Abstract

The behaviors of two lithium lubricating greases were investigated under EHL circular contact through measurements of traction coefficients on a self-made rig in which the contact was continuously fed with fresh grease. The average values of Erying shear stress and shear modulus of the two lithium greases were obtained from traction experimental data using this rig. Based on the Evans-Johnson model and thermal analysis, we calculated the values of shear stress and traction coefficients of the two greases. The results show that the calculated traction coefficients agree fairly well with the measured data.
