This paper includes the laboratory and experimental methodology used to compare the effect of using mineral, semi-synthetic, and synthetic engine oil on the parts wear of a four-stroke gasoline internal composition engine (ICE). Three test platforms included three engines with identical, technical, and design specifications. They were operated under the same investment, ambient, and climatic conditions. The first engine was equipped with synthetic oil, the second with semi-synthetic oil, and the third with mineral engine oil. All of them had (SAE10W40 API: SL/CF). All test platforms were operated through three stages with variable loads for up to 1,500 operating hours (hr). Oil drain intervals (ODI) were every 100 operating hours. Used oil samples were taken to analyze the physical and chemical characteristics of viscosity, total base number TBN, flash point, metals wear Irion (Fe), copper (Cu), chromium (Cr), and wear index (WI) to investigate the effect of all oils on the wear of engine parts and by comparing the changes in wear. The used oil analysis (UOA) results were drawn that showed the superiority of the use of synthetic oil over semi-synthetic and mineral. It prolonged the technical engine’s lifetime.

Automobile engines require lubrication to lessen the impact of friction due to the high levels of wear and frictional heat generated by the sliding parts. Wear and friction will cause engine parts to endure for less time, be less reliable, and require more maintenance. Diesel fuel can potentially be replaced with biodiesel among other fuels. Diesel engines have a serious problem with equipment that is lubricated by the fuel itself. This study’s goal is to assess the influence of bio-additives on the diesel fuel tribological behavior and energy balance during the car’s idle running, acceleration, constant speed, and braking. Lubricity issues with reformulated diesel and lubricity test procedures are explained. The relationship between tribology and bio-additives is also briefly illustrated. According to the literature, adding bio-additives to fuel boosts its lubricity. Biodiesel has long been considered an additive with excellent lubricant properties. Even in small amounts, adding biodiesel to diesel fuel can increase its lubricity without the need for conventional lubricity additives. This is especially true for diesel fuel with ultralow sulfur. Diesel fuel characteristics determine the precise blending percentage needed to provide the proper lubricity of maximum 520 μm testing wear scars with a high-frequency reciprocating rig (HFRR), although 2% biodiesel nearly invariably imparts adequate lubricity to biodiesel blends. Tall oil fatty acid (TOFA) was one of the bio-additives investigated by HFRR. When the additive concentration was raised from 0 to 500 g/g, the wear scar diameter (WSD) of nonadditive diesel fuel was lowered by 60.3%, from 630 to 250 μm, and the coefficient of friction (COF) was lowered by 95.7%, from 0.47 to 0.02.

The subject of modeling and predicting roughness parameters in hard machining has been discussed in many literature sources. However, most of these sources cover only the amplitude parameters such as Ra and Rz, leaving it unexplored to the right extent compared to its importance the roughness parameter bearing ratio curve (the Abbott–Firestone curve) which is essential in understanding the actual contact area of mating surfaces. To bridge this gap, this research has developed a mathematical model using the design of experiments method through investigation of the effect of process parameters in hard turning of Steel C55 (DIN) with mixed ceramics MC2 (Al2O3 + TiC). The model predicts the bearing ratio curve parameter Rmr (50% Rz), statistically processed using CADEX and Matlab. The research includes the ANOVA as a complementary tool in validating the generated mathematical model. The research analyzes the effects of material properties, cutting forces, and tool geometry as factors that affect the machining process. Additionally, it emphasizes the robustness of hard turning in consistently producing waviness patterns. Overall, this research provides valuable insights into the predictable effects of parameters on machined surfaces, which contributes to a better understanding of surface finish in metalworking.

