The document provides an overview of lubrication fundamentals including tribology, lubrication functions, lubrication films and regimes, base oils, additives, greases, lubricant failures, and oil analysis basics. It discusses topics such as how lubricants are formulated using base oils and additives, common lubricant types, mineral and synthetic base oil properties, grease consistency, grease thickeners, and ways that lubricants can fail through contamination, oxidation, thermal degradation, and additive depletion.
Lubrication is one of the main preventative maintenance activities.
Lubricants have a wide range of properties that impact their physical and chemical properties Knowing about these properties is important in determining which lubricant is best for which situation.
Oil analysis identifies early signs of contamination, fluid degradation and abnormal wear before they cause costly and permanent damage to equipment.
One of the most important things an operator can do for his machinery is to make sure it is properly lubricated. So what is a lubricant and how does it affect operations when used properly? In this webinar we will answer these questions and more by covering the fundamentals of lubrication. During this webinar we will discuss how a lubricant works to remove friction, the physical and chemical properties of the lubricant, and the many functions of a lubricant.

This presentation will explain the importance of used oil analysis. If you want to cut the cost, don't try to use cheap product but try to extend premium lubricant by monitoring with lubricant analysis.
The oil analysis report is a vital tool for a smooth running operation. Going deeper than the report summaries and knowing how to analyze the oil analysis report can help prevent equipment breakdown and unnecessary equipment teardowns. During this educational webinar you will learn from analyst, Dwon Ruffin, his process for reviewing and analyzing oil analysis reports. Dwon will review some of the most common tests run on industrial equipment and teach you how to read test reports. He will also walk you through marginal and critical reports and teach you how to decipher various alarms. You will walk away with an improved knowledge of oil analysis report interpretation.

Lubricants
From the very beginning the machine age has depended on lubrication to keep the gears, shafts and wheels of progress turning. Over the years in agriculture, industry, construction, transportation on the roads and off lubricants have played a critical role in getting the job done and today ever more sophisticated vehicles and machines, demand ever more sophisticated lubrication products.
Before the coming of the today different varieties of lubricants the whale oil was historically famous and was used up to the latter part of the 20th century as a friction modifier additive for automatic transmission fluid.
In today’s industrial sectors, Engines, transmissions ,axles, hydraulic systems, gear assemblies and metal working operations need specially formulated lubricants to protect critical components, provide reliable operation, lower maintenance costs, decrease downtime and increase equipment life.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Sachpazis:Terzaghi Bearing Capacity Estimation in simple terms with Calculati...Dr.Costas Sachpazis
Terzaghi's soil bearing capacity theory, developed by Karl Terzaghi, is a fundamental principle in geotechnical engineering used to determine the bearing capacity of shallow foundations. This theory provides a method to calculate the ultimate bearing capacity of soil, which is the maximum load per unit area that the soil can support without undergoing shear failure. The Calculation HTML Code included.

4. Tribology
Tribology: A study of friction, wear and lubrication.
• Friction: the resistance force between two bodies
where one body moves to the surface of the other.
• Wear: rubbing away of the material surface.
• Abrasive wear (cutting wear): wear due to
embedded of hard material into soft surface.
• Adhesive wear (Galling or scuffing): wear
due to sliding surfaces contact of one into another.
• Fatigue wear: wear due to cyclic loading of a
surface.
• Lubrication: application of some oily or greasy
substance in order to minimize friction.
According to tribologist Ernest Rabinowicz (MIT)

35. Viscosity Index
Viscosity index: measure of a fluid’s viscosity changes with temperature. The
higher viscosity index, the smaller the relative change in viscosity with
temperature.
Viscosity index is determined experimentally by taking its viscosity at 40 ◦C and 100 ◦C .

• Lower friction and energy consumption.
• Lower maintenance cost.
Disadvantages:
• Viscosity limitation.
• Risk of injectors clogging.
Oil Application Methods
Mechanism
Oil is lifted by vacuum generated by high air velocity
through Venturi, oil droplets then passes through
piping to target machine surface being lubricated.
52. Continuous Forced Oil Circulation Oil Application Methods
The lubricant is pumped to parts to be lubricated and returned to reservoir by
gravity passed through filters and coolers.

• Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a
versatile tool used to detect common contaminants,
lube degradation byproducts and additives within
lubricating oils
• FTIIR is a rapid way to monitor multiple oil
parameters.
• This test method is relatively quick to perform and is
capable of simultaneously detecting multiple

64. Rotating Pressure Vessel Oxidation Test
• The Rotating Pressure Vessel Oxidation Test
(RPVOT) is a test that determines the
oxidation stability of an oil.
• The test is very expensive to perform
routinely and is usually performed annually
on very large oil reservoirs such as a steam
turbine where volumes exceed 10,000 gallons
Applications
Mainly used for lubricants with antioxidant
additive packages to help monitor fluid health
and provide an estimate of remaining life.
