Industrial lubricants

Particulates

Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

Particles made up of a wide range of natural materials (e.g., pollen, dust, resins), combined with man-made pollutant (e.g., smoke particles, metallic ash); in sufficient concentrations, particulates ...

Particle impingement erosion

Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

A particulate wear process where high velocity, fluid-entrained particles are directed at target surfaces.

Particle erosion

Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

Occurs when fluid-entrained particles moving at high velocity pass through orifices or impinge on metering surfaces or sharp angle turns.

Particle density

Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

An important parameter in establishing an entrained particle's potential to impinge on control surfaces and cause erosion.

Particle counting

Industrial machinery; Industrial lubricants

A microscopic technique that enables the visual counting of particles in a known quantity of fliud. The count identifies the number of particles present greater than a particular micron size per unit ...
