• MODIFIED REYNOLDS EQUATION FOR SQUEEZE FILM LUBRICATION BETWEEN DOUBLE LAYERED POROUS RECTANGULAR PLATES WITH COMBINED EFFECT OF MHD AND CCSF

Abstract

The squeeze film characteristics of double layer porous rectangular plates with combined effect of conducting couplestress fluid (CCSF) and transverse magnetic field are theoretically investigated .The Modified MHD Reynolds type equation is derived and closed form solution for the squeeze film pressure, load carrying capacity and squeeze film time are obtained. From the results obtained, it is observed that, there is significant increase in the squeeze film characteristics for increasing values of couplestress parameter as compared to non-conducting lubricant (NCL) case in the presence of transverse magnetic field. Whereas the effect of permeability parameter is to decrease these squeeze film characteristics.
