Abstract

Traditionally the development process has been used to optimise engine lubrication systems with a lot of hardware testing. This can lead to an expensive and time consuming process which can have major influences on the engine design. To complement engine development, design and analysis principles have been developed for further optimisation and understanding of the lubrication system. To demonstrate this a case study is used illustrating good use of analysis tools, offering clear ways towards system optimisation. In addition, while engine designers have been improving their techniques, new components and oil formulations have helped push the boundaries of the lubrication system, giving better wear and friction characteristics and also increasing oil life.
