Purpose of Lubrication
 Reduce the frictional resistance
Protect the engine against wear.
Serve as a cooling agent by picking up
heat.
Remove all impurities from the
lubricated region.
Form a seal between piston rings and
the cylinder walls to prevent blowby.

The wet sump system is employed in relatively
small engines, such as automobile engines,
While the dry sump system is used in large
stationary, marine and aircraft engines.
Mist Lubrication Systems
In two-stroke engines, the charge is compressed
in the crankcase, and as such it is not suitable to
have the lubricating oil in the sump.
Therefore, such engines are lubricated by adding 3
% to 6 % oil in the fuel tank itself.
The oil and fuel mixture is inducted through the
carburetor.
The fuel gets vaporized and the oil, in the form of
mist, goes into the cylinder through the crankcase.
The main advantage with this system lies in the
simplicity and low cost as the system does not
require any oil pump, filter etc.

WET SUMP LUBRICATION SYSTEMS

In the wet sump system, the bottom of the
crankcase contains an oil sump (or pan) that
serves as the oil supply reservoir.

Properties of Lubricating Oil
❖The oil used in an engine must serve as
a lubricant, a coolant and an agent for
removing impurities.
❖It must be able to withstand high
temperatures without breaking down. The
oil must operate over a good range of
temperature.
❖They must not oxidize on the chamber
walls, piston crown or at the piston
rings.
Oil have high strength to

PROPERTIES OF LUBRICATING OIL
11
(a)Viscosity: The lubricating oil
should have the correct viscosity
so that it flows easily to all the
moving parts.
❖If oil viscosity is too high, more
work is required to pump it and
to shear it between the moving
parts. This results in greater
friction work, reduced brake
work and hence reduced power
output.
❖Viscosity is
dependent on
increasing with
temperature.

❖The fuel consumption may
increase by as much as 15 %.

RATING OF LUBRICATING OIL – VISCOSITY INDEX
❖When certain polymers are added to oil, the
temperature dependency of oil viscosity is reduced.
These oils have low viscosity grades when they are
cold and higher as they become hot.
❖As for example, SAE 10W-30
means that the oil has a grade 10
when it is cold (W stands for winter)
and 30 when it is hot.
❖Commonly used oils in this
category are:
SAE 5W-20 SAE 10W
-40
SAE 5W-30 SAE 10W
-50
SAE 5W-40 SAE 15W
-40
SAE 5W-50 SAE 15W
-50
SAE 10W
-30 SAE 20W-50
Rating of Lubricating Oil
(b)Specific Gravity: This property is of little
importance except as an indicator of weight
and volume. The specific gravity of oil varies
from 0.85 to 0.96.
(c)Pour Point: It indicates the temperature
below which the lubricating oil loses its fluidity
and will not flow or circulate in the system. This
characteristics of the oil is important at low
temperature.

lubricating oil should have low
Rating of Lubricating Oil
(d)Oxidation Stability: Oxidation stability of an
oil is its resistance to oxidation. Due to
oxidation, oil forms deposits on the piston
rings, and thereby loses its lubricating
property. Some inhibitors are used to
counteract these tendencies.
(e) Acidity and Neutralization Number:
Th
neutralization number is a measure eofaacciiddiitcy

alkaline contents of oil.(TAN NumbeTr)he
(f) Oiliness: Oiliness is responsible for the
boundary layer of molecules that can adhere or
cling to a metal surface and provide lubrication
after most of the oil gets displaced or squeezed 15
out.

• Examples of vegetable lubricants are:
– Castor oil, Olive oil, Cottonseed oil
• Animal and vegetable oils have a lower
coefficient of friction than most mineral oils
but they rapidly wear away steel.

• These lubricants are used to a large extent
in the lubrication of aircraft internal
combustion engines.
• There are three

Conclusions
22
In order to minimize friction between the
moving parts and hence wear, lubrication
system in an engine plays a significant
role. The lubrication system is designed to
deliver clean oil at the correct temperature
and pressure to every part of
the engine. Lubricatin oil can be
supplied to g the various engine
components by a splash system or by a
pressurized system or a by a combination
of both. In two-stroke engines, oil is mixed
with the fuel itself.
