The Control of the Lubricant Film by the Resistive Method for Scuffing

Journal Title: Tribology in Industry - Year 2015, Vol 37, Issue 3

Abstract

The existence of a continuous film of lubricant increases the electrical resistance of the contact that can provide information on the quality of contact’s lubrication. This paper presents some experimental results obtained in the control of the lubricant film presence through the resistive method, in lubricated sliding contact between a spherical roller and a cylindrical disc, with the interpretation which gives indications about the time of scuffing.
