Continuity, momentum and energy equations are handled simultaneously by interpreting the relation of lubricant motion and pressure distribution through a Transfer Matrix; the temperature dependent character of viscosity is considered in the computations with a convergence criterion of 0.01% for two consecutive temperature distributions within the implemented iterative approach. Numerical investigations are carried with wave amplitude and wave number ranges of 0-200 mu m and 5-105 respectively and the pumping pressures are 1.01-3.01 times the exit value. The computational results point out an optimum upper surface design with a wave number range of 25-45, which not only increases the load capacity but also decreases the power requirement.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessComputer scienceModelContactTractionElastohydrodynamic lubricationViscosityPressure distributionOptimizationMultitaskingMatrix algebraLubricationUpper-surface-wavinessSurface designSlider bearing performanceBearings (machine parts)Article0002364564000602-s2.0-337454265795265343743Computer science, theory & methodsSqueeze Films; Couple Stress; Journal Bearings
