Abstract
Elastohydrodynamic line contact simulations have been carried out in the present study. A practical situation of transient EHL film collapse has been analyzed. The aim is to observe the effect of variation of maximum Hertzian pressure (PH) on transient behavior of EHL film thickness (H).The analysis is based upon classical Reynolds equation considering time variation. The simulation results pertaining to EHL film thickness calculated using linear pressure-viscosity relationship have been compared for different values of load. It has been observed that film thickness reduces with increase in load. Similar results are obtained using exponential pressure-viscosity relationship and compared with those for linear pressure-viscosity. The EHL equations are solved by discretizing Reynolds equation and load equilibrium equation along with other equations using Newton-Raphson technique with the help of a computer code.
