Aqueous drops on silicone oil infused lubricating surfaces are cloaked with a thin layer of oil to minimize their surface energy. These oil cloaked aqueous drops exhibit pseudo-stable coalescence or spontaneous coalescence depending upon the lubricating oil thickness which controls the interaction point of the drops. For thick oil films, drops interact with each other through the surrounding oi...

Using finite element method and multi-body dynamics method, this study established an engine digitalized virtual prototype embraced tribological characteristics in virtual prototype and MATLAB platform, and introduced Elastohydrodynamics theory into the system, wrote program with difference equation method, and solved the Reynolds Equation through shafting-bearing self-feedback control system, ...

In the present study we analyzed the existence of asymmetry in the secretion of steroid hormones in pre-pubertal female rats treated with unilateral ovariectomy (ULO) or unilateral perforation of the abdominal wall (sham-surgery). Treated rats were sacrificed at different times after surgery. Since sham-surgery had an apparent effect on the age of first vaginal estrous (FVE) and serum levels ho...

The lubricating oils in each mechanical device are affected by shear forces. Polymers in lubricating oils engine, in particular, undergo many changes because of the influence of the applied forces. Awareness of these changes can help us to design optimal formulations. In this work, shear stability of four commercial was studied. Calculation of various parameters about viscosity in the enhancing...

The importance of providing adequate cleansing facilities for industrial workers, and in particular for those whose skin is constantly or frequently exposed to contamination with potentially harmful lubricating oils, is now well recognized. The removal of lubricating oils from the skin, although superficially an apparently simple matter, is, in fact, usually difficult to accomplish without usin...

Experimental analysis on the oil supply characteristics of scroll compressor for package air conditioner has been presented based on the experimental apparatus operating at variable speed Scroll compressor has four major lubricating parts : the lower journal bearing, the main journal bearing, the orbiting scroll journal bearing and the thrust bearing between the orbiting scroll and the main fra...
