The emission of electrons from a surface due to heating-referred to as thermionic emission-is examined theoretically for sliding contact. High local temperatures generated by friction at the contacts between rubbing surfaces can activate the emission of electrons and influence tribochemical reactions. A thermal model previously developed by Vick and Furey [1,2] for sliding contact is used to predict the temperature rise over the surface. This predicted temperature rise, along with the bulk temperature of the material, is used in the Richardson--Dushman equation for thermionic emission to predict the current density from the surface. The total current discharged from the surface is obtained from an integration of the current density. Results demonstrate that high local temperatures generated by friction at the contacts between rubbing surfaces can activate the emission of electrons, with local spikes in the current density occurring in the vicinity of the peak temperature. In addition, relatively large changes in both current density and total current result from relatively small changes in either material properties or sliding conditions, such as velocity or applied load. Since the true area of contact is likely to evolve in a highly dynamic fashion, a study using time varying, multiple contacts was also conducted. Results suggest that the locations of high local temperatures and thermionic activity are likely to be short lived and random. 相似文献

Fretting fatigue tests for Ti–6Al–4 V alloy were conducted by use of the plate fatigue specimen with bolt-tightened shoe on both sides of the plate. It was clarified that the repeated bending stress at the contact area where fretting fatigue failure starts linearly decreased as stress over the contact area increased. Fretting fatigue crack starts from the pit where stress concentrate. The pit initiates when fretting debris were removed from the surface striation formed due to the contact slip movement. The fretting fatigue crack initiation mode was transgranular, while the fretting fatigue crack propagation mode was striation. 相似文献

The effect of temperature on the fretting corrosion behaviour of tin plated copper alloy contacts in the temperature range of 25–185 °C, is addressed in this paper. The change in contact resistance with fretting cycles at various temperatures was determined. The contact zone after fretting corrosion test was analyzed using laser scanning microscope, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray spectrometry (EDX), to assess the surface profile, phase content, morphology and compositional changes across the interface. The study reveals that temperature has a greater influence on the extent of fretting corrosion of tin plated copper alloy contacts. The softening of tin is responsible for the extended region of low contact resistance observed at 85 °C. The increase in thickness and the resistance of Cu–Sn intermetallic compounds (IMCs) is responsible for the decrease in surface roughness and the drastic increase in the contact resistance at higher temperatures. The study suggests that the tin plated copper alloy contact system should be considered as copper alloy/IMC/Sn/SnO2 instead tin plated copper alloy. During fretting corrosion test at elevated temperatures, once the top surface layers are worn out, the contact interface is transformed from tin versus tin-to-tin-intermetallic versus tin-intermetallic. The study concludes that tin plated copper alloy contacts are not suitable for high temperature applications. 相似文献

The fretting corrosion behaviour of lubricated tin plated copper alloy contacts at ambient and elevated temperatures is addressed in this paper. At 27 °C, lubrication is very effective and the contact resistance remains stable for several thousand fretting cycles whereas at elevated temperatures (155 °C) the performance of lubricated contact is not appreciable. Surface profile and surface roughness confirm that the lubricated contacts have a smoother profile and experience a lesser damage at the contact zone at ambient as well as at elevated temperatures. The mechanism of fretting corrosion of tin plated contacts appears to be similar with and without lubrication at all the temperatures studied. The difference in performance of the lubricated contacts at ambient and elevated temperatures is due to the faster wear rate of tin coating at elevated temperatures. Oxidation of the contact zone of the lubricated contacts is prevented at all temperatures studied. The study concludes that lubrication is effective in improving the life of the tin plated copper alloy contacts under fretting conditions at ambient temperatures whereas at elevated temperatures lubrication provides only a marginal improvement in performance. The decrease in performance of lubricated tin plated contacts at elevated temperatures is due to the higher wear rate of tin coating and not due to evaporation of the lubricant. 相似文献

In many fretting investigations, tribochemical reactions have been reported to critically determine the wear and friction behavior, however, different and contradictory assessments of the importance of mechanical and thermal effects on these reactions have been suggested. Since fretting is characterized by relatively slow sliding speeds, high temperatures are not generated over the entire nominal contact area. However, evidence for phase transformations, which are typical of high temperatures, have been observed many times in fretting experiments. In other words, there exists a discrepancy between the macro- and micro-scale observations. In our previous experimental and theoretical work, the tribochemical transformations of steel and ceramics were extensively investigated and the presence of very high flash contact temperatures under gross slip fretting was confirmed. In this paper we present a tentative explanation of the mechanism for the observed tribochemical changes under selected fretting conditions, which can also explain the discrepancy in the results from macro- and micro-scale studies. The proposed wear mechanism considers the tribochemical transformations at the asperity spot-to-spot contacts due to high flash temperatures, while the heat generation and dissipation at apparent contact area remain significantly lower. The observed overall wear transition occurs due to gradual accumulation of the transformed material, which in “closed” fretting contacts remains in great part within the contact. 相似文献

