Chemistry and Technology of Fuels and Oils Aims and scope

Summary

  1. 1.

    The motor oils M14VTS (TU 38-101150-71) and M15GB (TU 1-01-447-74), were developed in 1967–1968; through the rational use of these oils and through certain engineering-design changes, it has become possible to provide the necessary engine life for marine and locomotive medium-speed diesels at the level of 1970–1975 requirements.

  2. 2.

    In order to ensure the operability of newly developed diesels and in order to increase the life of currentproduction diesels, new oils with more effective additives will be required.

  3. 3.

    The determination of viscosity in accordance with GOST 33–66 on oils that have been in service for extended periods is essentially impossible, owing to the opacity and the so-called structural viscosity of these oils. Reliable viscosity values can be obtained on such oils in the Rheo/Hoeppler and Rheotest viscometers.
