  • Friction Modifier Additives
    FRICTION MODIFIER ADDITIVES Hugh Spikes Tribology Group, Imperial College London, UK ABSTRACT The need for energy efficiency is leading to the growing use of additives that reduce friction in thin film boundary and mixed lubrication conditions. Several classes of such friction modifier additive exist, the main ones being organic friction modifiers, functionalised polymers, soluble organo-molybdenum additives and dispersed nanoparticles. All work in different ways. This paper reviews these four main types of lubricant friction modifier additive and outlines their history, research and the mechanisms by which they are currently believed to function. Aspects of their behaviour that are still not yet fully understood are highlighted. Keywords: Friction; lubricant additives; OFM; molybdenum additives; functionalised polymers; nanoparticles; boundary lubrication 1. INTRODUCTION In order to reduce energy consumption and thus CO2 emissions it is necessary to increase the energy efficiency of mechanical systems and an important way to achieve this is to design lubricants that give low friction in machine components. One design approach is to optimise liquid lubricant rheology so as to minimise hydrodynamic shear, churning and pumping losses. In practice this often means reducing lubricant viscosity to the lowest possible value consonant with maintaining fluid or mixed film lubrication. Another approach is to add small proportions of friction modifier additives to the lubricant in order to reduce friction in the boundary and mixed lubrication regimes. In practice both of these approaches are best applied concurrently since, as lubricant viscosity is progressively reduced, contacts are separated by thinner and thinner hydrodynamic films and so operate increasingly the regimes where friction modifier additives are effective.

CLAUDE LEVI-STRAUSS´ Abstract The reduction of the interfacial friction between two surfaces in relative motion is a prerequisite for the proper functioning of many systems, ranging from machine parts to human joints. While the lubrication of two contacting surfaces primarily aims at the reduction of friction and wear, either by a separation of the surfaces by means of a fluid film or by introducing a layer of low shear strength between them, additional requirements such as the environmental compatibility of a lubricant or the energy efficiency of tribological systems have become important during recent years.

  • PREDICTION of POWER LOSSES in an AUTOMOTIVE GEARBOX INCORPORATING a THERMALLY COUPLED LUBRICATION MODEL’ and the Work Presented in It Are My Own
    PREDICTION OF POWER LOSSES IN AN AUTOMOTIVE GEARBOX INCORPORATING A THERMALLY COUPLED LUBRICATION MODEL by Athanasios Christodoulias This dissertation is submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) and Diploma of Imperial College (DIC) in the Tribology group Department of Mechanical Engineering Imperial College London June 2017 ABSTRACT The continuous tightening of environmental standards, and in particular the stricter vehicle CO2 emission regulations, have put increased pressure on passenger vehicle manufacturers to develop more efficient components. One way of improving fuel consumption and reducing emissions in a vehicle is by reducing the friction-related power loss in major components such as the engine and the transmission. Between 5% and 6% of the total fuel energy that the car converts is lost through friction in the transmission and ends up as heat being absorbed by the transmission lubricant. The principal aim of this project was developing a method to accurately predict power losses in the gearbox -the main transmission component- while at the same time having the ability to assess the influence of lubricant properties on the gearbox efficiency. For this purpose, a thermally coupled numerical model was developed, incorporating lubricant parameters extracted from rheological tests. The model calculates the friction coefficient in gear elastohydrodynamic (EHL) contacts and then uses it in an iterative scheme to predict in-contact and bulk temperatures as well as power losses. Finally, the model’s predictions for gears are coupled to current experimentally derived models for bearing and churning losses. The method has been applied to a single speed gearbox and a manual six speed automotive gearbox.

The first international Bearing World Conference, initiated and organised by FVA, took place in April 2016. More than 200 experts from 11 countries met in Hanover to share the latest research findings in the world of bearings. With Bearing World Journal, our aim is to continue this exchange among international experts by regularly publishing high-quality scientific reports related to rolling and plain bearings.

  • The Mechanisms of Wet Clutch Friction Behaviour
    The Mechanisms of Wet Clutch Friction Behaviour by Marc Philip Ingram A thesis submitted to Imperial College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and Diploma of Imperial College (D.I.C.) January 2010 Tribology Section Department of Mechanical Engineering Imperial College London Abstract Wet clutches are used in automatic transmissions to bring about gear changes and also to reduce energy loss in the torque converter. These friction devices are susceptible to stick-slip effects, which result in the vehicle giving an unsteady ride. Stick-slip effects can be avoided by ensuring the wet clutch and lubricant combination produces a friction coefficient that increases with sliding speed. This friction characteristic is achieved by using a specific material on one of the two clutch surfaces and by using certain surface active chemicals, which are added to the lubricant. Although wet clutches have been studied throughout the industry for many decades, the mechanism of the generated friction is still not fully understood. In this thesis the friction mechanisms are clarified by the experimental study of the wet clutch in terms of its real area of contact, its flash temperatures and the friction characteristics, which are measured over a broad range of conditions. These results are used along with theoretical calculations to first clarify the lubrication regime, which is found to be predominantly boundary due to the roughness of the friction material and the small size of the contact units formed. The generated friction is then attributed to surface active additives, which form solid-like films on the clutch surfaces. These friction characteristics can be modified by varying the nature of the solid-like film, and when a close-packed film is formed, this displays the friction increasing with speed characteristic due to an activated shearing mechanism, which is linked to the speed of molecular rearrangement at the surface.
