Abstract

This paper describes the results of the traction measurements obtained in the experiment discussed in the companion paper entitled “Fluid Rheological Effects in Sliding Elastohydrodynamic Point Contacts With Transient Loading: I.—Film Thickness.” Under the conditions investigated, the traction values appear to be primarily a function of the sliding velocity. Large variations in fluid composition and inlet viscosity had little influence on the tractive force. It was also found that rapid application of the normal load had a negligible effect on the traction.
