INFRARED STUDIES OF TRIBOLOGICAL PHENOMENA IN SLIDING BEARINGS
Journal Title: Tribologia - Year 2012, Vol 244, Issue 4
Abstract
The paper presents the possibilities of the application of thermovision methods in studies of sliding bearings operating in friction conditions. Thermal phenomena can be observed in images produced by thermovision during bearing operation. The presented characteristics show the geometrical distribution of temperature in the bearing and the process of its heating during operation. The analysis of observed phenomena made it possible to work out a thermal model that allowed the author to determine the friction coefficient in the sliding bearing.

THE ANALYSIS OF TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF NIOBIUM WELDED IN THE ABRASIVE SOIL MASS
The paper presents the research of the wear intensity of welded layers in diverse soil conditions. The samples made of 38GSA steel with the surface layers welded using different welding technologies were the subject of t...
THE STRUCTURE AND COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION OF WELDED NICKEL ALLOYS INCONEL 625 AND INCONEL 718
In this study, the coefficients of friction for three series of welded nickel alloy joints, subjected to different heat treatments (lack of heat treatment, solution heat treatment, precipitation hardening), were determin...
THE INFLUENCE OF THE CHEMICAL STRUCTURE OF LIQUID-CRYSTALLINE COMPOUNDS ADDED TO PARAFFIN OIL ON TRIBOLOGICAL PROPERTIES OF LUBRICANT MIXTURES
Liquid-crystalline compounds added to typical lubricants, such as mineral oils, improve their tribological properties [L. 13]. The aim of this work was to study the influence of the chemical structure of liquid-crystall...
