This article details the findings of a series of twin disc machine adhesion tests that investigated the effects of oil and water mixtures on adhesion at the wheel/rail interface. Oil was found to have a dominant effect on adhesion in the presence of water. Surfaces coated with oil at 4.7×10−3 g/cm2 and sprayed with water had levels of adhesion similar to those coated by a replenishing supply of oil. The tests showed that drying a wet contact can initially give a reduction in adhesion, that increased roughness results in increased adhesion in the presence of oil, and that increased contact pressure improves adhesion in the presence of oil.
