Abstract
A laboratory method has been developed for evaluating how gas–condensate diesel fuels tend to reduce wear, which employs a four–sphere friction machine. It has been found that fuels from gas condensates and ones that have been purified in a hydrocracker have less good antiwear behavior than direct–distilled oil ones. The largest effect on the properties comes from the concentration of sulfur compounds, with much less effect from the viscosity and the aromatic hydrocarbon content. Recommendations are made on certain ways of improving the antiwear behavior of gas–condensate diesel fuels.
