4、raft Propulsion System Lubricating OilsFOREWORDAll modern aviation propulsion system lubricant specifications contain some type of a gear scuffing/scoring test to measure the lubricants load carrying capacity, i.e., Ryder, IAE, and FZG. These tests are costly and recently have exhibited questionable

5、 reliability and availability and, in the case of the Ryder Test, complete unavailability because of a lack of a test gear source.There are very large databases (from the past 30 plus years) for these tests and they form the basis for judging on the effectiveness of various products in controlling s

6、cuffing or scoring. For this reason, there are some strong ties to these devices. However, because of the expense of running these tests and because of the limited utility of the data generated regarding hardware design, there is little support to reestablish these tests to their former role. Althou

7、gh limited efforts may restore some capacity to perform these tests, the long-term perspective is to develop new methods based on the abundance of tribology research that has and is being done.The continued use of the these gear type tests is considered at best tenuous and the development of new met

8、hods to completely replace the old methods is far term. Thus, there is a need to have test methods for the interim and that is the purpose of this document.INTRODUCTIONThis SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) is intended as a guide toward standard practices during a period when the ability to per

9、form previously used lubricant load carrying test methods, such as Ryder and IAE, is severely limited. The methods presented herein are the result of communication among lubricant formulators, hardware designers, lubricant specialists, tribologists, lubricant specification writers, and lubricant use

10、rs. These methods do not necessarily have a definitive correlation with the previously used test devices but rather provide a ranking relationship for oils of different load carrying classes as defined by those devices. As such, they can be used to generate data to assist in making judgments regardi

11、ng qualification and batch approval of lubricants formulated with current state-of-the-art basestocks and additives which have a long service history. They should not be used for making judgments or decisions of any kind for oil formulation chemistry with no or little previous load carrying data and

19、-3. METHOD SELECTION:3.1 Process for Approving Test Methods:Methods will be submitted to Committee E-34 with data showing their relationship to a standardized load capacity test previously used for aviation propulsion system lubricants. The method should: a) Be affordable, i.e., cost no more than th

20、e currently used methods; b) Have adequate sources of test specimens; c) Separate oil performance according to the currently accepted load carrying classes as determined by databases for standardized load carrying test methods.The Committee will review a method and supporting data and a) give tentat

21、ive approval, b) give guidance for changes or for additional data to make a method acceptable, or c) reject a method as outside the scope of this document.Use of a tentatively approved method will generate a broader database for the particular method and the committee will review the data and experi

22、ence on this method at each meeting. Full approval for inclusion in the document, suggestions to improve the method or rejection of the method could result from these reviews.This document and process will remain in effect until the committee decides there is no longer a need for alternate methods o

30、ILSB.1 SCOPE/BACKGROUND:Lubricant load carrying performance is an important parameter when considering evaluation/approval of a lubricant type for a specific application. The test methods currently in use within the aviation propulsion industry for assessing compliance with specification requirement

31、s are the Ryder and the IAE gear tests.The Rolls-Royce tribology evaluator is a device used to rate the relative lubricating quality of aviation turbine oils. Employing ball-on-cylinder philosophy, a nonrotating steel ball is held in a vertically mounted chuck and forced against an axially mounted s

32、teel cylinder with an applied load. The test cylinder is rotated at a fixed speed while being partially immersed in the fluid reservoir. This maintains the cylinder in a wet condition and continuously transports a film of test fluid to the ball/cylinder interface. The wear scar generated on the test

33、 ball is a measure of the fluid lubricating properties.B.2 TYPES OF WEAR:Using this apparatus, the two distinct types of wear mechanisms most commonly seen in oil system components, namely mild and scuffing wear, can be reproduced and studied. Only a scuffing wear test method is included in this doc

34、ument.B.2.1 Mild Wear:As the test cylinder rotates, the lubricant is continuously transported to the ball/cylinder interface. At this interface under mild wear conditions, there is an elastohydrodynamic boundary layer of lubricant which prevents contact of anything other than the surface asperities

35、of the ball and cylinder. However, due to the difference in hardness of these asperities, abrasion and, hence, mild wear occurs. Any wear debris carried from the cylinder to the wear scar area can also be a contributory factor.B.2.2 Scuffing Wear:At a specific applied ball load, a transition from mi

36、ld to scuffing wear can be observed. At this transition, a reduction and ultimate breakdown of boundary lubrication and film thickness occurs. This results in full metal-to-metal contact of the sliding surfaces, leading to severe adhesive wear and a large wear scar. Loadings beyond this transition w

37、ill result in localized welding of the surfaces and eventual seizure. It must be noted that scuffing wear is an entirely different tribological and physical phenomenon compared to mild wear. This method is concerned with the determination of the maximum load a particular lubricant can withstand prio

38、r to the onset of scuffing type wear.Copyright SAE International Provided by IHS under license with SAENot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-SAE AIR4978 Revision B- 6 -B.3 PRIMARY TEST EQUIPMENT (See Figure B1):B.3.1 Test Ball Specification:Material : Chrom

41、APPARATUS:Figures B3 and B4 show the system components.A speed controlled motor (0.25 kW), coupled directly to a reduction gearbox, provides the rotational drive to the test cylinder. The gearbox reduces the maximum shaft speed from1850 to 440 rpm producing a maximum sliding speed of 44 in/s. A flex

42、ible drive coupling is incorporated between the motor and the test section to minimize the effect of any shaft misalignment.The load arm and support are arranged with a moment such that the ball load is three times that applied to the arm.Oil heating is provided via two 110 V/500 W cartridge heaters
