This paper aims at analyzing the effect of velocity slip on the behavior of a magnetic fluid based infinitely short hydrodynamic slider bearing. Solving the Reynolds’ equation, the expression for pressure distribution is obtained. In turn, this leads to the calculation of the load carrying capacity. Further, the friction is also computed. It is observed that the magnetization paves the way for an overall improved performance of the bearing system. However the magnetic fluid lubricant fails to alter the friction. It is established that the slip parameter needs to be kept at minimum to achieve better performance of the bearing system, although the effect of the slip parameter on the load carrying capacity is in most situations, negligible. It is found that for large values of the aspect ratio, the effect of slip is increasingly significant. Of course, the aspect ratio plays a crucial role in this improved performance. Lastly, it is established that the bearing can support a load even in the absence of flow, which does not happen in the case of a conventional lubricant.

Efforts have been made to present a comparison of all the three magnetic fluid flow models (Neuringer-Rosensweig model, Shliomis model, and Jenkins model) so far as the performance of a magnetic fluid based parallel plate rough slider bearing is concerned. The stochastic model of Christensen and Tonder is adopted for the evaluation of effect of transverse surface roughness. The stochastically averaged Reynolds-type equation is solved with suitable boundary conditions to obtain the pressure distribution resulting in the calculation of load carrying capacity. The graphical results establish that for a bearing’s long life period the Shliomis model may be employed for higher loads. However, for lower to moderate loads, the Neuringer-Rosensweig model may be deployed.

An attempt has been made to analyze the performance of a magnetic fluid-based-squeeze film between longitudinally rough elliptical plates. A magnetic fluid is used as a lubricant while axially symmetric flow of the magnetic fluid between the elliptical plates is taken into consideration under an oblique magnetic field. Bearing surfaces are assumed to be longitudinally rough. The roughness of the bearing surface is characterized by stochastic random variable with nonzero mean, variance, and skewness. The associated averaged Reynolds’ equation is solved with appropriate boundary conditions in dimensionless form to obtain the pressure distribution leading to the calculation of the load-carrying capacity. The results are presented graphically. It is clearly seen that the magnetic fluid lubricant improves the performance of the bearing system. It is interesting to note that the increased load carrying capacity due to magnetic fluid lubricant gets considerably increased due to the combined effect of standard deviation and negatively skewed roughness. This performance is further enhanced especially when negative variance is involved. This paper makes it clear that the aspect ratio plays a prominent role in improving the performance of the bearing system. Besides, the bearing can support a load even when there is no flow.

Performance analysis of porous inclined slider bearing based on magnetite nanosuspension has been carried out to investigate the effects of slip parameter arising out of modeling. The expression for load carrying capacity has been derived analytically as a function of slip, magnetic, permeability and material parameters. Furthermore, the effect of an important term pertaining to the co-rotational derivative of magnetization is usually ignored by the researchers working on similar problems. However, as this term is expected to influence the load carrying capacity significantly, this paper investigates its effect on the bearing performance parameters under the present conditions. Besides, the effect of varying the inlet-outlet ratio has also been studied. It has been found that with an increase in the inlet-outlet ratio up to an optimum value, the load carrying capacity increases followed by a decreasing trend.

The purpose of this paper is to analyse the performance of a magnetic fluid based rough, porous composite slider bearing. The bearing surfaces are assumed to be transversely rough. The random roughness of the surfaces is characterized by a stochastical variance with non zero mean, variance and skewness. The associated Reynolds Equation is stochastical averaged with respect to this random roughness parameter solving this Equation in view of suitable boundary conditions. The expression for pressure distribution is obtained leading to the calculation of load carrying capacity. Friction is also computed. It is clearly observed that the load carrying capacity increases due to the magnetization parameter and the bearing surfaces owing to transverse surface roughness in general. However this investigation offers some scope to mitigate the negative effect of roughness by the magnetic fluid lubrication at least in the case of negatively skewed roughness. It is interesting to note that the magnetization fails to alter the friction.

This paper presents the theoretical study and analyzes the comparison of porous structures on the performance of a couple stress fluid based on rough slider bearing. The globular sphere model of Kozeny-Carman and Irmay’s capillary fissures model have been subjected to investigations. A more general form of surface roughness is mathematically modeled by a stochastic random variable with non-zero mean, variance and skewness. The stochastically averaged Reynolds type equation has been solved under suitable boundary conditions to obtain the pressure distribution in turn which gives the expression for the load carrying capacity, frictional force and coefficient of friction. The results are illustrated by graphical representations which show that the introduction of combined porous structure with couple stress fluid results in an enhanced load carrying capacity more in the case of Kozeny-Carman model as compared to Irmay’s model.

