Magnetic Fluid-Based Squeeze Film Behaviour in Curved Porous-Rotating Rough Annular Plates and Elastic Deformation Effect

الملخص EN

Efforts have been directed to study and analyze the squeeze film performance between rotating transversely rough curved porous annular plates in the presence of a magnetic fluid lubricant considering the effect of elastic deformation.

A stochastic random variable with nonzero mean, variance, and skewness characterizes the random roughness of the bearing surfaces.

With the aid of suitable boundary conditions, the associated stochastically averaged Reynolds' equation is solved to obtain the pressure distribution in turn, which results in the calculation of the load-carrying capacity.

The graphical representations establish that the transverse roughness, in general, adversely affects the performance characteristics.

However, the magnetization registers a relatively improved performance.

It is found that the deformation causes reduced load-carrying capacity which gets further decreased by the porosity.

This investigation tends to indicate that the adverse effect of porosity, standard deviation and deformation can be compensated to certain extent by the positive effect of the magnetic fluid lubricant in the case of negatively skewed roughness by choosing the rotational inertia and the aspect ratio, especially for suitable ratio of curvature parameters.
