When one body slides across another a resistive force must be overcome.
Friction
Force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.

Friction is Caused by Micro welds
Types of friction:
a. Static (usually the greatest)
b. Sliding
c. Rolling (usually the least)

Classification of Lubricants
• Animal
• Vegetable
• Mineral
• Synthetic
These are highly stable at normal temperaturesAnimal lubricants may not be used for internal combustion because they produce fatty acids
Animal and vegetable oils have a lower
coefficient of friction than most mineral
oils but they rapidly wear away steel
Examples of vegetable lubricants are:
Castor oil
Olive oil
Cottonseed oil

Lubricants
All liquids will provide lubrication of a sort, but some
do it a great deal bettor than others.
– Provide high quality products, supported by successful field experience.
– Work to lower maintenance.
- Work to Lower cost of operation through value added services.
– Provide products to help Machine for long operation.
Oil Requirement :
Lubricating oils
![Page 17: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• are improved heat dissipation from the friction point
• its excellent penetrating and wetting properties.
Lubricating oils
The advantages of a lubricating oil .
Complex design is required to keep
the oil at the friction point and
prevent the danger of leakage.
main disadvantage Lubricating
oils are used

![Page 18: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Purpose of Oils
• Oil reduces friction between moving parts– Lubrication – slippery surface between moving parts
– Seal – between piston rings and cylinder surface
– Cool – especially bearings (dissipate heat)
– Clean – contaminates held in suspension (wear particles)
Change oil before winter lay-up so
contaminates are removed and do not
damage the machine during storage
Different lubricants show different behavior regarding these
requirements.

Lubricating oils
• Lubricating oils consist of a base oil and additives which determine their performance characteristics. The additives, however, determine its actual performance by influencing the base oil’s.
• oxidation stability.
• anticorrosion properties.
• wear protection.
• emergency lubrication properties.
• wetting behavior.
• emulsibility.
• stick-slip behavior.
• viscosity-temperature behavior.
Main tasks, remain lubrication and protection against friction and wear.

Synthetic oil Engine oil Transmission fluid. Refrigeration oil. Compressor oils.Metalworking fluids and oils. Laminating oils. Industrial hydraulic fluid. Copper and aluminum wire drawing solution. Electrical insulating oil. Industrial process oils. Oils used as buoyants. This list does not include all types of used oil.
These lubricants
are used to a
large extent in
the lubrication.
Mineral & synthetic Oil
![Page 22: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Mineral & synthetic Oil
Oils are generally classified as refined and synthetic.
Oils are refined from crude.
Oil while synthetic oils are manufactured.
-Synthetic lubricants are produced from chemical synthesis.
-These oils are generally superior to petroleum (mineral)
lubricants in most circumstances.
-Synthetic oils perform better than mineral oils.
Petroleum (mineral) lubricants are produced from the
refinement of existing petroleum
![Page 23: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Synthetic Lubricants
• Because of the high
operating temperatures of
gas-turbine engines, it
became necessary to
develop lubricants which
would retain their
characteristics at
temperatures that cause
petroleum lubricants to
evaporate and break down.
Synthetic lubricants do not
break down easily and do not
produce coke or other deposits
![Page 24: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• notable at either very low
or very high temperatures.
• Good oxidation stability
• lower coefficient of
friction permits operation
at higher temperatures.
• The better viscosity index
and lower pour points
permit operation at lower
temperatures
Synthetic Oil
The major is the initial cost,
which is approximately three
times higher than mineral-
based oils.
However, the initial premium is
usually recovered over the life
of the product, which is about
three times longer than
conventional lubricants.
The higher cost makes it
inadvisable to use synthetics in
oil systems experiencing leakage
Advantages of synthetic Oil Disadvantage to synthetic oils
![Page 25: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Petroleum Lubricants
Petroleum lubricants stand high in metal-wetting ability, and
they possess the body, or viscosity characteristics.
oils have many additional properties that
are essential to modern lubrication, such as:
-good water resistance.
-Inherent rust-preventive characteristics.
-Natural adhesiveness.
-Relatively good thermal stability.
-Ability to transfer frictional heat away
from lubricated parts.

