Abstract

Hydrodynamic lubrication of heavily loaded rigid system of non-symmetric roller bearings is studied to investigate the thermal effects in the operating behavior of line contact under isothermal and adiabatic boundaries. The incompressible power law lubricant is here considered and its consistency is taken to change with hydrodynamic pressure and the corresponding mean lubricant temperature. The flow controlling equations such as momentum, continuity and thermal energy are solved numerically using R-K Fehlberg method. The results obtained particularly, pressure, mean temperature, load and traction profiles are in good agreement with the previous findings.
