Automatic lubricator
An automatic lubricator, is a device fitted to a steam engine to supply lubricating oil to the cylinders and, sometimes, the bearings and axle box mountings as well.

Bearing (mechanical)
A bearing is a machine element that constrains relative motion to only the desired motion, and reduces friction between moving parts.
New!!: Lubrication and Bearing (mechanical) · See more »
Cam
A cam is a rotating or sliding piece in a mechanical linkage used especially in transforming rotary motion into linear motion.
New!!: Lubrication and Cam · See more »
Cutting tool (machining)
In the context of machining, a cutting tool or cutter is any tool that is used to remove material from the work piece by means of shear deformation.

Dispersion (chemistry)
A dispersion is a system in which particles are dispersed in a continuous phase of a different composition (or state).
New!!: Lubrication and Dispersion (chemistry) · See more »
Fluid dynamics
In physics and engineering, fluid dynamics is a subdiscipline of fluid mechanics that describes the flow of fluids - liquids and gases.
New!!: Lubrication and Fluid dynamics · See more »
Friction
Friction is the force resisting the relative motion of solid surfaces, fluid layers, and material elements sliding against each other.
New!!: Lubrication and Friction · See more »
Gas
Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being solid, liquid, and plasma).
New!!: Lubrication and Gas · See more »
Grease (lubricant)
Grease is a semisolid lubricant.

Hydrostatics
Fluid statics or hydrostatics is the branch of fluid mechanics that studies fluids at rest.
New!!: Lubrication and Hydrostatics · See more »
Liquid
A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure.
New!!: Lubrication and Liquid · See more »
Lubricant
A lubricant is a substance, usually organic, introduced to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move.
New!!: Lubrication and Lubricant · See more »
Machine element
Machine element refers to an elementary component of a machine.

Molybdenum disulfide
Molybdenum disulfide is an inorganic compound composed of molybdenum and sulfur.
New!!: Lubrication and Molybdenum disulfide · See more »
Oil
An oil is any nonpolar chemical substance that is a viscous liquid at ambient temperatures and is both hydrophobic (does not mix with water, literally "water fearing") and lipophilic (mixes with other oils, literally "fat loving").
New!!: Lubrication and Oil · See more »
Piston
A piston is a component of reciprocating engines, reciprocating pumps, gas compressors and pneumatic cylinders, among other similar mechanisms.
New!!: Lubrication and Piston · See more »
Pump
A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, by mechanical action.
New!!: Lubrication and Pump · See more »
Reynolds equation
The Reynolds Equation is a partial differential equation governing the pressure distribution of thin viscous fluid films in Lubrication theory.
New!!: Lubrication and Reynolds equation · See more »
Solid
Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being liquid, gas, and plasma).

Tribology
Tribology is the science and engineering of interacting surfaces in relative motion.
New!!: Lubrication and Tribology · See more »
Turbine
A turbine (from the Latin turbo, a vortex, related to the Greek τύρβη, tyrbē, meaning "turbulence") is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fluid flow and converts it into useful work.

Water
Water is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans, and the fluids of most living organisms.

Wear
Wear is the damaging, gradual removal or deformation of material at solid surfaces.
