic lubrication with non-Newtonian fluid base on Carreau viscosity model in elliptical contact. The time independent modified Reynolds equation and elastic equation were formulated for compressible fluid. Perturbation method, Newton Raphson method and full adaptive multigrid method were implemented to obtain the film pressure, film thickness profiles and friction coefficient in the contact region at various amplitude of combined surface roughness, applied loads, speeds and elliptic ratio. Simulation results show surface roughness amplitude has significant affected the film pressure in the contact region. The minimum film thickness decreases but friction coefficient increases when the combined roughness and applied loads increases. The minimum film thickness and friction coefficient both increase as the relative velocity of the ball and the plate is increase. For increasing the elliptic ratio, the minimum film thickness increases but the friction coefficient decreases.

The Impact

In this paper, the mathematical model of gear elastohydrodynamic lubrication is presented. The transient impact operating condition and underdamped load condition are considered. Taking thermal effect and squeeze effect into account, the full numerical solution of gear pairs is obtained. In this numerical calculation, multigrid method is applied to compute the film pressure; multigrid integration technique is used to calculate the solid surface deformation; column by column scanning technique is employed to calculate temperature. The simulation results show that an entrapped film dimple forms under transient impact condition; transient impact causes remarkable increases in film pressure and film temperature. Compared with the normal case the minimum thickness of the impact case is smaller, which is not beneficial to teeth lubrication. Thermal effect induces some decreases in film thickness because of the viscosity–temperature relationship. Vibrational load with high damped frequency causes greater increases in film thickness and greater decreases in the coefficient of friction than that of low damped frequency. However, the film temperature of high damped frequency is higher than that of low damped frequency.

This paper reports some results of rough-surface, elastohydrodynamically lubricated (EHD) contacts obtained using a previously developed transient EHD model. The surface roughness is modeled with sinusoidal functions of small wavelength compared to the contact zone. Results are presented showing how the operating conditions affect the film thickness, micro-deformation of the roughness, and the pressure perturbations due to motion and interaction of roughness within the contact. This preliminary work suggests that the entraining velocity and the slide-to-roll ratio are the most sensitive parameters influencing the lubrication process of rough-surface EHD contacts.

This paper presents the performance characteristics of thermo-elastohydrodynamic lubrication (TEHL) in line contact with non-Newtonian liquid–solid lubricant. The time independent Reynolds equation, energy equation, elastic equation and load carrying with solid particle equation were formulated for compressible fluid. Newton-Raphson method and multigrid technique were implemented to obtain film thickness, film pressure, film temperature, friction coefficient and load carrying with solid particle equation in the contact region at various concentrations of solid lubricant and applied loads. The simulation results showed that film thickness and film temperature increase but film pressure decreases when solid particles are added into liquid lubricant. The maximum film temperature and load carrying of solid particle increased but friction coefficient decreased when concentration of solid particle increased. For increasing applied loads, the minimum film thickness decreases but maximum film temperature and friction coefficient increase for all liquid lubricant and liquid-solid lubricants.

The effects of surface forces (SF) and coated layers (CL) on pure squeeze elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) motion of circular contacts are explored under constant load condition by using the finite difference method (FDM) and the Gauss–Seidel iteration method. The transient pressure profiles, surface force, film shapes, and elastic deformation during the pure squeeze process under various operating conditions in the TFEHL regime are discussed. The simulation results reveal that the difference between SFEHL model and EHL model is apparent as the film thickness is thinner than 5 nm. The oscillation phenomena in pressure and film thickness come mainly from the action of solvation forces. At contact region, the greater elastic modulus and smaller coating thicknesses, the greater pressure distribution, and the smaller film thickness. The film thicknesses are found reverse at outside the contact zone. At the exit region, i.e. the minimum film thickness region, it is valid that the greater the elastic modulus and the smaller the coating thicknesses, the greater the solvation pressure distribution. The effects of surface forces become significant as the film thickness becomes thinner.
