  1. 16. Computational fluid dynamics in theoretical simulations of elastohydrodynamic lubrication

    Author : Torbjörn Almqvist; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : The work presented in this thesis concerns computer simulations of lubrication processes, and the main part deals with simulations in the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) regime. The thesis summarises the work performed in the five papers referred to as Paper A, B, C, D and E. READ MORE

  2. 17. On the hydrodynamic lubrication in tilting pad thrust bearings

    Author : Sergei B. Glavatskikh; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : The primarily objective of this work was to investigate the performance of environmentally adapted synthetic oils in the hydrodynamic lubrication regime. A special test facility has been designed and manufactured for this purpose. The facility contains two equalising tilting pad thrust bearings typical of design in general use. READ MORE

  3. 18. Elasto-hydrodynamic film formation in heavily loaded rolling-sliding contacts : Influence of surface topography on the transition between lubrication regimes

    Author : Jonny Hansen; Roland Larsson; Marcus Björling; Guillermo Morales-Espejel; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : To meet the stringent demands set on future gear transmissions, and to allow for manufacturers to make them more efficient and durable, it is essential to understand what mechanisms that govern their performance. This work was launched with the chief targets of establishing key competence in gear lubrication. READ MORE

  4. 19. Prediction of traction in EHL contacts operating in the linear isothermal region

    Author : Yuko Higashitani; Andreas Almqvist; Marcus Björling; Sanemasa Kawabata; Alessandro Ruggiero; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Elastohydrodynamic lubrication EHL ; Friction; Traction; Modelling; Simulation; FEM; Rolling sliding; Elliptical; Machine Elements; Maskinelement;

    Abstract : The vehicle industry plays an important role in moving people and goods all over the world. Unfortunately, the vehicular transportation has a huge (negative) impact on the climate. Improved fuel-efficient vehicle technologies are therefore required to reduce emissions and address environmental concerns. READ MORE

  5. 20. Investigations for enhanced tribological performance of a hydraulic motor

    Author : Daniel Nilsson; Friedrich Franek; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Abstract : A radial piston hydraulic motor has several components that encounter sliding orrolling motion under lubricated conditions. When a hydrostatic, hydrodynamic orelastohydrodynamic oil film separates the interacting surfaces, the wear and frictionare low provided of course the hydraulic fluid is free from the presence ofcontaminants.
