Novel Approach to Analyzing Friction Losses by Modeling the Microflow of Lubricating Oil between the Piston Rings and Cylinder in Internal Combustion Engines

This work focuses on the evolution of lubrication wedge shaping in internal combustion piston engines, taking into account liquid microflows on curved surfaces and coating microgeometries. It introduces a new approach to the analysis of friction losses by simulating the microflow of lubricating oil...
