LESSON THIRTEEN
LUBRICATING OIL SYSTEM
1. PRIMARY PURPOSE OF LUBRICATION
To keep a clean layer of lubricating oil film / luboil film between the contacting
surfaces of the running parts / moving components in order to prevent
friction, heat & metal-to-metal wear / abrasive wear.

2. SECONDARY PURPOSE OF LUBRICATION
2.1 COOLING
In passing through the engine, part of the heat is absorbed / picked up
by the circulating oil. Therefore, it is made to pass through the cooler before
being recirculated.

2.3 CLEANING
 Washing away of wear detritus due to surface rubbing / friction.
Therefore, the oil is filtered and centrifuged.
 Oil also cleanses hot moving parts from carbonaceous deposits.
2.4 SEALING
This is the case with the piston & liner where the oil provides
a gas seal sa well as lubrication.

2.5 PREVENTION FROM CORROSION
 Hot corrosion is caused by vanadium
 Cold corrosion is caused by sulphur

3. REQUIREMENTS FOR A TROUBLE-FREE ENGINE OPERATION
3.1 The type of lubricating oil recomended by the manufacturer must
be used.
3.2 The lubricant to be supplied in proper qantities & at the right
temperature.
3.3 Provisions must be made to remove any impurities entering the
system.

5.2 A CIRCULATING SYSTEM ( lubricating the running gear & cooling
the piston )
6. DESCRIPTION OF A LUBRICATION PROCEDURE
 L.O. pressure pumps draw the oil from the drain tank / lub oil tank / pan
through the suction strainers. The drain tank is fitted with a level gauge.
 Pumps discharge oil through fine filters to the cooler ( the discharge
pressure ensures that there will be no leakage of salt water into the oil in
the event of faulty cooler.)
 L.O. thermostatic valve, mounted on the cooler, regulates the oil
temperature flow of either the lubricating oil or the cooling water.
 Regulating valves control the oil distribution and its pressure in all
moving components.
 Pressure gauges are fitted before and after the filter(s)
 The system is fitted with a number of alarms: pressure loss alarm, oil
level alarm in drain tank, temperature alarm, pressure relief valves ( usualy
mounted at pump discharge.)
 Oil should be permanently purified at sea. It may be also heated to
assist purification.
