Gas Turbine Engines Lubrication System Design
Abstract:
There are many reasons for having a lubricant within the engine besides that of reducing friction. However scrupulously clean the engine is maintained, there will always be a small amount of dirt or impurities that find their way inside. That dirt must be removed before it can cause damage to bearings or block small oil passageways. The oil can be used to keep the engine clean by carrying dirt to the oil filter where it is strained out and where it remains until replacement of the filter. The majority of the bearings within the engine are manufactured from steel, a metal which would soon oxidize itself if it were not prevented from doing so by a liberal coating of oil, thus the lubricant will also minimise corrosion inside the engine.
