Determination of friction coefficients on several distant heat pipe sections with different sliding partners
Abstract
The sticking friction coefficients of supports with different sliding parameters were determined close to operating conditions. Test results on lines in operation with unexpected high sticking friction figures are cited. The sliding partners steel/steel, galvanized steel/steel, and Teflon/steel were studied. The sticking friction values were determined from normal forces, pull force, and displacement measure amplitudes. The results of these tests with steel point to greater values than generally known and refer to values for Teflon/steel bearings.
