LUBRICATION
Purpose of Lubrication
• The primary purpose of lubrication is to reduce wear and heat between contacting surfaces in relative motion.
• Because heat and wear are associated with friction, both effects can be minimized by reducing the coefficient of friction between the contacting surfaces.
• Lubrication is also used to reduce oxidation and prevent rust; to provide insulation in transformer applications; to transmit mechanical power in hydraulic fluid power applications; and to seal against dust, dirt, and water.
Lubricants
• Reduced wear and heat are achieved by inserting a lower-viscosity
(shear strength) material between wearing surfaces that have a
relatively high coefficient of friction. Any material used to reduce
friction in this way is a lubricant. Lubricants are available in liquid,
solid, and gaseous forms.
• Industrial machinery ordinarily uses oil or grease.
• Solid lubricants such as molybdenum disulfide or graphite are used
when the loading at contact points is heavy. In some applications
the wearing surfaces of a material are plated with a different metal to
reduce friction.
Viscosity
• Viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to motion. It
represents the fluid internal friction.
• Newton’s viscous law:
where:
is the shear stress;
is a proportionality constant and defines the dynamic or absolute viscosity as the
tangential force per unit area required to move one horizontal plane with respect to
the other at unit velocity when maintained a unit distance apart by the fluid;
is the shear rate or velocity gradient.

Viscosity
• Kinematic viscosity is the ratio between absolute viscosity and mass
density.
- It is measured by viscosimeters (viscometers) in which the
fluid drives the oil through a calibrated capillary.
where:
is the kinematic viscosity;
is the absolute viscosity;
ρ is the mass density.
Example of a viscosimeter:
Saybolt Universal Viscosimeter
Units of Dynamic Viscosity
• Dynamic viscosity:
• SI system:
- 1 Pa.s = 1 N.s/m2 = 1 kg/m.s
• Metric CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system:
- 1 Poise (P) = 1 dyne.s/cm2 = 1 g/cm.s = 0.1 Pa.s
• It's usual to divide the Poise by 100 into the smaller unit:
- 1 centiPoise (cP) = 0.01 P
• Water at 20.2oC has an absolute viscosity of 1 cP.
• British IPS (inch-pound-second) system:
- 1 reyn = 1 lbf.s/in2 = 6890 Pa.s
Units of Kinematic Viscosity
• Kinematic viscosity:
• SI system:
- 1 m2/s
• Metric CGS (centimeter-gram-second) system:
- 1 Stoke (St) = 1 cm2/s = 10-4 m2/s
• It's usual to divide the Stoke by 100 into the smaller unit:
- 1 centistoke (cSt) = 0.01 St = 1 mm2/s = 10-6 m2/s
• Water at 20.2oC has a kinematic viscosity of 1 cSt.
• British IPS (inch-pound-second) system:
- 1 in2/s = 645.2 cSt = 6.452E-04 m2/s
• Conversion from Saybolt Universal seconds (SUS):
- 1 cSt = 0.22 (SUS) – 180/(SUS)
Viscosity Classifications
• ISO (from ASTM D2422): Based only on viscosity ranges at 40ºC.
• Each viscosity grade is designated by the nearest whole number to its midpoint
kinematic viscosity in mm2/s (cST) at 40ºC, and a range of +/- 10 percent of this value
is permitted.
Viscosity Classifications
• SAE: Based primarily on viscosity at 100ºC, with an additional low-
temperature requirement for winter grades (ASTM D5293-Cranking
and ASTM D455-Pumping).
SAE Crankcase oil grades

Viscosity-Temperature Charts
• Oil viscosity decreases rapidly with increasing temperature.
Viscosity-Temperature Relations
• Some of the most commonly used viscosity-temperature equations:
• Walther equation:
where:
is the kinematic viscosity in cSt;
T is the absolute temperature in ºK;
A and B are constants for any given oil.
• This relation forms the basis of the ASTM viscosity-temperature
chart and holds well for most mineral and synthetic oils, at high
pressures, and at a variety of given shear rates for polymer solutions
in multigrade automotive oils.

over an extended temperature range.

