EHL (Elasto Hydrodynamic Lubrication)
/ Applications
Applications of the instrument include:
- Evaluation of film forming and frictional properties of oils and greases.
- Starvation and reflow characteristics of grease lubricated components.
- Fuel economy prediction of candidate crankcase oils.
- Performance prediction of oil in water emulsion rolling mill lubricants.
- Fundamental investigations of the high pressure/high shear behaviour of fluids such as liquid crystals.
- Investigation of boundary additive performance.
