Abstract [en]

The lubricant film thickness between contacting bodies may be determined from interferograms by image analysis. Look-up tables employed in the analysis are obtained from calibration interferograms of contacts of bodies of known shape. Calibration and measurement interferograms are, however, obtained under different pressure conditions and, since the refractive index of lubricants is pressure dependent, the use of look-up tables can introduce significant errors (in the range of 10 per cent). In this paper it is shown that a straightforward correction for this error is available. In an iterative procedure the uncorrected film thickness is first determined through looking up tables. This allows the pressure distribution over the contact to be calculated and a corrected refractive index may then be obtained. The corrected refractive index in turn allows a corrected film thickness to be calculated. This procedure can be followed iteratively. After two iterations the corrections have been found to be of the same order as the resolution yielded by the method, as has been implemented
