Measurements of Asperity Temperatures of a Read/Write Head Slider Bearing in Hard Magnetic Recording Disks
TL;DR: In this article, an infrared temperature measurement system was used to measure hot spots in a magnetic head rigid disk interface, which employed the spectral distribution as well as intensity of sampled radiation to determine both the temperature and effective area of microscopic sources at elevated temperature.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accurate Measurements of Pressure-Viscosity Behavior in Lubricants
Scott Bair,Farrukh Qureshi +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the reciprocal asymptotic isoviscous pressure may be measured to within 1% for a number of representative lubricating oil base stocks and a simple, well-defined hydrocarbon.
Journal ArticleDOI
A unified shear-thinning treatment of both film thickness and traction in EHD
TL;DR: In this article, a conclusive demonstration has been provided that the nature of shear-thinning, that affects both film thickness and traction in EHL contacts, follows the ordinary power-law rule that has been described by many empirical models of which Carreau is but one example.
Journal ArticleDOI
On the elastohydrodynamic analysis of shear-thinning fluids
TL;DR: In this paper, a generalized formulation that can efficiently treat shear-thinning fluids with provision for compressibility in the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) line contact is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature and Pressure Dependence of the Viscosity of Diisodecyl Phthalate at Temperatures between (0 and 100) °C and at Pressures to 1 GPa
Kenneth R. Harris,Scott Bair +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the viscosity of diisodecyl phthalate (DIDP) was measured at atmospheric pressure between (0 and 100) °C and at high pressures to 1 GPa.
