Analysis of the Reynolds Equation for Lubrication in Case of Pressure-Dependent Viscosity [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2013
We study the Reynolds equation, describing the ow of a lubricant, in case of pressure-dependent viscosity. First we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution. Then, we study the asymptotic behavior of the solution in case of periodic roughness via homogenization method. Some interesting nonlocal effects appear due to the nonlinearity.

Derivation of the Reynolds equation for lubrication of a rotating shaft [PDF]

open access: yesArchivum Mathematicum, 2000
In this paper, using the asymptotic expansion, we prove that the Reynolds lubrication equation is an approximation of the full Navier– Stokes equations in thin gap between two coaxial cylinders in relative motion. Boundary layer correctors are computed. The error estimate in terms of domain thickness for the asymptotic expansion is given. The corrector

Thrust Bearing with Rough Surfaces Lubricated by an Ellis Fluid

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Mechanics and Engineering, 2014
In the paper the influence of bearing surfaces roughness on the pressure distribution and load-carrying capacity of a thrust bearing is discussed. The equations of motion of an Ellis pseudo-plastic fluid are used to derive the Reynolds equation.

Reynolds Equation for a Micro-Scale Lubrication of a Gas Between Eccentric Circular Cylinders with an Arbitrary Temperature Difference Based on Slip-Flow Theory

open access: yesLubricants
Micro-scale lubrication flow of a gas between eccentric circular cylinders with an arbitrary temperature difference is studied on the basis of the Navier–Stokes set of equations and the velocity slip and temperature jump boundary conditions.

Mixed Lubrication Analysis of Vane Sliding Surface in Rotary Compressor Mechanisms

open access: yesTribology Online, 2009
In order to investigate the effects of the elastic deformation of the vane-slot on the lubrication characteristics of the vane sliding surface in a rotary compressor, a mixed lubrication analysis considering the elastic deformation has been performed for

A new drag and lift correlation for spherocylinders from fully resolved Immersed Boundary Method

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Many industrial processes deal with non‐spherical particles, e.g., mineral mining and biomass conversion. It is crucial to understand the particles' hydrodynamics to control and optimize these processes. To extend the current state‐of‐the‐art from arrays of spherical particles to spherocylindrical particles, we performed extensive particle ...

On flow of power-law fluids between adjacent surfaces: Why is it possible to derive a Reynolds-type equation for pressure-driven flow, but not for shear-driven flow?

open access: yesApplications in Engineering Science, 2023
Flows of incompressible Navier–Stokes (Newtonian) fluids between adjacent surfaces are encountered in numerous practical applications, such as seal leakage and bearing lubrication.

Solid particles focusing, orienting, and de‐focusing in planar Poiseuille flow

open access: yesAIChE Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Three‐dimensional, time‐dependent lattice‐Boltzmann simulations of neutrally buoyant particles in planar Poiseuille flow have been performed. The particles are spherical or cylindrical (the latter with a length over diameter ratios in the range 1/3 to 2) and have volume fraction ranging from virtually zero (one particle) to 0.15. The channel's

Theoretical analysis of effect of MHD, couple stress and slip velocity on squeeze film lubrication of rough Triangular plates

open access: yesInternational Journal of Thermofluids
In this study, Christensen's stochastic theory is utilized on rough surfaces' hydrodynamic lubricating effect to examine how surface roughness, couple stress fluid, slip velocity, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD), and the triangular surface interact.
