Abstract
In this paper, a semi-deterministic analytic thermal solution is presented for the rough textured ring/liner conjunction. The energy equation is employed to reveal more detailed information about the tribological performance of the textured surfaces in terms of the thermal effects and the viscosity change. The effects of surface texturing under the cold and warm engine conditions are studied over a wide range of engine speeds. It is shown that the thermal effects play a crucial role in hydrodynamic lubrication, particularly under the cold start condition. Including the thermal effects in the numerical simulation can ensure the accurate predictions.