This work is aimed at obtaining gradient coating of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) by detonation spraying. The influence of technological parameters of spraying on the formation of structure, phase composition. mechanical, and tribological characteristics of Al2O3 coatings have been investigated. It was determined that coatings obtained from the same raw powder materials under different technological conditions show different structural and phase characteristics. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that when the barrel is filled with gas mixture by 56%, the coating with the main phase α-Al2O3 is formed, and when the barrel is filled with gas mixture by 63%, the coating with the main phase γ-Al2O3, which is relatively more ductile than α-Al2O3, is formed. It is determined that the α-Al2O3 formed mainly on the surface provides good wear resistance. The bottom layer composed of γ-Al2O3 phase, which is relatively more ductile than α-Al2O3, provides good adhesion of the coating to the substrate. Tribological study showed that the coating obtained at 56% of filling shows good wear resistance compared to other samples. At 63% of filling the results of scratch test showed good adhesive strength. By varying the technological mode of detonation sputtering (56%, 53%, and 63%), Al2O3 coating with gradient structure was obtained, in which γ-Al2O3 smoothly transitions to α-Al2O3 from the substrate to the surface. The hardness of the coatings was found to increase smoothly from substrate to surface (12.4–14.2 GPa).

This paper investigates the broaching process of phosphor-bronze (C54400) under different cutting conditions, and the influential factors on cutting force and surface quality are studied. The simulated cutting force implementing the force model based on the energy components also agrees with the results of experiments. In the first part, different cutting velocities of VC = 5, 10, 15, and 20 m/min are studied. In the second part, harmonic vibrations in the form of a sine wave with precise amplitude (A = 1 m/min) and frequencies (F = 55, 65, 85, and 95 Hz) are added in the direction of the cutting velocity. The results revealed that an increase in the cutting velocity from 5 to 20 m/min results in a 40% enhancement in surface quality and a 20% decrease in the cutting force. Additionally, harmonic vibrations of higher frequencies can also contribute to a 35% higher surface quality and a 20% lower cutting force. This study will ultimately improve productivity in industries where broaching is considered the main manufacturing approach, such as automotive and aerospace, in which precision and accuracy are of paramount importance.

In this work, the influence of spray parameters on the formation of the microstructure, phase composition, and the tribological properties of detonation flame sprayed coatings was studied. It was determined that the chemical composition of Cr3C2-NiCr coatings during detonation spraying depends on the degree of filling the barrel with an explosive gas mixture. The degree of filling the barrel with an explosive gas mixture at 73% leads to a decrease in the content of carbide phases, and at 57% filling of the barrel, an increase in carbide phases is observed. It is established that the decrease of the filling degree leads to the increase of hardness and wear resistance of the Cr3C2-NiCr coatings since the hardness and wear resistance of the coating material deposited at 57% is higher than at 65% and 73%; this is due to the increase in the carbide phase Cr3C2. Detonation flame sprayed Cr3C2-NiCr gradient coatings have been developed in this study, which is carried out by varying the spray parameters. It was found that in the gradient coating, Cr3C2-NiCr carbide phases gradually increase from the depth to the surface. The obtained gradient coating closer to the substrate consists of the CrNi3 phase, while the coating surface consists of CrNi3 and Cr3C2 phases.

In this study, the conventional acid-clay method was used to evaluate its potential for recycling waste crankcase lubricating oil (WCLO). The results showed that the acid-clay method was effective in re-refining the WCLO and returning the oil to a quality comparable to oils produced from fresh lube oil stocks. This method has been reported to account for around 90% of the global waste crankcase lubricating oil treatment and is considered to be an inexpensive process. The results revealed that the acid-clay method improved the viscosity of the oil at 40°C from 104 cSt to 105.6 cSt. The flash point of the oil was also increased from 192°C in the WCLO to 204°C in the re-refined crankcase lubricating oil (RCLO). The water content reduced from 0.01% in the WCLO to 0% in the RCLO, indicating the effectiveness of the acid-clay method in removing water traces from the WCLO. Additionally, the contaminants present in the WCLO were reduced drastically, with iron and aluminum content reduced from 23.0% and 21.0% to 0.0% and 0.0%, respectively. The fuel ingress in the WCLO reduced from 4.0% to 1.0%. However, it was observed that the acid-clay method did not significantly impact the viscosity index, TBN, and density of the oil. The re-refined base oil produced by the acid-clay method can be fortified with appropriate additives and reused in vehicles, reducing environmental pollution, depleting fossil resources, and saving the country’s foreign exchange used in importing fresh lubricating oil.

