K. Liu et al., A COMPREHENSIVE STUDY OF THE FRICTION AND DYNAMIC MOTION OF THE PISTON ASSEMBLY, Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part J, Journal of engineering tribology, 212(J3), 1998, pp. 221-226
A mixed lubrication model based on a two-dimensional average Reynolds
equation is presented in this paper. It is developed for use in conjun
ction with a piston secondary motion analysis. The motion has been stu
died and the effects of structure parameters and different profiles of
piston skirts on the motion are also investigated. The friction force
and power loss consisting of piston skirt friction and the friction o
f the piston ring pack are also given.
