Development of the Design Model of a Hydrodynamic Lubricating Material Formed during Melting of the Axial Bearing, in the Presence of Forced Lubrication

Аннотация

This work presents a method of formation of an accurate self-similar solution of the problem of hydrodynamic calculation of a wedge-shaped support (slide block, guide) operating in the presence of a lubricating material and melt of the guide. Based on the equation of motion of an viscous incompressible liquid for a “thin layer” and the expression for the energy dissipation rate, an analytical dependence is obtained for the profile of the melted surface of the guide. In addition, the main performance characteristics of the friction couple considered are defined. The influence of the parameter specified by the melt of the guide on the bearing capacity and friction force is estimated.