Viscosity Index
• The Viscosity Index (VI) is an empirical indicator of the relative
decrease in viscosity with increasing temperature.
Viscosity Index
• Originally a VI of 100 represented the least temperature-sensitive
Pennsylvania petroleum oil, and a VI of 0 represented the most
temperature-sensitive Gulf Coast oil.
• For an oil with VI ≤ 100:
where, for the same 100ºC kinematic viscosity of the oil in question:
H is the 40ºC viscosity of the 100 VI oil;
L is the 40ºC viscosity of the 0 VI oil;
U is the 40ºC viscosity of the unknown VI oil.

y is the viscosity in cSt at 100ºC for the fluid of interest.
• This method is now the ASTM procedure when VI exceeds 100,
because the former gave confusing results and even some double
values in this VI range.

Viscosity-Temperature Coefficient
• Viscosity-Temperature Coefficient (VTC) is useful for some synthetic
oils and multigrade mineral oils not well defined by the usual VI
system.
• VTC gives a measure of the fractional change in kinematic viscosity
in going from 40ºC to 100ºC.
• VTC = 0 for an oil viscosity unaffected by temperature;
• VTC = 1 for an 100ºC oil viscosity = 0.

where:
μ0 is the absolute viscosity in cP at atmospheric (nearly zero) pressure;
μ is the viscosity at pressure P at the same temperature;
α is the pressure-viscosity coefficient.
• This relation applies for many oils at pressures up to about 70 Mpa
such as those encountered in conventional fluid-film bearings and in
hydraulic systems.

temperature;
C is a constant with a value that depends on the pressure units used (196.1 MPa or
28440 psi), as necessary to make P/C dimensionless.

pressures up to quite high values.

Petroff’s Equation
• Bearing friction was first analyzed by Petroff in 1883.
• The shaft is vertical and considered concentric. It is assumed that
the bearing load is small and that oil completely fills the clearance
space without side leakage.
Petroff’s Equation
• Shearing stress in the lubricant:
with: N in rev/s – Shaft velocity;
U = 2πrN – Surface velocity.
• Torque required to shear the oil film:
• Frictional torque:
with: P = W/2rl – Bearing pressure.
• Solving for the coefficient of friction, we find the:

Petroff’s Law Viscous Friction
Model • In the thick film lubrication regime, Petroff’s law gives a good
approximation to friction losses.
Stable Lubrication
• Stribeck-Gumbel or McKee-Petroff curves:
• In stable thick film lubrication variations are self-correcting. For example an increase
in lubricant temperature will decrease both viscosity, μN/P and coefficient of friction
resulting in less heat generated and then in a drop of lubricant temperature.
• In unstable thin film lubrication variations have compounded results.
Beauchamp Tower's Experiments
• Beauchamp Tower’s experiments (1883-1885) to determine the
friction of the journal of a railway-car wheel with a lubricator hole, in
the partial bearing, drilled in the course of the experiments:
Beauchamp Tower's Experiments
• The experiments showed some surprising results. It became clear
that the lubricant between the journal and bearing was under
pressure. At sufficient rotational speed the pressure distribution
within the oil film was such that the film actually generated the load-
carrying forces.
Reynolds Equation - Assumptions -
• Beauchamp Tower’s results were explained by Osbourne Reynolds using a
differential equation first published in 1886.
• Reynolds equation can be derived from the Navier-Stokes and continuity
equations or directly from laws of viscous flow and principle of mass
conservation, with the following required simplifying assumptions: • (1) The lubricant fluid is Newtonian (shear stress is proportional to the shear rate);
• (2) Flow of fluid is laminar (no vortex flow or turbulence);
• (3) The weight of the fluid is negligible.
• (4) The forces due to the inertia of the lubricant are negligible.
• (5) The lubricant fluid is assumed to be incompressible;
• (6) The pressure remains constant across the thickness of the relatively thin lubricant fluid;
• (7) The viscosity of the fluid is assumed to be constant throughout the film;
• (8) There is no slip between the lubricant and the bounding surfaces;
• (9) There is no end leakage (infinite length bearing);
• (10) The curvature of the bearing can be ignored when compared with the very small
thickness of the fluid film (translational instead of rotational velocities).
Reynolds Equation - Control Volume -
• The Reynolds equation can be derived directly by considering a
control volume fixed in space and extended across the lubricant film.
Reynolds Equation - Velocity Distribution-
• Summing the forces in the x direction gives

and u = Uy/h
Reynolds Equation - Mass Conservation -
• The volumetric flow rate in the x direction per unit of width in the z
direction is
• Substituting the value of u and integrating gives
• Since the lubricant is assumed as incompressible, the flow must be
the same for any cross section
