Abstract:Lubrication is an important phenomenon in a wide field of industry such as automotive, aerospace, mechanical transmission systems, and many others. The viscosity of fluid is a determining factor in the thermal behaviour of lubricant and solid surfaces in friction. In practice the viscosity varies strongly as a function of local pressure and temperature. In this study we are interested in the effect of temperature on the viscosity and the thermal behavior of the lubricant. We solve the dynamic and energy equati… Show more