Characteristics of Lubricating Oils
Cloud Point4
The cloud point is the temperature at which the separation of
wax becomes visible in certain oils under prescribed testing
conditions.
Pour Point5
The pour point of an oil is the temperature at which the oil
will just flow without disturbance when chilled.
Carbon-Residue Test6
The purpose of the carbon-residue test is to study the carbon-
forming properties of a lubricating oil.
![Page 29: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Precipitation number8
The precipitation number recommended by the ASTM
(American Society for Testing and Materials) is the number of
milliliters of precipitate formed when 10 mL of lubricating
oil is mixed with 90 mL of petroleum naphtha under specific
conditions and then centrifuged
![Page 30: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Lubricant Additives
-Additives are most effective in overall performance of an oil .
-A poor oil cannot be converted into a quality oil by additives.
-There are limits to the amount of additives that can be added.
additive may function in any of the following three ways:
Protecting lubricated surfaces. Additives coat the
lubricated surfaces and prevent wear or rust
Improving performance. Viscosity index improvers
and antifoaming agents are examples.
Protecting the lubricant itself. Antioxidants reduce
the tendency of oil to oxidize and form sludge.

Viscosity
With lubricating oils, viscosity is one of the most fundamental properties, and much of the story of lubrication is built around it.
viscosity a measure of a resistance to flow
Thick fluids, like molasses, have relatively
high viscosities; they do not flow readily.
Thinner fluids, such as water, flow very
easily and have lower viscosities.
Lubricating oils are available in a wide
variety of viscosities

Lubricating Greases
• Lubricating greases consist of a lubricating oil, a thickening
agents and one or more additives.
![Page 53: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)

Lubricating Greases
Today’s new-generation greases are expected to do much more than lubricate. They must meet a wide range of demanding performance requirements.
• Long, trouble-free service life, even at
high temperatures
• Rust and corrosion prevention
• Dependable, low-temperature start-up
• Resistance sling and water wash.
The function of grease is to remain in contact with and lubricate moving
surfaces without leaking out under gravity or centrifugal action, or be
squeezed out under pressure.
![Page 55: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
• Lubricating greases consist of a lubricating
oil, a thickener and one or more additives.
• The thickener is responsible for the
characteristics of the grease
Lubricating Greases
Complex greases generally have a higher drop point.
More resistant to oxidation.
Synthetic thickeners are most resistant to temperature.
Extensive testing is done to verify properties.
The advantage of a lubricating grease over an oil is that it
Remains at the friction point for a longer time.
less effort is required in terms of design.
Its disadvantage is that grease neither dissipates heat nor
removes wear particles from the friction point.

extended period of time.
(2) Machinery that is not easily accessible for frequent
lubrication.
(3) Machinery operating under extreme conditions such as high
temperatures and pressures, shock loads, or slow speed under
heavy load.
(4) Worn components. Grease maintains thicker films in
clearances enlarged by wear and can extend the life of worn
parts that were previously oil lubricated.

This is another area in which
different manufacturers
give differing
recommendations.
However, to provide
guidance on the amount of
grease to be added for
different size motors, a
grease weight versus shaft
diameter curve was
determined to provide the
most useful information.

Proper lubrication of bearings is a difficult problem to
tackle. Unless the lubrication technician is able to hear
the sound of the bearing during actual lubrication, it's
a guessing game. Now the guesswork is over.
The Ultra-Lube allows you to hear the voice of the bearing
as it is being lubricated. It easily attaches to a grease
gun, turning it into a sensitive listening device.
The Ultra-Lube provides the user with feedback about the
current lubrication status of components about to be
lubricated.
The Ultra-Lube is attached to and becomes an integral part
of the grease-gun.
Upon connecting the gun to the grease nipple the operator
is able to listen to the electronically amplified noise
through the headset and is able to discern problems
associated with lack of lubricant or too much
lubricant.
No additional procedure is necessary other than to
continue to grease components in the normal manner.

