Application of Acoustic Emission Technique to Monitor the Viscosity of Single Grade Diesel Engine Lubricant Oil.

This paper presents an investigation of the capability of the acoustic emission (AE) technology in the processes of monitoring and detecting the variation of diesel engine lubricant viscosity via in-situ operation. The investigations were conducted on an 8.5-hp single cylinder of four strokes with a...
