However, the engine lubrication system mainly uses liquid lubricants. Working principle The engine lubrication system is to distribute oil to the moving parts to reduce friction between surfaces.

From the archives: A lack of lubrication is the most common cause of engine component failure, so consider these factors with your oiling system.

The lubrication and cooling systems are essential for keeping the internal combustion engine running smoothly. The lubrication system uses oil to reduce friction between the engine's moving parts; ...

This work represents an advance in system-level modeling of the engine lubrication system over the current state of the art of one-dimensional models. The model was applied to a 16 cylinder, ...

There is also a sound understanding of how lubrication actually works in engines; it revolves around the establishment of an ...

Engine lubrication systems in vintage vehicles were less sophisticated than current designs. Motor oil becomes viscous in cold temperatures, flowing slowly through engine passages.

One particularly unsettling issue that may occur if there's a problem with your vehicle's fuel or engine lubrication systems is a gas smell coming from your engine oil.

Metal additive manufacturing is being applied to the production of oil lubrication system parts for the GE F110 engine, which powers the Air Force’s F-16 jet fighter.

"ZPI's EPOD is the most promising solution we've seen for loss of lubrication scenarios," said the aerospace OEM's Program Manager. "This technology speaks for itself. Based on the results of the ...
