This paper is aimed to develop the circuit of a coil-type oil sensor packaged to the automotive engine oil monitoring the deterioration in the driving condition and let a driver notify the optimized time for the exchange of engine oil. By applying the principle which the deterioration of automotive engine oil can be expressed to the dielectric constant, the capacitance bridge circuit and the integrator circuit are designed and packaged to a coil-typed engine oil. In this study. the range of operating temperature of engine oil is experimentally recommended within 55$^{\circ}C$ for the stability of a sensor designed. It is concluded that the characteristics of output voltage converted from the dielectric constant are linearly distributed.

To maintain thereasonable temperature in the engines is very important to keep the steady combustion state of engine and to prevent increasing of oil consumption , deteriorating of lubricant, shortening of the life time of engine and decreasing of material strength. The method of energy balance for divided elements of radiator and engine-oil cooler is considered to analyse the performance of radiator and engine-oil cooler. The data obtained by engine test and vehicle cooling tunnel test are applied to program for calculation of radiator outlet temperature. As a result, data obtained by numerical analysis agree well with those by experiments. And thus, it is concluded that this simulation program is available in developing the cooling system for a new car.

When engine oil is used under severe running condition, the Lubricational characteristics is very important. I have studied the Lubricational characteristics with Compound Additives of engine oil for the Falex wear test machine. Adding detergent (Ca-phenate) to engine oil, the seizure is more improved than in case of non-adding, and adding Zn-DTP (Zinc dialkyl dithio phosphate), the extreme pressure property is excellent at the high load. But when the PTFE (Polytetra Fluoro Ethylene) and MoS$_{2}$ (Molybdenum disulfide) are added, the temperature characteristics and the anti-wear property become excellent because the stability can be maintained in a high temperature. The result are as follows, it can be improved that when the compound of the Ca-phenate and Zn-DTP, MoS$_{2}$, PTFE, etc. was added to engine oil, the lubrication characteristics become better. It is argued that it is improved because of excellence of the anti-wear, the extreame pressure properties and the heat stability.

Crank pin temperatures were measured and analyzed to find out practical method which can predict the engine bearing reliability. The measuring points were determined to be near the MOFT region and far from that by theoretical calculation. The effect of engine running condition, oil temperature, the change of oil circuit into bearing and crankshaft endplay on crank pin temperature were experimentally tested. The result obtained was as following. The crank pin temperature was dependent on oil film thickness and directly influenced by the change of test condition. Also, the length of the crankshaft endplay was confirmed to be critical to connecting rod bearing failure. In conclusion, we found that the measurement method of crank pin temperature can be used for predicting the engine bearing reliability.

The International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) GF-3 passenger car engine oil specification has been introduced commercially in July 2001. The new specification oil provides superior performance in terms of fuel economy, control of high temperature deposits, and oil consumption. These enhanced performances of GF-3 engine oil need high quality base oil as well as a better additive system. In this paper, the effect of base oil on various performances of ILSAC GF-3 engine oil was investigated. From the GF-3 sequence engine tests, Group III base oil shows better performance in fuel economy retention, oxidation and varnish control than combination of group III and group II or group III and group 1.

The purpose of this study is to develop the proto type sensor installed inside an oil filter in order to detect oil deterioration level. The sensor is made up with two concentric cylinders with constant gap in between and a filter element inside the central area. The size will be designed as similar as real oil filters. The sensor will be tested on a test rig, which is circulating engine oil, with the same size of an oil filter adapting housing as real engines'. It will be measured the capacitance of a sample engine oil, then be able to be gotten the dielectric constant. The changes in the dielectric constant could be correlated with the engine oil deterioration level if the sensor development would be completed. In this paper, it will be shown the test results carrying out under variable temperature conditions at atmosphere pressure.

A Parametric study based on a computer analysis of the lubrication system of a four-cylinder gasoline engine is illustrated. Through the parametric study, the effects of various aeration levels on the change of oil flow rate and pressure are investigated. Also, at high oil temperature and low engine speed, the effect of oil aeration level on oil flow characteristics in lubrication system is investigated. The illustrated results may give to designers the guide lines of oil aeration level for the safe design of engine lubrication systems in terms of minimum pressure at crank oil bore.

Recently, the population of vehicles using LPG as fuel has been increasing due to relatively low fuel price and low tax. Although gasoline engine oils we usually used to lubricate LPG engines, some troubles such as oil thickening and TBN depletion were found in them under severe operating condition. In order to investigate the deterioration mechanism of lubricants in LPG engine, field trials were performed. The results from the field trials showed that the deterioration of oils in LPG engine is different from that in normal gasoline engine. LPG engine oil was deteriorated mainly through oxidation and nitration at high temperature rather than contamination of fuel combustion products.

This paper describes evaluation of oxidation stability for diesel engine oils by Hot-tube oxidation tester at high temperature. Evaluation was rated by visual inspection of lacquer in capillary glass tube and TAN determination of used oil. Air, NO$_2$-air and SO$_2$-air mixed gases were used as oxidizing gas. One oil which has low oxidation stability is selected and reformulated by addition of some additives such as antioxidant, detergent and disperant to improve oxidation stability. As a results of reformulation, antioxidant and detergent was effective for improvement of high temperture oxidation stability on diesel engine oil.

The performance and exhaust emissions of a diesel engine using light oil, heated, rice-bran oil , heated rice-bran oil treated with ultrasonic wave, used frying oil, use frying oil treated with ultrasonic wave, used frying oil, used frying oil treated with ultrasonic wave, methyl esters of rice-bran oil and used frying oil have been compared. All the fuels performed satisfactorily in a precombustion chamber-type diesel engine without injection pump recalibration or any engine modification at the range of engine speed from 1600 to 2800 rpm at its full load during a sort period , with the rice-bran oil and rice-bran oil treated with ultrasonic wave requiring somewhat preheating when ambient temperature was below 15$^{\circ}C$. General performance and emission characteristics of light oil and bio-oils were comparable , with the bio-oil based fuels giving very low SO$_2$ and lower smoke readings.
