Description for The Tribology of Internal Combustion Engines
Hardcover. Understanding the contact between surfaces in combustion engines, and the tribological analysis and management of the wear, is important to engine management. This text discusses the topic. Editor(s): Rudston, S. Num Pages: 134 pages, 104ill. BIC Classification: TGBF; TGBN. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (XV) Technical / Manuals. Dimension: 234 x 165 x 13. Weight in Grams: 340.
Tribology embraces the process of friction, lubrication, and wear in mechanical equipment. It finds particular application for reducing the consumption of energy and fuel, and for increasing the reliability and service life of machinery. As hard-won experience is built up, the principles of good design are increasingly clarified and become available for wider use.

There can be few examples for which this cycle of learning and feedback is more economically valuable than the refinement of the internal combustion engine - the prime mover of today's highly mobile economy.
Based on papers presented at an IMechE seminar, Tribology of Internal ... Read more should be read by all those working in the fields of tribology and automotive engine technology.
