Analyzed on the Lubrication Characteristics Orthogonal Test of the Low Speed and Heavy Load Equipment

Abstract:

The traction characteristics of lubricant is one of the important parameters of the dynamic performance of bearings design .This paper chose three significant factors affecting the traction coefficient：temperature、load and rotate speed. Test results showed that the traction coefficient under the high load is significantly higher than under low load from room temperature to 135 °C. After more than 135 °C, the traction coefficient under the low load is higher than under the high load. It illustrated that the grease was sensitive to temperature but it reflected high temperature stable performance.The optimum conditions were obtained by Design-Expert software optimization : temperature for 235°C、load for 2800.00N、rotate speed for 183.17r/min and in this time the traction coefficient is at 0.547 in this test. It shown that the grease fitted the low speed and heavy load equipment.
