Abstract:This paper explores the method by which lubricating oils that are used in power plants are maintained. Lubricants were shown to protect the tribological systems of power plant equipment through their physical and chemical properties and are key to maintaining the power plant's uptime and profitability. A comprehensive review of developing a condition monitoring program is provided. Proper tribodiagnostics of lubricants allow a power plant to predictively maintain the integrity of its equipment to maximize cost… Show more
