High Temperature Lubrication is based on a study of lubrication at high temperatures, the need for which was highlighted by a survey of engineers in industry. One of the first difficulties in discussing high temperature lubrication is the problem of defining what is a high temperature. In the context of grease lubrication, high temperature problems can arise at any temperature over 130?C; for the lubrication of vehicle engines, sump temperatures over 150?C are probably too high; solid lubrication of ceramics can be successful up to 100?C. It follows, then, that for the engineers and technologist for whom this book is written, a working definition for 'high temperature' can be taken to mean any temperature high enough to cause problems which would not arise at lower temperatures. The aim of this book is to provide, in a simple form which can be easily understood by non-specialists, information which is of value to engineers faced with problems of lubrication at high temperatures, whether those temperatures are less than 140?C or greater than 1000?C. The various topics have been described in sufficient detail to enable an engineer to understand the factors involved in solving a high temperature lubrication problem without unnecessary complication.

An important volume in the â??Tribology in Practice Seriesâ?? (TIPS). Thoroughly updated and revised, Lubrication and Lubricant Selection is a much-welcomed third edition of this established and successful title. Since the publication of the earlier editions of this title there have been important developments in some aspects of lubricant technology, notably in automotive engine lubricants: for example significant improvements in their expected service life and in fuel economy. A major cause of these changes has been the increasing international concern for the environmental impact of all sorts of technologies, not least lubricant technology. Greater public anxiety for safety and the environment has resulted in new legislation governing such subjects as product liability and environmental protection. This extended and updated edition of Lubrication and Lubricant Selection presents an accurate picture of the current position, particularly with regard to the rapidly changing technical, testing, specification and regulation situation of engine lubricants. The book provides guidance to lubrication practice in industry, with the emphasis on practical application. Specific guidance is given regarding the appropriate selection of lubricants for a wide range of uses. Factors determining the suitability of a lubricant for a particular purpose are described and explained. COMPLETE CONTENTS: Basic principles of lubrication Choice of lubricant type Lubricating oils Selection of lubricating oil Oil supply systems Oil changing and oil conservation Greases and anti-seizes Dry bearings and solid lubrication Gas bearings Sealing of lubricants Lubricant testing and specifications Lubricant monitoring Lubricant handling and storage Health and safety