The present study is aimed at determining whether or not tribopolymerisation can occur under conditions of fretting contact. Using a high contact stress system consisting of oscillating metal balls loaded against flat steel discs, effects of various monomers on friction, wear, and surface film formation were determined. Monomers were used at 1% concentration in hexadecane. Under the conditions used (90N load, 40 Hz frequency, 300 μm amplitude, for 1 hour), the monomers tested reduced friction or wear or both. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) analysis of the test specimens showed that organic material is presented in the wear scars and depends on the metal system used, the monomer structure, location within the track, and the method of cleaning the surface after a test. With Al-on-steel, the addition of 1% styrene to hexadecane reduced volumetric wear of the disc by 65%; furthermore, positive FTIR evidence of polystyrene in the wear track was obtained. But adimer acid/glycol monomer formed metal soaps, no polymer, and had little effect on wear under these conditions. These results support the hypotheses that addition-type tribopolymerisation can be initiated by exoelectron emission. Additionally, it was found that not only does methyl methacrylate polymerise under the fretting conditions, but the polymer film formed also reacts with the friction contact surface. Taken as a whole, the results of this study of possible tribopolymerisation under fretting conditions support both major hypotheses, namely that: (i) for condensation-type monomers, the most important factor is the temperature of the rubbing surfaces. (ii) For addition-type monomers, it would appear that the effect of exoelectron emission can initiate surface polymerisation even at relatively low surface temperatures, e.g., 10–40°C above ambient. This is in agreement with the negative-ion-radical action mechanism (NIRAM) of boundary lubricant component. Finally, the results obtained in this study demonstrate that the principle of tribopolymerisation developed by Furey and Kajdas can be used as a novel and effective approach to designing specific molecular structures for boundary lubrication under various rubbing conditions. 相似文献

This paper presents a numerical model that maps the evolution of contact pressure and surface profile of Hertzian rough contacting bodies in fretting wear under partial slip conditions. The model was used to determine the sliding distance of the contacting surface asperities for one cycle of tangential load. The contact pressure and sliding distance were used with Archard's wear law to determine local wear at each surface asperity. Subsequently, the contact surface profile was updated due to wear. The approach developed in this study allows for implementation of simulated and/or measured real rough surfaces and study the effects of various statistical surface properties on fretting wear. The results from this investigation indicate that an elastic–perfectly plastic material model is superior to a completely elastic material model. Surface roughness of even small magnitudes is a major factor in wear calculations and cannot be neglected. 相似文献

A study was conducted to quantify fretting fatigue damage and to evaluate the residual fatigue strength of specimens subjected to a range of fretting fatigue test conditions. Flat Ti–6Al–4V specimens were tested against flat Ti–6Al–4V fretting pads with blending radii at the edges of contact. Fretting fatigue damage for two combinations of static average clamping stress and applied axial stress was investigated for two percentages of total life. Accumulated damage was characterized using full field surface roughness evaluation and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The effect of fretting fatigue on uniaxial fatigue strength was quantified by interrupting fretting fatigue tests, and conducting uniaxial residual fatigue strength tests at R=0.5 at 300 Hz. Results from the residual fatigue strength tests were correlated with characterization results.While surface roughness measurements, evaluated in terms of asperity height and asperity spacing, reflected changes in the specimen surfaces as a result of fretting fatigue cycling, those changes did not correspond to decreases in residual fatigue strength. Neither means of evaluating surface roughness was able to identify cracks observed during SEM characterization. Residual fatigue strength decreased only in the presence of fretting fatigue cracks with surface lengths of 150 μm or greater, regardless of contact condition or number of applied fretting fatigue cycles. No cracks were observed on specimens tested at the lower stress condition. Threshold stress intensity factors were calculated for cracks identified during SEM characterization. The resulting values were consistent with the threshold identified for naturally initiated cracks that were stress relieved to remove load history effects. 相似文献

In fretting fatigue process the wear of contact surfaces near contact edges occur in accordance with the reciprocal micro-slippages on these contact surfaces. These fretting wear change the contact pressure near the contact edges. To estimate the fretting fatigue strength and life it is indispensable to analyze the accurate contact pressure distributions near the contact edges in each fretting fatigue process.So, in this paper we present the estimation methods of fretting wear process and fretting fatigue life using this wear process. Firstly the fretting-wear process was estimated using contact pressure and relative slippage as follows:
