Abstract

Purpose

The purpose of this paper is to investigate squeezing motion between conical plates lubricated by ferro-fluid couple stress lubricants considering convective fluid inertia effects.

Design/methodology/approach

Based upon the Stokes couple stress theory, Ferro-hydrodynamic model of Shliomis and averaged inertia principle, squeeze film characteristics between conical plates are obtained.

Findings

According to the results, it is found that couple stress ferro-fluid lubricants increase squeeze film characteristics. Moreover, with increasing convective fluid inertia parameter, the squeeze film characteristics are increased. In contrast, the dimensionless load-carrying capacity diminishes when half cone angle of conical plate increases.

Originality/value

This paper is relatively original and it describes the squeeze film characteristics between conical plates with ferro-fluid, convective inertia, couple stresses and half cone angle of conical plate effects.
