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.
