Slip Length Rheo-tribometer

Description

  • Measurement of wall slip length with hydrodynamic lubrication for typical material pairings in hydraulics and sealing technology
  • Investigation of liquid processes in narrow lubrication gaps

Research methods

  • Measurement of gap distance and frictional torque
  • Determination of the slip length by linear extrapolation of the frictional torque

Technology

  • Gap distance 1 to 10 µm
  • Frequencies 1 to 50 Hz
  • Torques 0.1 to 10 Nm
  • Temperature 20 to 80 °C
