TLDR
In this paper, a cam-operated single cylinder pump was used to test several pump material combinations using two chemically different hydraulic fluids and the main parameters monitored were the degree of mutual electrical insulation attained and the physical drag of the piston on the cylinder due to both viscous shear and asperity interaction.
Abstract
Conventional high-pressure hydraulic piston pumps require a delicate balance between clearance, surface finish, and pump materials if a long, efficient life is to be maintained. A cam-operated single cylinder pump has been used to test several pump material combinations using two chemically different hydraulic fluids. The main parameters monitored were the degree of mutual electrical insulation attained and the physical drag of the piston on the cylinder due to both viscous shear and asperity interaction. It was found that for hardened steel pistons and cylinders an optimum surface finish of approximately 8 μinches CLA gave the best results with both fluids. Results are explained on the basis of micro-asperity hydrodynamic lift. Presented at the 29th Annual Meeting in Cleveland, Ohio, April 28–May 2, 1974

Heat Transfer and Thermal Elastic Deformation Analysis on the Piston/Cylinder Interface of Axial Piston Machines

TL;DR: In this paper, a fully coupled simulation model was developed to analyze the piston/cylinder interface behavior, considering the fluid-structure interaction and thermal problems, and the simulation results for an existing hydrostatic unit were discussed.

Mixed Lubrication Characteristics Between the Piston and Cylinder in Hydraulic Piston Pump-Motor

TL;DR: In this article, a numerical analysis is carried out to obtain the metal contact force between the piston and cylinder, and the contact ratio λ is shown to represent the mixed lubrication condition both for the pump and the motor strokes.

A new approach to the design of sealing and bearing gaps of displacement machines

TL;DR: In this article, a non-isothermal gap flow simulation method for self-adjusting gaps is proposed, and two basic test rigs for the measurement of friction and temperature behavior in the gap between piston and cylinder of an axial piston machine under real operating conditions.

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.

A simple theory of asperity contact in elastohydro-dynamic lubrication

Karlee Johnson, +2 more
- 01 Jan 1972 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the Greenwood and Williamson theory of random rough surfaces in contact has been combined with established elastohydrodynamic theory to provide a theoretical approach to highly loaded lubricated contacts in which the load is shared between hydrodynamic pressure and asperity contact.

Metallic Contact and Friction between Sliding Surfaces

M. J. Furey
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured both the instantaneous and average electrical resistance between the two surfaces and found that the electrical resistance oscillates rapidly between an extremely low value and infinity, suggesting that metallic contact is discontinuous.

The Contact Resistance and Mechanical Properties of Surface Films on Metals

R W Wilson
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the change from oxide-onoxide to metal-on-metal sliding was usually accompanied by changes in the coefficient of friction, the nature of the sliding, and the appearance of the track.
