Abstract: | The dynamic characteristics of a liquid thin film lubricated head disk system are analyzed. The shear thinning effect is taken into account by introducing modification coefficients into the lubricant rheological model. The perturbation theory is employed to set up the dynamic pressure equation. The Reynolds equation and dynamic pressure equations are solved by finite difference method. The results obtained by the difference methods agree well with that calculated by the close solutions. IBM3370 slider is employed as a physical model. The slider of the system can keep flying at 20 nm height, which promises a potential application on high density recording device. |
