Study of wear phenomena of some metal sample under lubricated condition

Abstract

In this work some metal samples made from pure copper and Brass
alloy were prepared and machined as a half bushes with a diameter of 1.6 cm
and length of 1.5 cm .Rockwell method was used to measured the hardness of
samples before running . These samples were placed in wear system testing
under lubricated condition (Iraqi Oil).Different normal loads were applied to
copper and brass samples at different sliding time ,weight loss was measured for
all sample by weighed the sample before and after running and the difference
between them represent the weight loss. Different figures were ploted between
weight loss and wear parameters.
