Sensitivity of TEHL Simulations to the Use of Different Models for the Constitutive Behaviour of Lubricants

This study compares the film thickness, lubricant temperature, and traction curves of two groups of commonly used constitutive models for lubricants in thermo-elastohydrodynamic lubrication (TEHL) modelling. The first group consists of the Tait equation of state, the Doolittle Newtonian viscosity mo...
