Aluminium-based brake disc temperature paired with circular friction blocks of different diameters (45, 60, and 65 mm) is obtained by the TM-I-type reduced-scale inertial braking dynamometer at braking speeds 60–160 km/h and braking force 1.66 kN. On the basis, the thermo-mechanical coupling model of friction pair is established to simulate the evolution of brake disc temperature by ADINA finite-element software, and the thermal energy gradient factor is proposed. Results indicate that the numerical brake disc temperature agrees with the measured, validating the numerical model. The friction area caused the difference of braking pressure, which affects the brake disc temperature. The decrease in the friction area accelerates the disc temperature rise and increases the area ratio of high-temperature zone and maximum temperature difference. The influence degree of friction area on the brake disc temperature varies with friction zone. The thermal energy gradient factor can effectively predict the distribution of temperature gradient on the disc surface.","PeriodicalId":20570,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140473894","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Mechanical analysis of the bearing is carried out, and the mechanical model of the elastic deformation of the flat foil and the bump foils is constructed. Combined with non-isothermal Reynolds equation and energy equation, a fluid–solid coupling numerical calculation model is constructed. Through the actual bearing test research, the reliability of the established theoretical model is verified. On this basis, combined with the specific example, the influences of the structural parameters of the new-type foil bearing on its mechanical properties and lubrication performance are studied, and the specific influence curves are obtained. It is also found that the new-type bearing proposed in this paper has good adaptability to the shaft deflection. When the shaft is deflected, the bump foil at the axial end increases the minimum film height by generating large elastic deformation, which can help to avoid wear caused by direct contact between the shaft and the foil.","PeriodicalId":20570,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140484552","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Considering the complexity of the ferrofluid-based tribosystem, the experiments were carried out based on a previously proposed level-based simplified tribosystem. It is observed that the impact of ferrofluid as an interaction parameter and magnetic field as an environmental parameter has significantly affected tribological properties, that is, ∼60% less friction and ∼74% less wear loss compared to an equivalent oil-based tribosystem. Further, it is noticed that ferritic shaft-based tribosystem lubricated with ferrofluid has better tribological characteristics compared to austenitic shaft-based tribosystem. Also, it had been that a specific testing hierarchy is followed between the performance parameters.

These substrates were chosen due to their extensive industrial applications. The goal of the present study is to improve the wear resistance of these substrates through the coatings. We performed nano-indentation and ball-on-disc tribometer experiments to study mechanical and tribological behavior of substrates and coatings. We find that when zinc-phosphate coating is applied to AISI 1044 steel, a new phase Zn2Fe(PO4)2·4H2O (phosphophyllite) is formed on the surface that increases the surface hardness. We further find that coefficient of friction decreases approximately by 8% due to hard-chrome coating on AISI 430 steel and by 48% due to zinc-phosphate coating on AISI 1044 steel under load and speed conditions applied in the present study. We attribute our findings to formation of: (1) an adhering layer of chromium in the case of chrome–steel contact, leading to chrome–chrome contact at the interface of test-specimen and counter-surface, and (2) a glossy layer at interface in the case of phosphate-steel contact, owing to the compaction and crushing of phosphate wear debris. Our wear studies show maximum reductions in specific wear rate to be around 80% and 89% for chrome and zinc-phosphate coatings, respectively. We note that adhesion and abrasion are the primary modes of wear for chrome and zinc-phosphate conversion coatings, respectively at the initial stage. However, adhesive wear switches to delamination wear at a later stage for hard-chrome coating.","PeriodicalId":20570,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140492117","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

When the inclination angle is 0.00025°, the maximum oil film pressure is about 14 times than that without inclination, and the minimum oil film thickness when the plunger is deflected is significantly smaller than that without inclination. As the pressure difference gradually increases, the leakage ratio of a single plunger/cylinder pair mostly shows an approximate linear increase trend. When the contact length is 17 mm, the leakage amount is the largest and the slope of the varied curve is the steepest, when the unilateral clearance increases above 3 µm, the leakage ratio increases significantly.

Such estimates are likely to have large errors due to shear dependence of viscosity. The classical film thickness formulas employed have not been validated except for some Newtonian reference liquids at room temperature because the real pressure-viscosity response measured in viscometers has been ignored. A blend of polyalpha olefin base oils with mild shear-thinning has been employed in a line contact calculation to assess the effects of shear-dependent viscosity on the power-law exponents of the classical film thickness formula. The exponents on the pressure-viscosity coefficient and on the elastic modulus of the solids are not sensitive to the non-Newtonian effect. The exponents on ambient pressure viscosity and velocity are slightly reduced by shear-thinning. The exponents on pressure and scale are substantially increased by the shear dependence. The usual practice of measuring film thickness in an elastohydrodynamic rig to obtain an effective “[Formula: see text]-value” to use in a classical Newtonian film thickness formula will overstated the film thickness of a liquid which is shear dependent in the elastohydrodynamic lubrication inlet.","PeriodicalId":20570,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139447058","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because the nanoparticle's diameter plays a key role in the fluid with nanoparticle additives, research on its effect is important for hydrodynamic journal bearing. In this work, the nanoparticle diameter impacts on the characteristics of the hydrodynamic journal bearings are investigated with under thermal effects. At first, four hydrodynamic journal bearings have different parameters such as radial clearance and bearing length–diameter ratio are considered and designed. Then, the lubricant flow through the radial clearance is modeled with Dowson's equation. Besides, the temperature field in the journal and the lubricant are governed by the heat conduction and energy equations, respectively. The physical and thermal properties of the nanolubricant are expressed by considering nanoparticle diameter and the volume ratio. Then, an algorithm is developed to solve the mathematical models based on the finite difference method. Finally, a serial simulation is conducted under different nanoparticle diameters and operational conditions. When the nanoparticle diameter becomes small, the temperature and pressure values of the nanolubricant, load capacity, and stiffness increase.","PeriodicalId":20570,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J: Journal of Engineering Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139445584","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
