A study of the interaction of chemical, thermal and mechanical factors in a lubricated sliding contact : thermally-activated wear theory

The friction and wear behaviour in the sliding four-ball contact system has been investigated, using a non-additive base oil, SAE 10, as the test lubricant. Load, speed, and test duration were each varied and the friction behaviour was measured and then related to the flash temperature calculation i...
