About this Course
When any two objects are in contact, at least one type of force is acting on the contact point: friction. Friction can cause wearing of material and generate heat.
To minimize the effects of friction, a lubricant is used to partially separate the two objects.
By the end of this course, you will be able to:
- Explain the purpose of lubrication
- Define sliding, rolling, and fluid friction
- State the factors that affect lubrication
- Explain the differences between hydrodynamic, hydrostatic, and boundary lubrication
- Discuss the importance of viscosity in lubricant selection
- Describe the common methods used to lubricate bearings
