The paper discusses the course of possible electric charge displacement processes through the friction zone during a single research cycle. The conditions for the occurrence of electrochemical (chemical) reactions during the operation of a friction node are provided. Using the example of a friction node consisting of two rings interacting with their side surfaces, the possibility of electric charge displacement without reactions or with a negligible contribution of electrochemical (chemical) reactions is justified. To compensate for tribological wear through electrochemical phase transformations, it is advisable to use a stable electric field (generated in an additional, controlled electrical circuit) and selected electrochemical processes.Currently, tribological machines are being produced – testers with a kinematic node available for research [1,2]. The control and measurement systems of tribological devices allow for the calibration and testing of measurement paths, control of the test process, performance of measurements, and processing of test results. The proposed testers differ in the geometry of the loaded and loading system. Physicochemical studies of materials taking (…)
