A film thickness analysis for line contacts under pure rolling conditions with a non-Newtonian rheological modelThe non-Newtonian constitutive equation of Winer and Bair (1979) is applied to a conventional isothermal film thickness analysis of line contact lubrication of rolling elements providing dimensionless film thickness equations for four lubrication methods. The equations can be applied to high viscosity and rolling speed and low limiting shear stress cases where Newtonian methods are not applicable. This analysis is based on a reasonable range of limiting shear stress which is smaller than the Newtonian values for low viscosity lubricants.
