Abstract

The theoretical investigations made in this paper are to study the combined effects of unidirectional surface roughness and magnetic effect on the performance characteristics of a porous squeeze film lubrication between two rectangular plates. The stochastic Reynolds equation accounting for the magnetic effect and randomized surface roughness structure is mathematically derived. The expressions for dimensionless pressure, load carrying capacity and squeeze film time are obtained. Results are computed numerically and it is observed that a roughness effect enhances pressure, load carrying capacity and squeeze film time.
