Abstract

Over the years, investigators have extensively studied various aspects of wear in cylinder liners but a survey of the literature has revealed little information on the subject of high wear rates found in the upper portion of the liners. In order to provide a better understanding of the subject, an attempt is made in this paper to assess the primary factors responsible for the high wear rates. It is observed that, although several factors can operate at the same time in influencing the wear process, in general wear is controlled by adhesion with contributions later on from corrosive and abrasive processes. The metallurgy of the liner also plays an important role in determining wear rates.
