Lubrication theory (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Lorsqu'un liquide est fortement confiné entre deux surfaces, c'est-à-dire que l'épaisseur de liquide est très faible devant les dimensions transversales des parois confinantes, il est possible de simplifier fortement l'équation de Navier-Stokes qui gouverne son écoulement : c'est l'approximation de lubrification, qui permet en particulier de décrire l'écoulement du liquide dans les contacts lubrifiés.

dbo:abstract In fluid dynamics, lubrication theory describes the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) in a geometry in which one dimension is significantly smaller than the others. An example is the flow above air hockey tables, where the thickness of the air layer beneath the puck is much smaller than the dimensions of the puck itself. Internal flows are those where the fluid is fully bounded. Internal flow lubrication theory has many industrial applications because of its role in the design of fluid bearings. Here a key goal of lubrication theory is to determine the pressure distribution in the fluid volume, and hence the forces on the bearing components. The working fluid in this case is often termed a lubricant. Free film lubrication theory is concerned with the case in which one of the surfaces containing the fluid is a free surface. In that case the position of the free surface is itself unknown, and one goal of lubrication theory is then to determine this. Examples include the flow of a viscous fluid over an inclined plane or over topography. Surface tension may be significant, or even dominant. Issues of wetting and dewetting then arise. For very thin films (thickness less than one micrometre), additional intermolecular forces, such as Van der Waals forces or disjoining forces, may become significant.
