    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap och fysik (from 2013)

    Author : Viktor Lange; [2023]
    Keywords : Tribology; friction; wear; steam; steam engine; ranotor; invencon; invencon AB; steel; contact mechanics; hexagonal boron nitride; molybdenum disulfide; tungsten disulfide; lubricants; solid lubricants; Tribologi; friktion; nötning; ånga; ångmotor; stål; kontaktmekanik; smörjning; smörjmedel; fasta smörjmedel;

    Abstract : This thesis aims to investigate the coefficient of friction between steel on steel contacts with the addition of solid lubricants such as h-BN, WS2, MoS2 in powder form, in dry conditions and wet conditions. More specifically, the purpose is to enhance the sliding between the piston rings and cylinder block in a modern high temperature steam engine developed by RANOTOR. READ MORE

  3. 2. Self Lubricating Components

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för teknikvetenskaper

    Author : Simon Tidén; Niklas Levin Bjärnlid; Tim Melin; Daniéla Quist; Filip Selenius Larsson; [2017]
    Keywords : self lubricating; solid lubricant; high speed steel; powder metallurgy; friction; wear; molybdenum disulfide; tungsten disulfide; hexagonal boron nitride; soft metals; copper;

    Abstract : The tribological and mechanical properties are of great importance for a material’s lifetime, since it is highly dependent on these two factors. The purpose of this report was to examine suitable solid lubricants for Erasteel, a company that manufactures hot isostatic pressed high speed steels, that will enhance the tribological properties of their steels without worsening the mechanical properties.
