Research on Modeling Method for Oil-Film Stiffness Calculation of Point Contact Based on EHL

Abstract:

Internal lubrication condition affects dynamic characteristics of rolling ball bearing in operation.According to the calculating problem of the elastic fluid lubricant film stiffness in point contact zone, the oil-film stiffness calculation model was set up based on the elastohydrodynamic lubrication theory (EHL) ,which considers the oil-film distribution and the pressure characteristic of the whole contact region. The stiffness of the oil-film was obtained from this model and compared with the experiment. The results indicate that the data calculated by the model fit the experiment very well, improving the calculation accuracy of the oil-film stiffness.
