Squeeze Film Lubrication on a Rigid Sphere and a Flat Porous Plate with Piezo-Viscosity and Couple Stress Fluid

The paper aims to conduct a theoretical analysis about squeeze film behaviour with piezo-viscosity on a fluid lubricated with polar additives on a rigid sphere and a flat porous plate. By taking into account of microcontinum theory of stokes, Barus formula and Darcy’s equations, Reynolds equation in modified form is derived by bearing in mind the variation of viscosity along film thickness. An approximate analytical solution for fluid film pressure, dimensionless load and squeezing time is derived. The results are presented numerically and graphically. To make obvious the accuracy, the results are compared with accessible literature and a remarkable similarity is been reported
