Studies of Oil Related Tribological Failures of Automotive Engines

자동차 엔진에서 윤활유 관련 트라이볼로지 고장 사례 연구

This paper presents case studies on the oil related failures in automotive engines. In this study, engine oils play an important roles as a friction reducing matehals and should be supplied to a tribological machine elements sufficiently. The starvation or depletion of a lubricant may seriously produce the tribological failures on the rubbing parts of the engine.
