THE EFFECT OF THE SHAPE OF OIL POCKETS ON THE FRICTION FORCE
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2018, Vol 280, Issue 4
Abstract
Tests were carried out using a pin-on-disc tester under starved lubrication conditions. To achieve a conformal contact, a special construction was used with an adjustable counter sample. Textured surfaces with two dimple patterns (spiral an radial) and four shapes (circle, oval, triangle, and chevron) were tested. The contact area was lubricated with L-AN-46 oil. Before the tests, surface topographies of the discs were measured by a white light interferometer Talysurf CCI Lite. Tests showed that, in starved lubrication conditions, oil pocket shape and pattern affected the friction force.<br/><br/>

THE INFLUENCE OF ZINC DIALKYLDITHIOPHOSPHATE AND PHENOL ANTIOXIDANT ON THE EFFICIENCY OF UNSATURATED ANTIWEAR ADDITIVES
The aim of the work was to determine the influence of antioxidants, i.e. 2,6-ditertbuthylphenole (DBF) and zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP) on the antiwear (AW) activity of the model lubricant, containing 1% w/w 3-ally...
EFFECT OF STRAIGHT-LINE MECHANISM DESIGN ON THE LOAD DISTRIBUTION IN A CYCLOIDAL GEAR
In the cycloidal gear, the torque is transmitted to the planet gears via an eccentric shaft with central bearings mounted on it. A straight-line mechanism is used to output the torque from the planet gears to the output...
REASON FOR PISTON SEIZURE DURING RELIABILITY TESTING OF AN IC ENGINE
This paper describes the reason of seizure of the pistons of a CE engine with spark ignition, 1.6 liter capacity, during reliability test. We analysed the microstructure, operation life, hardness and size and shape of th...
