Oil feed grooves are implemented in reciprocating compressor piston applications to assure a constant supply of lubricating oil on bearing surfaces and decrease friction loss. In a hermetically sealed compressor, due to small clearances encountered, oil supply becomes critical in order to prevent the boundary lubrication. Due to the small size of the piston and small piston–cylinder clearance, a partial lubrication regime is present. In the current study, a model that solves Reynolds’ equation for piston-cylinder sliding bearing for a compressor piston with oil feed groove is developed. A parametric study is carried out to investigate the effects of piston oil feed groove design parameters and then arrive at an improved piston performance by using alternative designs for the oil feed groove.

Investigation of the effect of oil groove in the performance of a compressor piston Hacıoğlu, Bilgin; Dursunkaya, Zafer; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006) Oil feed grooves are implemented in reciprocating compressor piston applications to assure a constant supply of lubricating oil on bearing surfaces and decrease friction loss. In a hermetically sealed compressor, due to small clearances encountered, oil supply becomes critical in order not to operate in boundary lubrication regime. Due to the small size of the piston and small piston cylinder clearance, a partial lubrication regime is present. In the current study, a model that solves Reynolds’ equation fo...
Effect of Surface Texture on Compressor Piston Lubrication Hacıoğlu, Bilgin; Dursunkaya, Zafer (null; 2010-07-12) Due to small piston size and small piston – cylinder clearances, a partial lubrication regime is present in hermetically sealed reciprocating compressors. Hence the surface roughness effects on lubrication attract attention. In the current study, a model that solves the average Reynolds’ equation for piston-cylinder bearing for a compressor piston with circumferential oil feed groove is developed. A parametric study is carried out to investigate the effect of surface roughness by implementation of average R...
EFFECT OF ELECTROPLATING PARAMETERS ON "HER" CURRENT DENSITY IN Ni-MoS2 COMPOSITE PLATING Guler, Ebru Saraloglu; Karakaya, İshak; KONCA, ERKAN (2012-03-15) Nickel composites with co-deposited insoluble, solid lubricant particles such as MoS2 have been reported to reduce friction. It is known that hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), competes with nickel deposition. The influence of the electroplating parameters and their interaction effects on the peak current density for HER were studied by fractional factorial design. The parameters and their ranges were; MoS2 concentration (0-30 g/l), temperature (30-50 degrees C), pH (2-4) and surfactants (0-1 g/l). Electrod...
Effect of Electrodeposition Parameters on the Current Density of Hydrogen Evolution Reaction in Ni and Ni-MoS2 Composite Coatings Gueler, E. Saraloglu; KONCA, ERKAN; Karakaya, İshak (2013-04-01) Nickel composites with co-deposited insoluble, solid lubricant particles such as MoS2 have been reported to reduce friction. It is known that hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), competes with nickel deposition. The influence of the parameters and their interaction effects on the peak current density of HER during the electrodeposition of Ni and Ni-MoS2 composite coatings were studied by fractional factorial design. The parameters and their ranges studied were; MoS2 particle concentration (0-30 g/l), temperat...
Effect of fiber and resin type on the axial and circumferencial tensile strength of fiber reinforced polyester pipe Gökçe, Neslihan; Yılmazer, Ülkü; Department of Polymer Science and Technology (2008) In this study, the aim is to investigate the stiffness, longitudinal tensile strength and circumferential tensile strength of short fiber reinforced polyester composite pipes produced by centrifugal casting production method. To achieve this aim, theoretical calculation of modulus of elasticity of pipes was done and then test program was carried out on pipe samples produced with three different resin types which were orthophthalic, isophthalic and vinyl ester resin and three different fiber types which were...