All lubricants are the end product of
much careful research, refining, and
testing.
During storage after delivery, however,
several things can happen to impair
quality.
-Careless handling.
-Contamination.
-Exposure to abnormal temperatures.
-Confusion of stocks.
all these factors can result in wastage,
damage to machinery, deterioration of
lubricants, higher maintenance costs,
and loss of production.

Air Contaminant
Air can exist in oil in
three different states:
dissolved.
entrained .
foam.
Causes of Excessive Air
Contamination
-When a lubricating oil
becomes contaminated
with water
-loss of antifoam additives
-suction leaks
-poor reservoir design
-using the wrong viscosity
![Page 91: Principles of lubrication new](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042511/55b063b21a28aba8288b46c3/html5/thumbnails/91.jpg)
Effects of Air Contamination
Air contamination can have negative effects on the machine and
the lubricant.
Air can damage a lubricating oil by increasing the rate of
oxidation
reducing its heat transfer coefficient and reducing its film strength
Machine wear can be generated by air contamination by several
mechanisms
film thickness become compressible.
In hydraulics, entrained air can create other problems as well,
such as spongy operations, loss of controls and an increased
likelihood of surface deposits in valves.

of surface contact modes, material
compositions and operating profiles,
including:
• Single-sided
• Double-sided
• Vertical shaft
• Horizontal shaft
• Solid housing
• Split housing
• Thin wall
• Thick wall ..etc
Plain or journal bearings are used
for high radial loads and low- to
high speeds. Typical applications
include turbines, large milling
systems, engine cranks, compressors,
gearboxes, shaft bearing supports, ...

Task-Lubricant selection for plain bearing
Under normal operating
conditions, the lubrication
regime is a hydrodynamic
full-fluid film. A
hydrodynamic film occurs
when there is sufficient
lubricant between the
lubricated surfaces at the
point of loading to form a
fluid wedge that separates
the sliding surfaces. In this
state, the lubricated
components do not touch
each another, reducing
friction and wear.

If the load or the speed changes, the lubricant viscosity must be
adjusted to compensate for the change.
the following approximation equation gives an estimate of what
the final outcome should be.
u = ∏* d * nwhereu = surface speedd = bore diameter, metersn = shaft speed, revolutions per second∏ = 3.1415
The first step is to estimate the machine’s surface speed
Second step -estimate the machine’s unit surface pressure.

This is intended only to be a rough approximation for the sake of illustrating the principles behind lubricant selection.Please consult with a lubricationengineering professional prior toattempting to make any change in the lubricant selection for any actual operating machines
Note:
Once known these values
can be plotted on a table for
a rough estimate of
minimum allowable viscosity
Other considerations
The final lubricant type decision
should include considerations
for oxidation stability, corrosion
protection, wear protection,
water and air separation
properties, etc.

Task 3 - Gears Lubrication
• Proper Lubrication with timely addition / replacement plays vital role in maintaining the gear boxes with efficiency and increasing its working life.
• Oil level should be checked in all the gear boxes oil indicators / dip sticks.
• Oil level should be in between the minimum and maximum limits of the dip stick (or indicator).
• Testing of the lubricating oils used to be carried out periodically. The following tests are to be done…
1. Dirt contamination
2. Moisture
3. Volatile materials (Benzene, kerosene, spirit etc,)
4. Viscosity
5. Acidity
6. Alkalinity due to soda (Na2 Co3) etc.,

• Worm gears are used to transmit power
& motion between shafts at right angles
• Worm gears normally consist of a small
diameter steel gear worm and a larger
diameter bronze wheel
• Because of the high degree of sliding (5-
20%), the efficiency of worm gears is
lower than for spur or helical units – ~

Benefits in Using Synthetic Gear Oils
Mineral-based gear oils typically have a finite performance life
determined by temperatures (low and high), loads, ambient
conditions
• Synthetic gear oils typically provide the following benefits
over mineral oils:
– Improved oxidative & thermal stability
– Improved viscosity-temperature behavior
– Extension of oil change intervals
– Reduced energy consumption
– Improved gear efficiency
