Description 

Bench tests are commonly used to evaluate the lubrication and wear properties of industrial fluids when used in various types of machinery. In some cases, custom-made equipment and test configurations have been developed to evaluate lubrication and wear of specific wear contacts in a particular machine. Unfortunately, bench tests are often used without any validation of the lubrication and wear properties obtained in the machinery being modeled. Such testing strategies are worse than no tests at all. Therefore, there is a great need in the lubricants industry to address this long-standing and increasingly important problem.

To address this problem, ASTM Committee D2 on Petroleum Products and Lubricants, along with its subcommittee D02.L0 on Industrial Lubricants, held a Symposium on Bench Testing of the Lubrication and Wear Properties of Industrial Fluids Used in Machinery Applications in Seattle, Washington on June 26-27, 2000. The objective of this conference was to provide a forum on the selection of bench tests and testing conditions to model lubrication and wear properties of fluids used in various industrial machines and components such as: compressors, pumps, chain drives, transmissions, bearings, and others.

This book is a collection of the papers presented at this event, all of which address various aspects of bench tests selection, limitations, along with lubrication and wear simulations.
