Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of extreme working condition tribology testing, and in particular to a rotary friction and wear testing device under a high-temperature and high-pressure fluid lubrication environment. Background Art

[0002] Extreme conditions tribology research is an important field that examines the behavior of friction, wear, and lubrication in extreme environments. These environments include high temperature, high pressure, low temperature, vacuum, corrosive conditions, and high loads, and are widely used in industries such as nuclear power, aerospace, petroleum and petrochemicals, machinery manufacturing, energy, and metallurgy. Mastering tribological testing techniques under extreme conditions is crucial to modern industry, as failure of equipment or components under these conditions can have serious consequences. Tribological testing can predict and evaluate the performance of materials under extreme conditions, thereby improving equipment safety and reliability, extending material service life, and reducing maintenance costs. It also provides a deeper understanding of the fundamental mechanisms of friction, wear, and lubrication, providing theoretical support and assurance for related technologies.

[0003] The key equipment for testing and evaluating the tribological properties of materials or surface coatings is typically a friction and wear testing device. The tribological properties of friction pair materials, such as friction coefficient, wear volume, and wear morphology, under different lubrication conditions, as well as wear mechanisms, are crucial areas of research in material friction and wear. Currently, the most commonly used friction and wear testing devices utilize three types of specimens: pin-on-disc, ring-on-block, and disk-on-disc, with reciprocating and rotary sliding modes. An axial load is applied to the end faces of the friction pair, and relative movement of the friction pair is achieved at a certain reciprocating frequency or circumferential rotational speed. Sensors collect data from the test specimen to obtain information such as the friction coefficient and wear volume of the friction pair. However, the friction and wear performance of the friction pair is affected by the operating environment. While some friction and wear testing devices can simulate ambient temperature and pressure water, oil, or air environments, none can simulate high-temperature, high-pressure water environments. Consequently, accurate testing and evaluation of the tribological performance of friction pair materials under these conditions is impossible. Summary of the Invention

[0057] Example

[0058] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, the present invention provides a disc-on-disc high-speed rotating friction and wear test apparatus capable of simulating a high-temperature, high-pressure water medium working environment. The apparatus comprises a lifting device 1 and a loading cylinder 2, both of which are fixed to the top of a test bench bracket 11. The piston rod of the loading cylinder 2 is connected to a tension sensor 3 and a water-cooled loading shaft 4. The top of the high-temperature, high-pressure test chamber 6 is connected to a water-cooling jacket 5 and the bottom is connected to a bearing chamber 7. The oil-cooled main shaft 704 is connected to a torque sensor 13 and a drive motor 10 via a coupling 9. The support 8 is fixed to the test bench bracket 11. A shock-absorbing foot 12 is installed at the bottom of the test bench bracket. A gas control system 14 is connected to the loading cylinder 2, an oil station system 15 is connected to the bearing chamber and the oil-cooled main shaft 6, and a high-pressure water station system 16 is connected to the high-temperature, high-pressure test chamber 6. A data acquisition and control system 17 is electrically connected to the tension sensor 3, the temperature sensor 609, the torque sensor 13, the gas control system 14, the oil station system 15, and the high-pressure water station system 16.

[0059] The lifting device 1 in this embodiment includes a worm gear reduction device 106, which is connected to a sprocket 102 fixed to a support seat 103 through a transmission shaft 101, and is connected to the high-temperature and high-pressure test chamber 6 through a chain 104 and a lifting lock 105. The other side of the chain 104 is connected to a counterweight beam 109 through a guide wheel 107. The counterweight beam 109 is raised and lowered and slid on a linear guide rail 108. The linear guide rail 108 is set on the test bench bracket 11, thereby realizing slow, stable and safe lifting and lowering of the high-temperature and high-pressure test chamber 6.

[0060] In this embodiment, the water-cooling jacket 5 includes a water-cooling joint 501 welded to a water-cooled outer chamber 503. The outer chamber 503 and the inner chamber 505 are assembled together to form a water-cooling cavity 507. This cavity 507 is sealed by an outer sealing ring 502 and axially positioned by a hexagon socket head screw 506. The inner side of the inner chamber 505 is sealed from the water-cooled loading shaft 4 by an inner sealing ring 504. The water-cooling joint 501 communicates with the inner water-cooling cavity 507.

[0061] In this embodiment, an internal water-cooling channel 401 is provided in the water-cooling loading shaft 4. The bottom of the water-cooling loading shaft 4 is connected to a spherical universal joint 402. The contact surface thereof is a convex-concave spherical surface, and the convex spherical surface end is connected to the water-cooling loading rod.

[0062] The external chamber of the high-temperature, high-pressure test chamber is secured by a chamber gland 614, a chamber body 615, and a chamber base 619 using studs 611, stud nuts 612, and gaskets 613. The chamber body 615 is secured to both the chamber gland 614 and the chamber base 619 using spiral wound gaskets 601, achieving high-temperature, high-pressure sealing. An electric heater 610 is inserted into the heating hole of the chamber body 615. A temperature sensor 609 is installed within the chamber, in contact with the medium. The chamber body 615 is equipped with cooling channels 605. The sample loading member 606 is secured to the sample loading member fixing plate 617 and locked to the oil-cooled spindle 704 via a locknut 616. A throttle tooth 618 is mounted on the chamber base 619. The oil-cooled spindle is internally provided with an oil-cooling channel and externally provided with a small-gap throttle tooth.