Self-organization mechanisms of metastable dissipative structures during friction depending on base and oil functional additives for hypoid gears are considered. Research was conducted on a software-hardware complex with simulation of gears’ operation in rolling with slipping conditions in start-stop mode. Indicators of formation of wear-resistant dissipative structures include the following: improvement of antifriction characteristics, lubricant boundary layers’ formation, contact surfaces’ strengthening, and formation of heterogeneous deformation microrelief with a fine-grained structure. The formation of chemically modified boundary layers on 90% of the contact area of tribo-coupling elements ensures an increase in the wear resistance of leading and lagging surfaces by 2 and 1.4 times, respectively. The sclerometry method was used to establish that the formation of dissipative structures when lubricating tribo-coupling elements with various transmission oils can reduce deformation processes in metal near-surface layers by 23%. Highly viscous flavored lubricant with distillate oil and additive composition ensures wear-resistant dissipative structures with active components, including oxygen, sulfur, and phosphorus.

New lubricants based on vegetable oil were developed in this study. Different blends of canola oil mixed with fully synthetic two stock engine oils were developed (0, 20%, 40%, 60%, and 80% of synthetic oil). The viscosity of the prepared blends was determined at different temperatures (20°C–80°C). Tribological experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of the newly developed oil on the wear characteristics of mild steel material compared with stainless steel when subjected to adhesive wear loading. The weight loss (WL) and the specific wear rate (SWR) of the mild steel using each of the prepared lubricants were determined. Scanning electron microscopy was used to examine the worn surface of the mild steel. The results revealed that pure canola oil as a lubricant performed competitively against a blend of 80% synthetic and 20% canola oils. The viscosity of the canola oil and its various blends with synthetic oil are controlled by the environmental temperature since an increased temperature reduces the viscosity. Also, the experimental results revealed that operating parameters play the main role in controlling the wear behavior of mild steel since increasing the sliding distances increases the weight loss. The specific wear rate exhibited a steady state after about 5 km sliding distance, and different blends influenced the applied loads and velocity differently. The mixing ratio of canola and syntactic oil was not particularly significant since the pure canola oil exhibited competitive wear performance compared with the blends. However, an intermediate mixing ratio (40%–60% synthetic oil mixed with 60%–40% canola) can produce a slightly low specific wear rate among other things.

The specific wear rate exhibited a steady state after about 5 km sliding distance, and different blends influenced the applied loads and velocity differently. The mixing ratio of canola and syntactic oil was not particularly significant since the pure canola oil exhibited competitive wear performance compared with the blends. However, an intermediate mixing ratio (40%–60% synthetic oil mixed with 60%–40% canola) can produce a slightly low specific wear rate among other things.","PeriodicalId":44668,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Tribology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2021-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47829605","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
The tribological behavior of Ni-based WC-Co coatings is analyzed. The coatings were deposited on gray cast iron substrates in a spray and fuse process using SuperJet Eutalloy deposition equipment, varying the oxygen flow conditions in the flame. The crystallographic structure of the coatings was characterized via the X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. The microhardness was measured on the surface and in cross sections of the coatings by means of a Knoop microhardness tester. The topography and the morphological characteristics of the coatings and the tribo-surfaces were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and confocal microscopy, while the chemical composition was measured by means of energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS). The tribological behavior of the coatings was examined via a cohesion-adhesion scratch test, using cross sections of the coatings. Furthermore, two wear tests were carried out, using the pin-on-disk method under ASTM G99 standard and an ASTM standard G65 sand/rubber wheel abrasion wear test. The wear of the coatings showed a close relationship to the porosity in the metal matrix; since then, in the abrasive wear test, a high porosity is related with lower hardness in the coatings; likewise, a low hardness is related with a high wear.
