Based on structure and composition characteristics of engine oil, the new algorithm for its Infrared Spectrum (IR) Identification has been put forward. The Hit Quality Index and Related Hit Quality Index are widely used in Infrared Spectrum Identification recently. The two methods don’t take the importance of the variables into consideration and cannot distinguish the unobvious variation in IR spectra. Therefore the diversity weight factor was introduced into the new algorithm to promote its selectivity. The experimental results had shown that the new spectrum similarity evaluation index could distinguish the unobvious spectrum variations and to improve the infrared spectrum identification capability of engine oils.

It was suggested to use group D engine oil with advanced properties instead of group V and G engine oils, which are used in locomotive diesel engines today, to improve the performance of the Ukrainian locomotive fleet of railways.A series of comparative laboratory studies of these oil groups was conducted to substantiate this suggestion which proved better lubrication and tribological performance of group D engine oil and allowed its performance tests.Tests conducted on diesel 5D49 for mileage of more then 100,000 km have demonstrated the advantages of group D oils, such as more stable viscosity, neutralizing ,washing and other properties. Studies on the four-ball wear test machine proved better anti-wear, anti-scoring and anti-friction properties of group D engine oil, which appear even after the continuous use of oils in locomotive diesels. Decrease in burning loss of engine oil was recorded, resulting in the decrease of oil fuel consumption for group D by 30-60% vs. the group G oil.According to the results of performance tests, group D engine oil has been recommended for the use in 5D49 locomotive diesels and some advice on its future implementation have been provided.

The thermal properties of engine oil are important traits affecting the ability of the oil to transfer heat from the engine. The larger the thermal conductivity and specific heat, the more efficiently the oil will transfer heat. In this work, we measured the thermal conductivity and specific heat of a conventional mineral oil-based diesel engine lubricant and a Group V-based LHR diesel engine lubricant as a function of temperature. We also measured the specific heat of ethylene glycol. The measured values are compared with manufacturers’ data for typical heat transfer fluids. The Group V-based engine oil had a higher thermal conductivity and slightly lower specific heat than the mineral oil-based engine oil. Both engine oils had values comparable to high-temperature heat transfer fluids.

In this paper, PVA electrospun nanofiber was prepared on the surface of three different automobile engine oil filtration materials including polyester nonwoven, glass fiber nonwoven, and cotton pulp filtration paper. It was found that the substrate of cotton pulp filtration paper and the nanofiber layer had better adhesive effect. Then we A comparison of fiber diameter, pore diameter, filtration accuracy and pressure drop between the cotton pulp paper and nanofiber composite filtration material was then made. The results show that the nanofiber composite material had smaller pore diameter and filtration accuracy, higher pressure drop, and better oil filtration property. Additionally, the difference of pressure drop between the substrate and nanofiber composite material increased with increasing flow rate of experimental oil. The goal of this paper was use the electrospun nanofiber in the automobile engine oil filtration.
