Análise do funcionamento dos motores de combustão interna de acordo com os óleos lubrificantes

Abstract

With the analysis of oil, it’s possible to detect both the wear of the moving parts of equipments and the presence of contaminating substances. An accurante diagnosis allows it to identify fastly and even anticipate possible problems that can compromise the performance of the machine, avoiding unnecessary stops for repairing. This article aims to demonstrate briefly the importance of the study of the lubricating oil in motor problems detection. The analysis of oil assumes a relevant position among predictive maintenance variables, which aims to reduce the probability of failure in a machine, anticipate the need for intervention in parts and equipments, prevent unnecessary changes and increase the availability time of these machines. In order to make the article, it was used researches in books, magazines, articles in websites, as well as in previously elaborated monographies related to the subject. Furthermore, this work can be used in researches with the purpose of reducing costs and increase the useful life of all components.
