Popis: Abstract Tribological behaviors of laser textured surface with elliptical dimples were experimentally compared with that of the smooth one under different lubrication conditions, including the poor-oil, rich-oil and dry lubrication. The lubrication regime was analyzed with the increasing operating load by ring-on-ring tribological tests. Finally, the performance impact of rolling piston rotary compressor with textures fabricated on the thrust surfaces was investigated. Results show that the tribological improvement strongly depends on lubrication condition. With the increase of applied loads under rich-oil and poor-oil lubrication, the effect of micro dimple promotes the critical load transforming lubrication regime, and expands the range of hydrodynamic lubrication, meanwhile maintains a similar minimum of friction coefficient as the smooth surface but enhances wear resistance. However, it is reverse to increase the friction coefficient and surface wear for the textured surfaces under dry lubrication. The compressor performance can be improved significantly by laser surface texturing with a 2% reduction of friction power consumption and a 2.5% enhancement of energy efficiency ratio.
