Progress in Tribological Properties of Nano-Composite Hard Coatings under Water Lubrication

open access: yesLubricants, 2017
The tribological properties, under water-lubricated conditions, of three major nano-composite coatings, i.e., diamond-like carbon (DLC or a-C), amorphous carbon nitride (a-CNx) and transition metallic nitride-based (TiN-based, CrN-based), coatings are ...

Monitoring of lubricant film failure in a ball bearing using ultrasound [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
A lubricant-film monitoring system for a conventional deep groove ball bearing (type 6016, shaft diameter 80 mm, ball diameter 12.7 mm) is described. A high-firequency (50 MHz) ultrasonic transducer is mounted on the static outer raceway of the bearing ...

Tailoring the tribological properties of nanostructured carbon films under water lubrication

open access: yesFriction, 2023
Carbon films have been considered suitable to be applied in water lubrication since they exhibit excellent friction-reducing and wear resistance, chemical inertness, etc.

Take-off of small Leidenfrost droplets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We put in evidence the unexpected behaviour of Leidenfrost droplets at the later stage of their evaporation. We predict and observe that, below a critical size $R_l$, the droplets spontaneously take-off due to the breakdown of the lubrication regime.

Friction and wear behaviour of 18 polymers in contact with steel in environments of air and water [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
18 polymers were characterized with respect to their friction and wear behaviour in contact with steel in environments of air and water. These were six unfilled materials, i.e. polyamide 66 (PA 66), polyoxymethylene (POM), polyethyleneterephthalate (PETP)

Wear Behaviors of Stainless Steel and Lubrication Effect on Transitions in Lubrication Regimes in Sliding Contact

open access: yesMetals, 2021
The wear behavior of AISI304 stainless steel was investigated under dry, water-, and oil-lubricated conditions. A block-on-disk wear test was conducted in this work, since the test conditions could be controlled easily.

Study on the Effect of Water Pollution in Lubricant on Gear Thermal Elastohydrodynamic Lubrication Characteristic

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2021
Taking the involute spur gear as the research object and considering the thermal effect and time-varying effect,the oil-water two-phase flow model and the thermal elastohydrodynamic lubrication model of the gear system are established,the influence of ...

On the Design and Lubrication of Water-Lubricated, Rubber, Cutlass Bearings Operating in the Soft EHL Regime

open access: yesLubricants, 2020
All propeller-driven ships employ a drive shaft supported by journal bearings. To avoid water pollution, these bearings are generally lubricated by the surrounding water, removing the need for a rear seal.
