The Basics of

Lubricants and lubrication


Hussam Adeni

Lube.specialist@gmail.com
Meaning of lubrication

Friction - is created when there is


relative motion between two surfaces
Resistance to motion is defined as
friction
Lubrication is use of a material
between surfaces to reduce friction
Any material used is called a lubricant

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Methods of lubrication

Two main methods


Hydrodynamic lubrication
Boundary lubrication

Hydrodynamic lubrication
Also called complete or full flow
Occurs when two surfaces are
completed separated by a fluid film

Methods of lubrication cont..

Two main methods


Hydrodynamic lubrication
Boundary lubrication

Boundary lubrication
Occurs when Hydrodynamic lubrication
fails.
By adsorption or chemical reaction

Function of a lubricant

Lubricate - Reduce friction


Cooling - Heat transfer
Cleaning - Detergency
Noise pollution - dampening
Sealing prevent leakage
Protection prevent wear

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Lubricate reduce friction

The effects of friction


Metal to metal contact
Leads to wear and tear
Generates heat
Results in Power loss
Lubricant reduces friction by
forming a film
Reduces ill effect of friction
Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com
Cooling

When fuel is burnt in an engine


33% is useful power
33% removed by cooling water
33% by lube oil and radiation
Lube oil removes heat from all areas
and brings it to the engine sump.
Improper cooling can lead to over
heating, lead to wear, distortion and
failure.
Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com
Cleaning

Cleans carbon and varnish deposits


Flushes the entire system removing
Soot
Deposits
Acids
Wear products
Moisture
Removes external contaminants dust,
moisture (external)
Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com
Noise reduction

Reduce noise
By preventing metal to metal contact
Dampens noise
As between camshaft and tappet

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Sealing

Oil film
Between piston ring and liner
Helps in creating a gas tight seal

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Protection

Protection against acids and


moisture

Very important to increase life of


component and equipment

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Properties of lubricants

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Properties of lubricants

Kinematic viscosity
Measure of internal resistance to flow
Thickness of fluid (in laymen terms)
Decreases with increase in temperature
Important in lubricant selection
Increase in used oil indicates oxidation
Specified at 40C and 100C
Measured in Centi Stokes (CSt)

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Kinematic Viscosity -
Recommendations

Low Viscosity oils used


High speeds
Low pressure
Low temperature
High Viscosity oils used
Low speeds
High pressure
High temperature
Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com
Properties of lubricants

Viscosity index
Measure of fluids change of viscosity
with temperature.
Empirical number
Higher the VI lower will be the
change of viscosity with temperature
Indicator of temperature range of
operations

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Properties of lubricants

Pour Point
Lowest temperature at which the fluid
will flow
Indicates lowest operating
temperature
Measured in C

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Properties of lubricants

Flash Point
Lowest temperature at which the vapor
above the liquid will ignite under flame
Indicated safe maximum temperature of
operation.
Indicator of volatility
Test method - COC and PMCC
Measured in C

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Properties of lubricants

Total Base Number (TBN)


Measured the acid neutralizing
reserve in oil.
Important for deciding discard of oil
Decreases due to
Oxidation of oil
Water contamination
Fuel contamination
Measured in Mg KOH/gm of oil

Hussam Adeni Lube.specialist@gmail.com


Lab Tests - for lubricants

Kinematic viscosity ASTM D 445


Viscosity index ASTM D 2250