The fluid flow processes in a squeeze film having one porous bounding wall are analyzed. The analysis takes account of velocity slip at the surface of the porous medium as well as of the coupled flows in the squeeze film and the porous material. Results are presented for the load-carrying capacity of the squeeze film and its thickness–time relation. The results show that porous media are effective in diminishing the response times of squeeze films. In particular, substantially faster response can be attained by the use of porous materials which accentuate velocity slip.

The Impact

This paper attempts to study a ferrofluid lubrication based rough sine film slider bearing with assorted porous structure using a numerical approach. The fluid flow of the system is regulated by the Neuringer-Rosensweig model. The impact of the transverse surface roughness of the system has been derived using the Christensen and Tonder model. The corresponding Reynolds’ equation has been used to calculate the pressure distribution which, in turn, has been the key to formulate the load carrying capacity equation. A graphical representation is made to demonstrate the calculated value of the load carrying capacity which is a dimensionless unit. The numbers thus derived have been used to prove that ferrofluid lubrication aids the load carrying capacity. The study suggests that the positive impact created by magnetization in the case of negatively skewed roughness helps to partially nullify the negative impact of the transverse roughness. Further investigation implies that when the Kozeny-Carman’s model is used, the overall performance is enhanced. The Kozeny-Carman’s model is a form of an empirical equation used to calculate permeability that is dependent on various parameters like pore shape, turtuosity, specific surface area and porosity. The success of the model can be accredited to its simplicity and efficiency to describe measured permeability values. The obtained equation was used to predict the permeability of fibre mat systems and of vesicular rocks.

The effect of the film shape on the load carrying capacity of a hydrodynamically lubricated bearing has not been considered an important factor in the past. Flat-faced tapered bearing and the Raileigh’s step bearing of constant film thickness have been the primary forms of film shapes for slider bearing studies and design data developments. This article, by the computer aided numerical solution of the Reynolds equation for two dimensional incompressible lubricant flow, investigates hydrodynamically lubricated slider bearings having different film shapes and studies the effect of the film shape on the performance characteristics of finite bearings; and it shows that optimized bearing with film shapes having descending slope toward the trailing edge of the bearing has considerably higher load carrying capacity than the optimized flat-faced tapered bearing of the same properties. For example the truncated cycloidal film shape yields 26.3 percent higher load carrying capacity for Lz/Lx = 1 size ratio, and 44 percent higher for Lz/Lx = 1/2. The article then presents charts for the optimum designs of finite slider bearings having tapered, exponential, catenoidal, polynomial, and truncated-cycloidal film shapes, and illustrates their use in numerical bearing design examples. These charts also furnish information on flow rate, side leakage, temperature rise, coefficient of friction, and friction power loss in optimum bearings. Appended to the article are analytical solutions for infinitely wide bearings with optimum bearing characteristics. The computer aided numerical solution of the Reynolds equation in most general form is presented by which finite or infinitely wide hydrodynamically or hydrostatically lubricated bearings, externally pressurized or not, can be studied. A digital computer program is made available.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to study and analyse the behaviour of a magnetic fluid-based squeeze film between rotating transversely rough porous annular plates, taking the elastic deformation into consideration. Design/methodology/approach – The stochastic film thickness characterizing the roughness is considered to be asymmetric with non-zero mean and variance and skewness while a magnetic fluid is taken as the lubricant. The associated stochastically averaged Reynolds-type equation is solved with appropriate boundary conditions to obtain the pressure distribution, which in turn is used to derive the expression for the load-carrying capacity. Findings – It is observed that the roughness of the bearing surfaces affects the performance adversely, although the bearing registers an improved performance owing to the magnetic fluid lubricant. Also, it is seen that the deformation causes reduced load-carrying capacity. The bearing can support a load even in the absence of flow, unlike the case of conventional lubricants. Originality/value – The originality of the paper lies in the fact that the negative effect of porosity, deformation and standard deviation can be minimized to some extent by the positive effect of the magnetic fluid lubricant in the case of negatively skewed roughness by suitably choosing the rotational inertia and aspect ratio. This effect becomes sharper when negative variance occurs.

The only exact solution for the infinitely long, gas-lubricated slider bearing is the one obtained by Harrison [1] for the plane wedge isothermal film. The resultant formulas for the pressure distribution and load-carrying capacity are complicated and therefore quite cumbersome in numerical design calculations. In the analysis to follow, a simplified, approximate solution is developed which can be applied to any infinitely long slider geometry.
