Description
Summary:博士 === 國立成功大學 === 機械工程學系 === 86 === A gear/cam adapter was employed to study various aspects of line-contact lubrication, using oil with extreme-pressure at two different concentrations. The effect of run-in on the tribological performance of rollers with two different surface roughnesses was investigated in terms of friction coefficient, wear loss, oil temperature, specimen roughness and electrical resistanc?蒞he relation between roller wear loss and the time rate of electrical resistance change was established. The run-in effect on roller wear loss in smooth rollers is opposed to that in rough rollers. The asperity height of the smooth rollers was increased by wear testing irrespective of run-in; however, run- in enhanced the increase in surface roughness. The extreme- pressure additive concentration instead of run-in was the decisive factor in electrical resistance. Friction coefficient during testing showed a strong positive relation with composite surface roughness. The pitting behavior of rollers with two different surface roghnesses was investigated in terms of crack length, chemical reaction thin film, pitting area, pitting depth, and specimen''s life. Rollers with a rough contact surface induced a longer life by means of a shallower stress distribution in the subsurface. The presence of extreme-pressure additive in the base oil reduced Weibull slope and promoted the L50 life. The results were confirmed due to the plastic flowing of Beilby layer, which restrained the propagation of cracks.
