Review on Causes of oil consumption
Keywords:
ring pack, oil grade, wear, oil consumption, diesel engineAbstract
The wear patents of rings and grooves of a diesel engine where analyzed by using a ring dynamics and ringpack oil film thickness model. The calculation focused primarily on the contact pressure distribution on the ring side and
grooves as well as on the contact location on the ring surfaces. Up-scraping of the top ring was studied by considering
ring dynamic twist and piston tilt. On the other hand various types of oil are using in diesel engine for providing
lubrication, cooling, prevent corrosion and etc. Engine lubrication oil contains many compositions by changing this
composition better lubrication oil can be used in diesel engine. These work shows providing practical guidance to
optimizing the ring pack and oil grade to control wear and reduce oil consumption.
