Industrial Lubrication and Tribology: Volume 57 Issue 3

Lubrication of porous parallel plate slider bearing with slip velocity, material parameter and magnetic fluid

Our purpose was to theoretically analyse the effects of slip velocity and a magnetic fluid lubricant characterised by a material parameter on a parallel plate porous slider…

New designs of magnetic fluid exclusion seals for rolling bearings

To present some new designs of magnetic fluid exclusion seals for rolling bearings and possibility to use them in modern industrial sealing applications.

A note on the flow coefficients of capillary tube and small orifice restrictors exposed to very low Reynolds number flow

The main objective of this study was to obtain the flow restricting capacity by determining their flow coefficients and to investigate the unsteady flow with low Reynolds number…

The effects of bearing distortion on the performance of hydrodynamic thrust bearings

In this work, the performance characteristics of thrust bearings are studied by taking into account bearing distortions.

Dicarboxylic acid esters as components of modern synthetic oils

The paper presents the results of research carried out on esters of carbonic, adipic, and sebacic acids with respect to their use as components of fully synthetic lubricating oil…
