Whereas hydrodynamic lubrication in Newtonian fluids can be solved using the existing Reynolds equation, hydrodynamic lubrication in non-Newtonian fluid is much more difficult to solve, because the non-Newtonian constitutive equation is nonlinear. Consequently there is a need for feasible methods and solution for non-Newtonian fluids. Hydrodynamic Lubrication of non-Newtonian Fluids presents a unified solution to hydrodynamic lubrication in non-Newtonian fluids, proposing a flow separation method. In addition, the title gives methods and insight into viscosity in non-Newtonian fluids, the lubrication failure mechanism and fluid lubrication mechanism carrying capacity. The book offers a comprehensive reference solution for hydrodynamic lubrication in non-Newtonian fluids.

Hydrodynamic Lubrication of Non-Newtonian Fluids presents, in twelve chapters, a solution to hydrodynamic lubrication. Three parts cover basic theory, lubrication failure, and numerical methods and procedures. Engineers and technicians working on non-Newtonian fluid lubrication calculation and analysis will find an invaluable reference to the latest thinking on hydrodynamic lubrication. This title offers a feasible method for solving the hydrodynamic lubrication problem for non-Newtonian fluids.
