Abstract
Description
A lubrication model using the Elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory and deformation mechanics is developed in a multi-material contact zone, and a procedure for coupling fluid and deformation mechanics is introduced. By conducting Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations, the static contact pressure is obtained, which subsequently is used within the herein developed model consisting of a modified Reynolds equation and an asperity contact model, to calculate the fluid film pressure and the deformation of the fluid channel is determined using an elastic deformation model applied to a multi-component multi-mechanical property channel. These computational results are used for estimations of the seal leakage and friction under various conditions.
