Abstract

This paper developed a wear testing machine and investigated experimental study of wear among cylinder liner (CL) and piston ring (PR) pair for automobiles. Mahua oil is used as the lubricant between the CL and PR pair. The process parameters are controlled to reduce the weight loss of PR using response surface methodology (RSM). The three process parameters such as applied load, sliding velocity and quantity of oil are considered. It is observed that sliding velocity and applied load are the most influencing parameters whereas the interaction of quantity of oil has less influencing parameter on weight loss of PR. Experimental results are in good compatibility with the values from the theoretical model.
