Experiment on Mixed Lubrication of Hydrostatic Thrust Bearings for Hydraulic Equipment

TLDR
In this paper, the effects of surface roughness, supply pressure, loads, speed of rotation and size of restrictors on the frictional force, leakage-flow rate and power losses are clarified.
Abstract
Mixed lubrication characteristics of hydrostatic thrust bearings are examined experimentally. The effects of the surface roughness, supply pressure, loads, speed of rotation and size of restrictors on the frictional force, leakage-flow rate and power losses are clarified. Introducing the concept of mean pressure based on load-carrying capacity due to asperities, and the ratios of hydrostatic balance and leakage-flow rate, the experimental data can be normalized. Also good agreement is found between theoretical results based on a mixed lubrication model presented in a previous paper and the experiment.

Contact of Nominally Flat Surfaces

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new theory of elastic contact, which is more closely related to real surfaces than earlier theories, and showed how the contact deformation depends on the topography of the surface, and established the criterion for distinguishing surfaces which touch elastically from those which touch plastically.
