Abstract

Engine lubricating oil and charge air are cooled by Low Temperature (BT) circuits in the CAT 3408 design, while cylinder liners, cylinder heads, and the body of turbofans are cooled by High Tem-perature (HT) circuits. Based on the analysis, this work will determine the lubrication compliance of the Yacco VX 100 - SAE 15 W- 40 oil and the Camwater water used in the Boat Yang 1 engine. This will be done by conducting a series of conventional tests on both the oil and water. For the oil case, these tests will measure density, viscosity, flash point, density, sulphate center content, water content, total acidity index (TAN), total basic number (TBN), and pour point. For the water case, the conventional tests will measure pH, hardness, sodium chloride content [NaCl], and sodium sulphate content [NaSO4]. The results will be compared to the specified requirements to determine if compliance is achieved for each of these characteristics. The results of the oil and water samples taken f
