  1. 1. Tribological characterization of a ball bearing subjected to an electric field : Electric drivetrain tribology

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskap och matematik

    Author : Muhammad Umar Farooq; [2023]
    Keywords : Ball bearing; electric drivetrain; tribology; electric field; characterization; bearing currents; discharge;

    Abstract : Electric machines are widely used in for instance the automotive industry in electric vehicles and in wind turbines. The electrical machines have mechanical bearings as an integral part used to transmit power and load. In addition, the main function includes reducing friction between interacting surfaces.
