INFLUENCE OF LUBRICATION AND LUBRICATING OILS ON WEAR CONDITIONS IN DIESEL ENGINE CYLINDERS

This second installment describes work by the Indian Ministry of Railways on ring and liner lubrication. Excessive scraper-ring efficiency and oil alkalinity are conducive to high wear rates in high-temperature zones. When fuels contain sulfur above 1 percent, wear is also accelerated. Other lubricating oil characteristics and engine coolant temperature are also important.
