Abstract

Based on the concept of the turbulent flow of a viscoelastic lubricant, a two-component lubrication system consisting of mineral oil and a viscoelastic lubricant that represents a melt of fusible metals is considered. The results of studies on the tribological characteristics such as friction forces and the bearing capacity of friction assemblies are presented taking into account the viscosity and shear modulus of the molten layer depending on the temperature. Ways to improve the properties of lubricants through the introduction of additives and fillers therein are considered.
