fluid lubrication
1Lubrication — is the process, or technique employed to reduce wear of one or both surfaces in close proximity, and moving relative to each another, by interposing a substance called lubricant between the surfaces to carry or to help carry the load (pressure… …
2Fluid bearing — Fluid bearings are bearings which solely support the bearing s loads on a thin layer of liquid or gas.They can be broadly classified as fluid dynamic bearings, hydrostatic or gas bearings. They are frequently used in high load, high speed or high …
3lubrication — See lubricate. * * * Introduction of any of various substances between sliding surfaces to reduce wear and friction. Lubricants may secondarily control corrosion, regulate temperature, electrically insulate, remove contaminants, or damp shock.… …
4Lubrication theory — A branch of fluid dynamics, lubrication theory is used to describe the flow of fluids (liquids or gases) in a geometry in which one dimension is significantly smaller than the others.Interior flows are those where the boundaries of the fluid… …

6fluid film lubrication — A type of lubrication in which the surfaces to be lubricated are separated by a substantial quantity of oil. The oil has the effect of keeping the two surfaces apart. Also called hydrodynamic lubrication …
7Cutting fluid — Thin wall milling of aluminum using a water based cutting fluid on the milling cutter. Cutting fluid is a type of coolant and lubricant designed specifically for metalworking and machining processes. There are various kinds of cutting fluids,… …
8Vaginal lubrication — is the naturally produced lubricating fluid that reduces friction during sexual intercourse. It is typically produced with women s sexual arousal, but also can be produced when there is no arousal. While plasma seepage from vaginal walls due to… …
9Hydrodynamic lubrication — Hydrodynamic (HD) lubrication (or fluid film lubrication) has essential elements:#A lubricant, which must be a viscous fluid. #Hydrodynamic flow behavior of fluid between bearing and journal. #The surfaces between which the fluid films move must… …
10Boundary lubrication — Brief description of lubricationLubrication is the process, or technique employed to reduce wear of one or both surfaces in relative motion to one another by interposing a substance called lubricant between the surfaces to carry or to help carry… …
