Q

One of the most important properties of an oil is viscosity, which is a measure of an oil’s resistance to flow. An oil that flows slowly is Viscous, or has a high viscosíty. On the other hand, oil that flows freely has a low viscosity. most inportant properties of an oil is viscosity, which is a measure of an oil’s resistance to flow.

Q

temperature at which paraffin wax and other solids normally held in a solution of oil begin to solidify and separate into tíny crystals.

A

Cloud Point

20
Q

represents the lowest temperature at which the oil can flow or oil property which determines a given oil’s ability to lubricate at Low operating tenperatures.

A

Pour Point

21
Q

An oil’s flash point is the temperature at which it begins to enit ignitable vapors. As temperature increases beyond the flash point, the oil’s fire point is reached and sufficient pors are enitted to support a flame. A typical lubricating oil has a fire point approxímately 50 to 6o°C higher than the fash point.

A

Flash Point and Fire Point

22
Q

a given amount of oil is place in stainless steel receptacle and heated to a controlled temperature until it evaporates.

A

Carbon residue test.

23
Q

is an extension ofa carbon residue test requires the carbon residue to be burned until only ash remains. The amount of ash remaining is then expressed as a percentage by weight of the carbon residue.

A

Ash test

24
Q

a fixed nozzle that provides a relatively consistent oil flow to the main bearings at all engine speeds.

A

Oil jets

25
Q

to minimize the effect of the dynamic loads transmitted from the rotating assembly to the bearing housings, squeze film type bearings are sed

A

Bearings

26
Q

is to vent excessive pressure in the bearing chambers so the pressure differential between the bearing chambers and the lubrication system is maintained and the oil jets maintain the proper spray pattern

A

Vent system

27
Q

prevents supply oil from seeping through oil pump elements and high-pressure Lines after shutdown. oil could accumulate in the accessory gearbox, compressor rear housing, and conbustíon chamber.

A

Q

one of the funtion of the oil is to cool the engine

A

Q

attract and hold any ferrous metal particles. First, any metal articles that are attracted to the detector are prevented fron circulating in the engine and causing additional wear. Second, the collection of metal particles on a chip detector provide aluable information when troubles shooting engine problems

A

Magnetic chip detector

31
Q
  • type of detector is unique because it can discriminate between Small wear-particles, which are considered nonfailure related, and Larger particles, which can be an indication of impending failure
A

A

oil pressure gauge

33
Q

The reason for this is that oil viscosity varies enough among commonly used oils to produce several hundred grades when using Saybolt values

A

Engine oil grading system

34
Q

-straight mineral oil
-ashless dispersant oil
-multi-viscosity oil
-synthetic oils

35
Q

(MIL-L-6082E)that has no additives many years, the principle type of oil used in aircraft. Although straight mineral oil is an effective lubricant, it does have some linitations.

A

Straight mineral oil

36
Q

The most conmonly used oil in reciprocating engines is ashless- dispersant, or AD Dil that conforms to MIL-L-22851ID. It does not have the carbon forming restrictions of straight mineral oil nor does it forn ash deposits like detergent oils.

A

Ashless-Dispersant Oil

37
Q

they provide adequate lubrication over a wider temperature range. This allows multi-viscosity oil to flow more quickly in cold weather and keep from thinning in hot weather.

A

Multi viscosity oil

38
Q

have multi-viscosity properties due to their chemical composition and are similar to automotive grades SAE-5 to SAE-2O. They are a blend of chemical additives and certain DÍesters, which are synthesízed extracts of mineral, vegetable, and aninal oils.

A

Synthetic oils

39
Q

(hypoid lubricants)- are specially formulated to provide protectíon under high loads. A hypoid lubricant contains additives that bond to metal surfaces to reduce friction under high pressures or high rubbing velocities

A

Extreme pressure lubricants

40
Q

The Lubrication Systems on a turbine engine supplies oil to moving parts within the engine which are subjected to friction and heating. ln most cases, pressure lubrication is used to Lubricate all the necessary components within a turbine engine.

45
Q

most turbine oil is compatible with other oils that meet the same military specifications.

A

46
Q

essntial for the life of egines with carbon seals that Lubricant properties prevent wear of the carbon at the carbon seal face.

A

47
Q

although the dry-sump systems use an oil tank that contains most of the oil supply, a small sunp is sually lncluded on the engine to hold a small supply of oil

A
