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 Reynolds’ equation in the solution of the lubrication problem do define different surface textures of piston-cylinder.

Effect of Oil Feed Groove on Compressor Piston Lubrication
Hacıoğlu, Bilgin; Dursunkaya, Zafer (2008-07-14)
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-cy...
Influence of degree of saturation on the borehole sealing performance of an expansive cement grout
Akgün, Haluk (Elsevier BV, 2000-02-01)
The strength measures of expansive cement grout borehole plugs cast in welded tuff cylinders is investigated as a function of the degree of saturation of the plugged rock cylinder and of borehole size. Details on experimental procedure regarding rock cylinder and cement grout preparation, sample curing conditions, experimental apparatus, sample loading, mechanical characterization of the rock, and cement grout, along with procedures for the determination of the sample saturation assuming uniform saturation,...
Effect of temperature on fatigue properties of Din 35 NiCrMoV 12 5 steel
Önem, Orkun Umur; Gürbüz, Rıza; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2003)
DIN 35NiCrMoV125 (equivalent to AISI 4340), which is a high strength low alloy steel (HSLA), is mainly used at military applications in the production of gun barrels. The main aim of this study was to determine the low cycle fatigue (LCF) behaviour and the influence of temperature on low cycle fatigue failure properties of that steel. Three different temperatures (room temperature, 2500C and 4000C) were used in the experiments in order to analyze the effect of temperature. For each temperature, five strain ...
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 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...
