Additional Options

 

The user can control the viscosity information and the asperity contact information.

     Pressure-Visocity Coefficient [1/Pa]: The user can use the dynamic viscosity as the function of pressure as shown in a following equation. When the pressure-viscosity coefficient is not zero, the defined dynamic viscosity work as the value measured in the atmosphere pressure, .

     Asperity Contact Model: In the case of mixed lubrication region, the asperity contact force is added into the fluid pressure. For more information, click here.
