What is Lubrication System ?
Have You ever thought that, Why should we need to change the Engine Oil regularly?
You may know about maintaining your car that is you have to change the Engine lubrication oils time to time.The lubrication system is most important for Engine to work properly. It is the system by which the various rotating and sliding engine parts are lubricated to reduce the friction. Because frictional forces causes wear and tear of rubbing parts of the engine and thereby the life of the engine is reduced. So the rubbing part requires that some substance should be introduced between the rubbing surfaces in order to decrease the frictional force between them. Such substance is called lubricant.Oil travels between the various parts as it flows through engine then it forms a thin film between the rubbing surfaces. And lubricant prevents metal -to- metal contact and cleans, smooths for moving parts in an engine as they cycle thousands of times every minute. And it controls the efficient temperature in an engine.The main task of Oil is to keep the things oily so they could not get dry.So we can say “Lubrication is the admission of oil between two surface having relative motion”.
