Finite Element Solution of Monopolar Corona Equations

Research Abstract
In this paper, the monopolar corona equation is solved using a modified finite element method (FEM) to give the corona current caused by overhea dc transmission lines without using the commonly-used Deutsch's assumption The method is free from empiricism and entails implicitly a decrease of thsurface field intensity of the conductor with the applied voltage in the same manner as observed experimentally. This in itself represents an additional improvement for the analysis of ionized field where the approximation pertinent to the assumption of constant surface field intensity is mitigated. The calculated corona current as well as the current density at the ground plane agreed with those measured experimentally for a laboratory model

Effect of magnetic field on the friction and wear displayed by the scratch of oil lubricated steel

Research Abstract
The present work discusses the effect of magnetic field on the friction and wear of steel scratched by TiC insert. The steel was lubricated by oil and dispersed by iron, copper and aluminium powders as well as polymeric powders such as high density polyethylene (PE), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and polyamide (PA6). Molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) and graphite (C) were added to the oil as dispersant. Paraffin oil was used as lubricant. Friction coefficient and wear of the tested composites were investigated using a tribometer designed and manufactured for that purpose. It was found that application of induction magnetic field decreased friction coefficient. The decrease was significant for oil lubricated steel and oil dispersed by aluminium, copper, PMMA and PA6 + 10 wt. % C, while addition of iron, PE and MoS2 particles showed slight friction decrease. At no magnetic field friction coefficient for oil dispersed by aluminium and copper particles showed values lower than that observed for oil dispersed by iron particles. The lowest values of friction coefficient were displayed by oil dispersed by PE particles. Magnetic field caused significant wear increase for oil lubricated steel, where aluminium, copper and PA6 + C particles displayed relatively higher wear, while addition of iron, PE, PMMA and MoS2 particles showed slight wear increase. At no magnetic field wear decreased due to the action of aluminium particles which formed a continuous layer on the steel surface and consequently decreased wear. Wear of oil lubricated steel dispersed by PE particles displayed relatively low values. Magnetic field showed no significant change on wear of the steel surface.

Influence of Magnetic Field on the Friction and Wear Caused by the Scratch of Oil Lubricated High Density Polyamide

Research Abstract
The present work discusses the influence of magnetic field on the friction and wear of polyethylene as bearing materials scratched by steel insert in the presence of different oil. Tests were carried out at oil lubricated surfaces. Paraffin, Fenugreek, Camphor, Cress, Olive, Almonds, Sesame, Aniseed and Habet El-Baraka oils were used as lubricants. The friction coefficient and wear of the tested composites were investigated using a tribometer designed and manufactured for that purpose. It was found that, at no magnetic field, friction coefficient increased with increasing applied load. The maximum value of friction coefficient was displayed in the presence of paraffinic oil, while the minimum values were displayed by olive and Habet El Baraka oils. As the magnetic field of 0.2 mG flux intensity was applied on the sliding surface significant friction decrease was observed. The rank of the tested oils as friction reducer was Olive, Camphor, Aniseed, Habet El Baraka, Fenugreek, Cress, Sesame, Almond and Paraffin. Camphor oil was much influenced by the application of the magnetic field. Increasing the flux intensity of magnetic field to 0.3 mG was accompanied by further decrease of friction coefficient. Wear of the polyethylene lubricated by the tested oil increased with increasing applied load. In the presence of Almonds oil on the sliding surfaces wear displayed the lowest values, while Olive oil displayed the highest wear. Application of the magnetic field significantly decreased wear. The best wear resistance was displayed by Aniseed and Fenugreek oils, while Paraffin and Almonds oils displayed the highest wear values.

Influence of Magnetic Field on the Action Mechanism of Lubricant Additives

Research Abstract
The present work investigates the influence of magnetic field on the friction coefficient displayed by the sliding of steel pin on aluminium disc lubricated by paraffin oil and dispersed by different lubricant additives such as zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDP), molybdenum disulphide (MoS2), heteropolar organic based additive (CMOC), graphite (C), detergent additive (calcium sulphonate) (DA), polytetrafluroethylene (PTFE) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Aluminium was used as friction counterface to reduce the magnetic force acting on the contact surfaces when the magnetic field was applying. The present experiments showed that, for surfaces lubricated by paraffin oils free of additives friction coefficient increased with increasing applied load. As the magnetic field increased friction coefficient increased. In condition of application of magnetic field it was found that when the paraffin oil was dispersed by ZDDP, MoS2, DA and PTFE friction coefficient increased, while COMC, C and PMMA showed significant decrease in friction coefficient. Besides, the lowest values of friction coefficient were observed for PTFE particles dispersed in the oil.
