Abstract :
Through optimizing the electric parameters of the resistance-capacitance (R-C) oscillation, a measuring instrument is developed for measurement of EHL oil film thickness. Actual measurement was made with thrust bearing and actual measurements are in good agreement with theoretical calculations
