Hertz Vs. EHL Pressure

Analytical Solution of Reynolds Equation: Grubin's Approximation

13.02.2017 tribonet

Derivation of famous analytical solution of EHL equations is presented here. In 1949, Grubin obtained a solution for so called elasto-hydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) line contact problem with simplifications known as Grubin approximation. He was the […]

Osborne Reynolds

Generalized Reynolds Equation: Derivation

14.01.2017 tribonet

Reynolds equation is one of the fundamental equations of lubrication theory and tribology. In the simplest case, it considers incompressible and Newtonian lubricant. This model is sufficient to describe lubricant friction in some cases (relatively […]

Reynolds Equation

Reynolds Equation: Derivation and Solution

12.11.2016 tribonet

Reynolds equation is a partial differential equation that describes the flow of a thin lubricant film between two surfaces. It is derived from the Navier-Stokes equations and is one of the fundamental equations of the […]