[0063] The concave spherical end of the spherical universal joint 402 is connected to the loading shaft connecting plate 603. The loading shaft connecting plate 603 is connected to the lower sample fixing plate 608 via a connecting stud 604 and a connecting nut 602. The lower sample 607 is fixed to the lower sample fixing plate 608. This allows the end surfaces of the lower sample 607 and the upper sample 606 to self-align when subjected to an axial load. In other words, when an axial load is applied, the axial load can be evenly applied to the water-cooled loading shaft and the oil-cooled main shaft in a non-concentric state, allowing the end surfaces of the upper and lower sample parts to automatically align and achieve full end surface contact.

[0064] The bearing chamber 7 in this embodiment includes a high-pressure mechanical seal 706, a deflector ring 701, a lip seal 702, and a pair of angular contact ball bearings 703. The rotating parts of the pair of angular contact ball bearings 703 are fixed on the oil-cooled main shaft 704, and the bottom is connected to the oil seal chamber 705.

[0065] For friction and wear tests, specifically:

[0066] a. The lifting device 1 works, the worm gear reduction device 106 starts, and the drive shaft 101 drives the sprocket 102 to rotate; the sprocket 102 engages with the chain 104; under the action of the counterweight beam 109 and the guide wheel 107, the cavity body 615 and the cavity gland 614 are lifted;

[0067] b. Loading the sample: The lower sample piece 607 is fixed on the lower sample piece fixing plate 608, and the upper sample piece 606 is locked on the oil-cooled main shaft 704. The concave spherical end of the spherical universal joint 402 is connected to the loading shaft connecting plate 603. The loading shaft connecting plate 603 is connected to the lower sample piece fixing plate 608 through the connecting stud 604 and the connecting nut 602, which can achieve self-adjustment and leveling of the end faces of the lower sample piece 607 and the upper sample piece 606.

[0068] c. After the sample is loaded, the chamber body 615 and the chamber pressure cover 614 are slowly lowered to the chamber bottom plate 619 under the action of the lifting device 1; at the same time, the chamber body 615, the chamber pressure cover 614 and the chamber bottom plate 619 are locked by the stud bolts 611, the stud nuts 612 and the gaskets 613.

[0069] d. The high-pressure water station system 16 provides flushing water for the high-pressure mechanical seal 706 and the cooling channel 605, and provides a water environment simulating the working pressure for the high-temperature and high-pressure test chamber 6. The water in the high-temperature test chamber 6 is heated by the electric heater 610 to simulate the working temperature, and the temperature is controlled by adjusting the flow of the cooling channel 605.

[0070] e. Supply water to the water-cooling jacket 5 and the inner water-cooling channel 401 of the water-cooling recording shaft 4 through the high-pressure water station system 16 to cool the water-cooling recording shaft 4 and reduce the impact of the high temperature and high pressure test chamber on the size and strength of the water-cooled loading shaft 4.

[0071] f. Start the oil station system 15 to supply oil to the oil-cooling flow channel inside the oil-cooled spindle 704, and through the throttle teeth with a small gap installed at the bottom of the high-temperature and high-pressure test chamber, isolate the high-temperature fluid in the high-temperature and high-pressure test chamber from affecting the performance and strength of the lower high-pressure mechanical seal, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the setup.

[0072] g. The oil-cooled spindle 704 obtains the rotation speed by driving the motor 10, so that the test sample obtains the rotation speed; the gas control system 14 is started to control the piston of the loading cylinder 2 to move upward, and the cylinder piston drives the water-cooled loading shaft 4, and then provides an upward axial load to the lower sample 607 through the loading shaft connecting plate 603 and the lower sample fixing plate 608 to ensure that the upper and lower samples fit together; the upper sample 606 and the lower sample 607 are subjected to rotational friction and wear tests under a high-temperature and high-pressure fluid lubrication environment.

[0073] h. During the test, the friction torque of the upper sample 606 and the lower sample 607 is obtained through the torque sensor 13, and the friction coefficient is obtained through calculation. The data acquisition and control system 17 collects the sensor signals of the entire process and regulates the pressure, temperature, speed and load.

[0074] The device can achieve a water temperature range of 20~320℃, and accurately controls the temperature through an electric heater and a cooling water jacket. The temperature fluctuation range does not exceed ±5℃ at high temperatures. The water pressure range is 0~15 MPa, and the control system is precisely adjusted. The pressure fluctuation range does not exceed ±0.3 MPa at high water pressure. The drive motor drives the upper sample to rotate through the main shaft, and the speed range can be obtained from 1 to 10,000 r / min. At high speeds, the speed fluctuation range does not exceed ±1 r / min.
