Determining New Baselines of Wear Material in Diesel Engines, Using Oil Analysis Results

Article Preview

Abstract:

Oil analysis technique is used as predictive and proactive tools to identify the wear modes of rubbing parts and to diagnose the faults in machinery. In this paper, the wear behavior of diesel engines, especially on oil analysis, is studied based on condition data. In terms of analyzing historical data, descriptive statistics is used as data mining tools to find the relationship between condition factors of the machine and its final status. The equipments have been monitored in two different environments which are: plantation-forestry, and general construction. Based on this relationship a specific baseline is achieved for selected sets of equipment in their specific conditions. A striking result is that the new baseline for each material is different significantly in each condition, which shows that for each condition making a specific baseline is essential.
