Lubrication System

The document discusses the functions of lubricating oil in an engine. It lists the functions as reducing friction, absorbing and dissipating heat, sealing between parts, cushioning impact forces, cleaning the engine, and protecting against corrosion. It then elaborates on each function and discusses additional lubrication topics like flash point, fire point, cloud point, and pour point. It also lists common lubrication systems and oil filtration methods. Finally, it explains that an oil dilution system provides thinner oil during engine start up for faster lubrication.

ASSIGNMENT 5

1.
a. List down the function of lubricating oil.

• TO REDUCE FRICTION BETWEEN MOVING PARTS


• ABSORB AND DISSIPATES HEAT
• SEALS BETWEEN PARTS
• CUSHIONING IMPACT FORCE OF COMBUSTION
• CLEANS ENGINE
• PROTECT AGAINST CORROSION

b. Elaborate each of listed function above.

1. OIL FLIM SEPERATES THESE SURFACE AND MINIMISED WEAR

2. HEATED OIL FLOW INTO OIL COOLER AND AFTER IT IS COOL, FLOW BACK TO THE
ENGINE TO COOLED THE ENGINE.

3. SEAL ANY AIR LEAKS BETWEEN CYLINDER WALL AND PISTON RING

4. REDUCE IMPACT FORCE BETWEEN CRANKSHAFT AND ITS CONNECTING RODS

5. SLUDGE AND ALL IMPURITIES SUSPENDED IN THE OIL ARE CARRIED TO A FILTER,
TRAPPED AND REMOVED LATER.

6. OIL ACTS AS BARRIERS, PREVENTING OXYGEN & MOISTURE FROM ENTERING THE
PARENT METAL.

1
2. Elaborate;
a. Flash point.

• THE TEMPERATURE AT WHICH IT BEGINS TO EMIT IGNITABLE


VAPOURS
c. Fire point.
• FIRE POINT IS REACH WHERE VAPOURS SUPPORT A FLAME
d. Cloud point.
• TEMPERATURE AT WHICH THE SEPARATION OF PARAFFIN WAX AND
OTHER SOLIDS NORMALLY HELD IN SOLUTION BEGIN TO SOLIDIFY AND
SEPARATE INTO TINY CRYSTALS
e. Pour point.
THE LOWEST TEMPERATURE AT WHICH THE OIL CAN OR BE POURED

3.
a. List down 4 method for distributing oil inside engine.

• PRESSURE
• SPLASH LUBRICATION
• SPRAY LUBRICATIOM
• COMBINATION SYSTEM

b. List down 2 typical lubrication system.

• Oil System for Wet-Sump Engine


• Oil System for Dry-Sump Engine
4.
a. List down 4 method for filtration system.

• DEPTH FILTRATION
• SEMI-DEPTH FILTRATION
• SURFACE FILTRATION
• EDGE FILTRATION

2
b. Explain oil dilution system.

The purpose of the oil dilution system is to provide thinner oil during engine start.
This allows faster lubrication of engine components. Oil dilution is accomplished by pumping
a small amount of fuel into the oil
