  2. Oil pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pressure

    Murphy oil pressure gauges with switches that activate on low pressure. Oil pressure is an important factor in the longevity of most internal combustion engines. [1] With a forced lubrication system (invented by Frederick Lanchester), oil is picked up by a positive displacement oil pump and forced through oil galleries (passageways) into bearings, such as the main bearings, big end bearings ...

  3. Xanthan gum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthan_gum

    In the oil industry, xanthan gum is used in large quantities to thicken drilling mud. [7] These fluids carry the solids cut by the drilling bit to the surface. Xanthan gum provides improved "low end" [clarification needed] rheology. When circulation stops, the solids remain suspended in the drilling fluid.

  4. Extreme pressure additive - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_pressure_additive

    Oil-soluble organophosphates, with or without zinc, have excellent high-pressure and antiwear properties, and provide corrosion protection especially in presence of chlorinated hydrocarbons. Zinc dialkyldithiophosphates (ZDDP) start decomposing at 130-170 °C, while the activation temperature of tricresyl phosphate (TCP) typically exceeds 200 ...

  5. Oil pump (internal combustion engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pump_(internal...

    The oil pressure at the pump outlet, which is what opens the pressure relief valve, is simply the resistance to flow caused by the bearing clearances and restrictions. The oil pressure gauge or warning lamp reflects the pressure at the specific point where its sensor is located within the pressurized system.

  7. Splash lubrication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splash_lubrication

    The oil droplets then pass through drillings to the bearings and thereby lubricate the moving parts. [3] Provided that the bearing is a ball bearing or a roller bearing, splash lubrication would usually be sufficient; however, plain bearings typically need a pressure feed to maintain the oil film, loss of which leads to overheating and seizure.
