Lubrication Theory
MEEN 626 - Lubrication Theory:Class Syllabus FALL06
Instructor: Dr. Luis San Andrés, ENPH 118, Phones: 5-0160, 2-4744, LsanAndres@Mengr.tamu.edu Class Time: T, R 3:55-5:10 pm ENPH 215 Office hours: R: 2:00-3:00 p.m., or by appointment. Catalog Course Description: Development of Reynolds Equation from Navier Stokes equations for study of hydrodynamic lubrication theory as the basis for bearing design; applications to simple thrust and journal bearings and pads of various geometries; hydrostatic lubrication, floating ring bearings, compressible fluid (gas) lubrication, grease lubrication, dynamically loaded bearings, half speed whirl and stability. Prerequisites: MATH 308, MEEN 345 or equivalent. MY OBJECTIVES: To introduce the fundamental physical principles of the classical theory of hydrodynamic lubrication and to review the latest advances and applications to high speed, externally pressurized, turbulent flow bearings and seals with process fluids. To provide guidance on the important aspects of modern lubrication theory and novel applications. The class material emphasizes the understanding of physical principles and the effects of fluid film bearings on the dynamics of rotating machinery. Text Book: San Andrés, L. Modern Hydrodynamic Lubrication Theory, Class Notes (339 pages) available at TEES Copy Center (WERC 221) or pdf files (Notes i-14) available at class web site http://phn.tamu.edu/me626
