Factors affecting friction

The intensity of friction depends on following factors: i) The area involved in friction. ii) The pressure applied on the surfaces. Force = Pressure ´ Area Frictional force will increase, if the area of contact will increase or if pressure applied on the surface increased.

Methods to reduce friction

i) Polish the contact surface. ii) Put oil or grease so that it fills in the small gaps of the flat parts. iii) Use ball bearings to reduce area of contact between rotating parts.

Lubrication

Following methods can be used to reduce friction: Oil is either thin or viscous. It depends upon SAE No. of oil. (SAE means Society of Automotive Engineers). If we use very viscous oil, it does not reach all the parts. Very thin oil will flows away easily and gets wasted. Grease is used in such cases. It is generally used around ball-bearing. Normal grease or oil is never used where there is high pressure, high temperature and high speed. Special lubricants are used in such cases. In cold season the oil becomes thick and in hot season it becomes thin. Therefore selection of lubrication also depends on the season. It is always advisable to refer operating manual of the equipment before selecting the lubricant.

Levart [38]
The food you eat every day provides the nutrients you need to survive. These food components include the macronutrients – protein, carbohydrate and fat – that offer calories as well as play specific roles in maintaining your health. Micronutrients, such as vitamins and minerals, don’t act as an energy source but do serve a variety of critical functions to ensure your body operates as optimally as possible.
