Orcutt, (Mechanical Technology, Inc.) ; K 63-13750, Sci. and Tech. Aerospace Repts., I (8) (1963) 526; 2~ pp., ro refs. .A study was made of surface temperature in rolling-sliding contacts using elastohydrodynamic lubrication in an effort to extend machine life and reliability. Use of thcrmocouples to obtain temperature measurements of a surface in concentrated rolling-sliding contact proved satisfactory. Overall electrical noise level in the thermocouple circuit was reduced to a level equivalent to I’ to ~~1~
temperature differenrc so tllat a dynxn~~r measurement sensitivity of the order of 2 *)I3°F could be predicted with c(mfidcncc. I,‘oI the low loads and rolling speeds used in 1111, cxpcriments to date (Lo.000 p.5.i. maximum contact pressure. 600 r.pm.), there was no detectable surface tempcraturc rise in the contact zone except at ycry high sliding-rolling speed ratios (as high as oo”(,).

contains the results and conclusions of a study of the four basic factors (surface dcformation, surface roughness, squeeze films, viscoelasticity) which influence gear lubrication and load-carrying capacity. A review of the techniques used in these investigations is included. (For earlier work by MacConochie, see Weav, 4 (1961) IO.) The Adhesion of Plane Plates, Separated by a Layer of Oil.
