Abstract

An attempt has been made to study and analyze the behavior of a hydromagnetic squeeze film between conducting porous transversely rough truncated conical plates. The associated Reynolds' equation is solved with appropriate boundary conditions to investigate the behavior of performance characteristics. The results indicate that the performance of the bearing system gets enhanced vis-à-vis a bearing system working with a conventional lubricant. This article reveals that the negative effect induced by porosity and standard deviation can be overcome completely by the positive effect of the magnetization parameter and conductivities by choosing suitable aspect ratio and the semi-vertical angle in the case of negatively skewed roughness.
