A Full Numerical EHL Solution for Line Contacts Under Pure Rolling Condition With a Non-Newtonian Rheological Model
Keyword(s):
The rheological effects of lubricants and the surface deformation of disks are considered in the lubrication of line contacts. The lubrication equation for fluids obeying power law model has been derived. The lubrication equation and the elastic equation have been solved simultaneously within the contact zone by means of the Newton-tangent method. Pressure distributions and film profiles are obtained. The results of this paper show that with the increase of the power law exponent n, the oil film becomes thicker and the position of the cavitation point moves closer to the center of contact.
