  • In highly stressed machine elements such as angular contact ball bearings and toroidal type traction drives, the elastohydrodynamic lubrication of elliptical contacts with both rolling and spinning motion are occur. In this paper, a finite difference method with non-uniform grid systems and the Newton-Raphson method are applied to solve the problems. Pressure distributions, film contours and variations of the minimum and central film thicknesses are compared with various ellipticity parameter, dimensionless speed and load parameter. The results showed that the spinning motion has significant influence especially on the film shapes. Reduction of the minimum film thickness under spinning is remarkable whereas the central film thickness is relatively less. Especially variations of the minimum film thicknesses with rolling velocity, load and ellipticity ratio are a great different from those of pure rolling. Therefore present numerical scheme can be used in the analysis of general elliptical contact EHL problems and further studies are required.

  • 탄성유체윤활 (elastohydrodynamic lubrication : EHL)이론은 구름 베어링, 기어 및 캠기구 등과 같이 집중 하중을 받는 기계 요소에서의 윤활 현상을 설명하는 이론으로서, 윤활부분에서 금속 접촉이 발생하지 않도록 기계요소를 설계하기 위하여 필요한 최소유막두께를 결정하는 데 사용된다. 그리이스는 대표적인 윤활제로서 구름 베어링의 윤활에 있어서 중요한 위치를 점하고 있다. 현재 집중 하중을 받는 기계 요소의 윤활에는 윤활 구조의 간편화, 보수의 용이성, 먼지나 이물의 침입 방지 등에 유리한 그리이스 윤활의 사용이 확대되고 있다. 현재 전동기, 가정용 전기기기, 측정기 등에 쓰이는 구름 베어링의 경우는 거의 전량 그리이스 윤활이 사용되고 있다. 지금까지의 연구는 유동특성상의 복잡성 때문에 무한장 선접촉 등온 EHL 문제에 대한 해석이었고, 아직까지는 그리이스 윤활 TEHL 해석에 관한 연구는 발표된 바 없다. 본 연구에는 Herschel-Bulkley 모델 그리이스 EHL문제를 열탄성유체윤활해석하여 보다 정확한 접촉부의 압력분포와 유막형상을 예측하고자 한다.

  • A theoretical study of elastohydrodynamic lubrication of elliptical contacts with both rolling and spin has been carried out. A finite difference method and the Newton-Raphson method are applied to solve the problem. The velocity vectors resulting from combined spin and rolling/sliding motion lead to asymmetric pressure distributions and film shapes. Film contours and variations of the minimum and central film thicknesses are compared with various spin-roll ratios. At high spin-roll ratios the minimum film thickness is considerably reduced, whereas the central film thickness decreases less dramatically, The present numerical scheme can be used in the analysis of general elliptical contact problems.

  • This paper describes the variation of lubricant's temperature effects on elastohydrodynamic lubrication. The Newton-Raphson technique was used to solve the simultaneous system of Reynolds and elasticity equations. To show effects of lubricant's temperature, average temperature across the oil film was calculated using the energy equation. Pressure distribution, film shape, and temperature distribution were obtained for fully flooded conjunctions, and various dimensionless speed parameters while load and material parameters were held constant. Minimum film thickness were obtained for various material properties while load and velocity were held constant. It is drawn that the thermal effects have a strong influence on a minimum film thickness under high rolling velocity and slip ratio.

  • EHD(elastohydrodynamic) lubrication theories are applied to analyse the contact characteristies between the circular are profiled teeth of the plano-wheel gear and the cylindrical pin type teeth of the inner gear for the planocentric gears unit, For improving lubrication characteristic and contact frictional interference between the teeth, a new design method of optimising continuous meshing position is introduced, and the new tooth profile which is modified as a rounded curvature of the edge of circular arc is also suggested. The results of mathematical computation from conventional and the modified gear unit are compared, respectively.

  • Rapid increase of refrigeration and air-conditioning systems 9r & a systems) in modern industries brings attention to the urgency of research & development as a core technology in the area. And it is required to the compatibility problem of r & a systems to alternative refrigerant for the protection of environment. The, it is requested to study the lubrication characteristics of refrigerant compressor which is the core technology in the r & a systems. The study of lubrication characteristics in the critical sliding component is essential for the design of refrigerant compressor. Therefore, theoretical investigation of the lubrication characteristics of rotary compressor for r & a systems is studied. The newton-Raphson method is used for the EHL analysis between vane and rolling piston in the rotary compressor. The results show that the rotational speed of a shaft and the discharge pressure influence significantly the friction force between vane and rolling piston. This results give important basic data for the further lubrication analysis and design of a rotary compressor.
