On the instantaneous formation of cavitation in hydrodynamic lubrication

Abstract: We consider the Elrod-Adams model extending the classical lubrication Reynold equation to the case of the possible presence of a cavitation region. We show that the behaviour of the pressure and saturation depends crucially of the behaviour of the separation h(t, x, y) among the two surfaces. In particular, we exhibit some simple formulations for which we prove (rigorously) that a cavitation region is formed instantaneously (even for initially saturated flows). Some numerical experiences are also given. To cit… Show more
