- The oil film velocity is a quadratic function of y and is a parabola along the channel thickness direction. The dimensionless velocity increases at first and then decreases with the increase in oil film thickness. The dimensionless velocity of the oil film decreases with the increase in the upper plate velocity and the channel length.
- The oil film temperature is a quartic function of y. The oil film temperature distribution can be divided into three sections: the increasing zone (the channel thickness y = 0–6 μm), the stabilizing zone (y = 6–14 μm) and the decreasing zone (y = 14–20 μm). There are three influencing factors, which are the channel length, the upper plate velocity and the inside temperature of the lower plate. The oil film temperature decreases with the increase in channel length. The oil film temperature increases gradually with the increase in the inside temperature of the lower plate. When δ < 10 μm, the oil film temperature increases with the increase in the upper plate velocity. When δ = 10 μm, the oil film temperature is equal to 293.26 K. When δ > 10 μm, the oil film temperature decreases with the increase in the upper plate velocity.
- The heat flux distribution is affected by the plate thickness and the temperature difference between the inside temperature of the plate and the environment temperature. The heat flux decreases linearly with the increase in the plate thickness, and increases linearly with the increase in the temperature difference. When the temperature difference increases from −1 K to 3 K, the heat flux of the upper plate increases from −4.94 W/m to 14.82 W/m, and the heat flux of the lower plate increases from −4.83 W/m to 14.49 W/m.
