CONTACT PRESSURE IN CYLINDRICAL SURFACES OF CENTER PLATE ARRANGEMENT

Full Text:

Abstract

Contact pressure is one of main factors that influence level and character of wear and tear of center plate arrangement. Distribution of contact pressure over the contact zone in the case of cylindrical surfaces is unbalanced. A software was developed in order to numerically analyze the influence of different diameters of top (pivot block) and bottom center plate (end thrust bearing) on changing of monitored values. The obtained results have shown that the values of contact pressure depend on clearance between top and bottom parts of center plate arrangement. At the initial stage of operation the values of contact pressure for nominal values of diameters of both top and bottom part of center plate are lower than when they are manufactured with admissible departure.
