This paper investigates the effect of contact geometry, temperature and displacement amplitude on the fretting behaviour of an aero-turbo oil lubricated cylinder-on-flat contact. To be effective, the lubricant needed both to penetrate the contact and then offer protection. Lubricant penetration into the fretting contact is found to be controlled by two physical parameters, namely (i) the width of the contact that remains covered throughout the fretting test and (ii) the lubricant viscosity. The protection offered by the lubricant (assuming that it has successfully penetrated the contact) is influenced by four physical parameters, namely (i) lubricant viscosity, (ii) traverse velocity, (iii) nominal contact pressure and (iv) chemical effects. The relationship between the three experimental parameters which were varied in the programme of work (temperature, fretting displacement and cylinder radius) and physical parameters which influence the protection offered by the lubricant film can be competing, and therefore, complex wear behaviour is observed. The roles of the various parameters in controlling the wear behaviour are presented in a coherent physical framework.

本研究探讨了接触几何参数、温度与位移幅值对航空涡轮机油润滑的圆柱-平面接触副微动行为的影响。要实现有效润滑，润滑油需同时具备侵入接触区域并提供防护的能力。研究发现，润滑油侵入微动接触区域的过程受两个物理参数调控：一是贯穿整个微动试验始终保持覆盖状态的接触区域宽度，二是润滑油黏度。假设润滑油已成功侵入接触区域，其所能提供的防护性能则受四个物理参数影响：分别为润滑油黏度、往复运动速度、名义接触压力以及化学效应。本研究中调控的三项实验参数（温度、微动位移与圆柱半径）与影响润滑油膜防护性能的物理参数之间可能存在相互制约的关系，因此会观测到复杂的磨损行为。本文将在统一的物理框架下阐明各类参数对磨损行为的调控作用。
