Description
Summary:The results of research related to the influence of partially regular microrelief parameters on the adhesion component of the friction factor under boundary lubrication are presented. It has been shown that micro grooves are effective under boundary friction on precision surfaces with low roughness when lack of film and probability of seizure appear. The deformation component of the friction force of surfaces with micro grooves has been studied. The time of micro running-in was the key factor while assessing the dependence of the deformation component on friction when taking into account the depth of micro grooves and their relative area. The research was conducted using a tribometer according to the friction model entitled “shaft & flexible steel tape”.
