Description: This publication is devoted to the problems of lubrication of marine
diesel engines and the oils used in them. The role of additives is considered in
detail and recommendations are given on the choice of certain types of oils in

Considering that oils of foreign companies are mainly used on ships today, along with
the classification of oils according to GOST, the classifications adopted in
the USA and the European Union are given.
Particular attention is paid to the problems of organizing the lubrication
of the cylinder-piston group and separately to the lubrication of
movement parts. Here, in a systematic way, the reader gets acquainted
with the latest recommendations of engine manufacturers and oil
manufacturers. Causes of emergency damage and intensive wear and tear, ways to
overcome them are shown. Of interest to the reader may be recommendations
for changing oils from different manufacturers or mixing them, based
on research by British Petroleum, recommendations for the upper limit of
alkalinity of circulating oils contaminated with cylinder oil effluents, as
well as for limiting values ​​for oil quality indicators in operation.
The issues of operation of bearings with thin-walled multilayer
shells, the causes of wear and damage and ways to recognize them
are considered in detail.
Along with information on motor oils, the book provides
characteristics of oils for turbine, compressor, hydraulic and heat transfer fluids

Given that modern oils and fuels are saturated with various chemical
compounds that pose a danger to human health, the book includes
information about the ways of possible contamination and hygiene measures
