Industrial Lubrication and Tribology: Volume 62 Issue 3

Effect of particle transient motion on lubrication

Han Haiyan, Zhang Youyun, Zhong Zhenyuan

The purpose of this paper is to analyze the influence of particle motion on the lubrication characteristics. The dynamics of the particle in the lubricant is also studied.

Oil‐ and water‐based continuous control valve

Franc Majdic, Jozef Pezdirnik

Environmental protection regulations are becoming increasingly strict. Using water instead of a hydraulic mineral or biodegradable oil in power‐control hydraulic systems is a very…

Minimization of power loss in tilting‐pad journal bearings

Hamit Saruhan

The purpose of this paper is to implement an optimization approach for the tilting‐pad journal bearing using the genetic algorithm (GA), and compare the results with the method of…

Influence of the number of feeding holes on the performances of aerostatic bearings

Cheng‐Hsien Chen, Yuan Kang, Ding‐Wen Yang, Ren‐Ming Hwang, Shyh‐Shyong Shyr

The purpose of this paper is to study the influence of number of feeding holes on the performance of aerostatic bearings with spindle rotation. In traditional design of aerostatic…

Synthesis and tribological behavior of ionic liquid substituted fluoroalkoxycyclophosphazene derivatives in steel‐steel contacts

Jinlong Li, Dapeng Feng, Yongmin Liang, Yanqiu Xia, Weimin Liu

The purpose of this paper is to synthesize a series of cyclophosphazene derivatives with better tribological properties.

A new technology on enhancing heat transfer during grinding of titanium alloy

Qinglong An, Yucan Fu, Jiuhua Xu

Grinding may generate high temperature along the arc of grinding zone, especially during the grinding process of difficult‐to‐machine materials. It can cause thermal damage to the…

Effects of temperature on pure squeeze EHL motion using grayscale interferometric method

Li‐Ming Chu, Jin‐Yuan Lai, Chi‐Hui Chien, Jaw‐Ren Lin

The purpose of this paper is to present a novel method to investigate the microscopic mechanism of the oil film under the pure squeeze elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) motion…
