Superlubricity in EHL Contacts with Water-Containing Gear Fluids

Fluid friction in elastohydrodynamically lubricated (EHL) contacts depends strongly on the lubricant considered. Synthetic oils can have significantly lower fluid friction than mineral oils. Water-containing fluids have the potential to significantly reduce fluid friction further. The aim of this st...
