Abstract
The coupling effect of the acceleration/deceleration operation during starting and braking, the continuous winding in, winding out and the transition between the layers of the rope, and the low-frequency vibration of the winch in the hoisting system causes bending tribo- fatigue behaviors between the winch drum wire ropes and the rope groove material in the offshore drilling rigs. A self-made test rig was developed for the bending tribo- fatigue tests between the wire rope and rope groove. The effects of wrap angles, fatigue loads, and fatigue cycles on the tribological properties (the friction coefficient, wear mechanism, volume loss, wear rate, etc.) were studied. The results indicate that an increase in fatigue load and fatigue cycles results in more severe coupling damage to wire ropes subjected to bending tribo-fatigue, while an increase in wrap angle slightly mitigates the severity of this coupling damage. The findings provide theoretical guidance for enhancing the operational reliability of drum wire ropes.
期刊介绍:
Tribology is the science of rubbing surfaces and contributes to every facet of our everyday life, from live cell friction to engine lubrication and seismology. As such tribology is truly multidisciplinary and this extraordinary breadth of scientific interest is reflected in the scope of Tribology International.
Tribology International seeks to publish original research papers of the highest scientific quality to provide an archival resource for scientists from all backgrounds. Written contributions are invited reporting experimental and modelling studies both in established areas of tribology and emerging fields. Scientific topics include the physics or chemistry of tribo-surfaces, bio-tribology, surface engineering and materials, contact mechanics, nano-tribology, lubricants and hydrodynamic lubrication.
