This paper presents the oil leakage characteristics of the valve stem system in gasoline engines. For the oil leakage investigation, four study models have been prepared as functions of used poppet valve and used valve stem seal, used poppet valve and unused valve stem seal, unused poppet valve and used valve stem seal, and unused poppet valve and unused valve stem seal. With four models, the experimental study on the oil leakage has been investigated for the oil temperature, intake pressure, and camshaft speed. The experimental results show that the sealing performance of the valve stem seal plays an important role on the leakage of the valve stem system. And the appropriate replacement of a stem seal with used poppet valve shows good sealing performance in oil leakage in compared with a new valve system.

Our experiment investigated the degree of soil contaimination caused by oil leakage. Each soil sample was taken by boring 5, 8m below the test areas, located 5 to 30m from storage tanks at oil stations. According to the results from a series of laboratory tests(both soxhiet extract test and gas chromatograph test), Traces of a light oil were found in all samples except in Dj8, rocky soil and gasoline and petroleum were not detected. We concluded that soil contamination was caused by the corrosion of storage tanks or alternatively by oil overflow caused during the flooding of underground water seeping into the tank during heavy rain fall or the spillage caused by carelessness during lubrication. Old stations without a concrete box enclosing their metal tanks run a greater risk of oil leakage. To research the effect of oil leakage on plant growth and underground water, We examined the results of research conducted overseas. According to these results, when oil leakage occurs, plant growth is repressed and agricultural crops experience low productivity levels. Also, the contamination of underground water can be serious when oil spreads to the aquifer layer. As a result of these problems, to prevent oil leakage and minimize its contaminating effects at oil stations, it is necessary to improve facilities of storage tanks and have the monitoring system of oil leakage.

In a power plant, an oil and steam leakage is generated once in a while. This is because the operating temperature and pressure of oil are very high. It is very difficult to monitor oil leakage, because oil leakage is almost invisible. Therefore a method to oil leakage detecting quickly and accurately is needs. In this paper, we proposed the method for the detecting oil leakage by using image processing and CCTV. To test the performance of this technique, experiments have been performed for simple case. Results show that the proposed technique is quite powerful in the oil leak detection.

In this paper, ageing diagnostics in the large capacity oil transformer are investigated. Following items are investigated for the ageing diagnostic in transformer oils (leakage current of sensor, power consumption and temperature of transformer oil). All temperature data are gathered from daily report in the substation. The power consumption of transformer are gathered output report of APIS(Airport Power Information System). Especially, data of sensor leakage current are accumulated from the online diagnostic system for transformer oil. The temperature of transformer oils major change factor was ambient temperature and capacity of power load. The leakage current are change by oil temperature. The leakage current ware not more than 2 [nA] in summer,

It is well known that the degradation of transformer oil conseqently lead to the failure of transformer. This paper discussed the characteristics of the degradation sensor checking transformer oil condition in live line. The degadation sensor is composed of base ring, electrodes and porous ceramic, passed through the transformer oil and checks the transformer oil condition through sensor's leakage current. So it is important to minimize the leakage current of base ring and connection parts. To investigate the leakage current of base ring and connection parts the characteristics of V-T-I and DC 2 KV and other examinations were performed. It is verified that ionized transformer oil caused by the expansion of temperature increases in the leakage current of porous ceramic sensor. It is certification that the leakage current of other parts of porous ceramic is very small(about 2%) compared with the porous ceramic body and it is confirmed that the leakage current in porous ceramic is changed sensitively according to the new oil(NO) and and the degradation oil(DO).

Sealing an oil-air mixture plays important roles to have an enhanced lubrication for high speed spindle. High speed spindles require non-contact type sealing mechanism. In this study, an optimum seal design to minimize leakage is concerned in the aspect of flow control. This paper categorizes geometries of mostly used non-contact type seals and analyzes each leakage characteristics to minimize a leakage on sealing area. Effect of minimum clearance and its position are considered according to variation of detail geometry. The estimation of non-leaking property is determined by amount of pressure drop in the leakage path assuming constant leakage flow. To simulate an oil jet or oil mist type high speed spindle lubrication, the working fluid is regarded as two phases that are mixed flow of oil phase and air phase. Both of the turbulence and the compressible flow model were introduced in CFD(Computational Fluid Dynamics) analysis. Design parameters has been induced to minimize leakage in limited space, and a methodological study on geometrical optimization has been conducted.

The purpose of this paper is to present the case study of tribological failure analysis on the gear damages, oil leakage, and sealant sealing in a manual transmission of front engine and front wheel drive vehicle. The manual transmission is to change the speed range and direction of the engines depending on the driving conditions by friction driving forces with input and output gear system. The material property and surface roughness of the gears are strongly related to the gear noise and micro-vibration, oil leakage and wear, which may decrease the real contact area of the gear and the strength of the oil film thickness between the driving gear and driven one. The O-ring damage of speedometer driven gear and bad sealant sealing of oil pan may produce oil leakage through the contact surfaces, which cause the oil shortage and seizure on the sliding surfaces of the transaxle gears. In the failure case study, the proper repair working and good lubrication are very important for the long life of the transaxle without any tribological failures and oil leakage.

바다에서 발생하는 유조선 등으로부터의 기름 유출사고는 해양환경을 크게 훼손하는 재앙에 속한다. 이러한 사고에 효과적으로 대응하기 위해서는 사고의 초기에 기름의 유출양을 정확히 판단하여 그에 적절한 대응방법을 수립하는 것이 필요하다. 기름 유출양의 추정을 위해서 사용되는 가장 간단한 방법은 토리첼리의 평형관계식을 사용하는 것이다. 하지만 이러한 평형관계식은 관성력과 점성력이 무시되었기 때문에 실제의 현상과는 다소 거리가 있다. 본 논문에서는 탱크로부터의 기름 유출양 산정을 위한 기초적인 실험과 수치계산을 수행하였다. 소형 유리 수조에 상자모양의 아크릴 기름탱크를 설치하고 종횡비가 다른 사각형의 유출구를 빠져나가는 기름의 양과 모양을 계측하였다. 그리고 유한체적법과 VOF법 등의 CFD 기술을 활용하여 기름과 물의 유동을 수치 시뮬레이션 하였다. CFD 계산견과는 실험에서 계측된 값과 좋은 일치를 보였으며, 복잡한 해난사고에서의 유출양 산정을 위한 CFD 기술의 활용가능성을 확인할 수 있었다. 본 논문의 실험조건에서 기름의 유출속도는 유출구의 형상에 따라 결정되는 유출구 내부의 마찰력에 의해 달라지며, 토리첼리 평형관계식으로부터 얻어지는 유출속도의 35~55%임을 알 수 있었고, 만약 유출구의 두께를 무시하면 종횡비에 상관없이 52%로 일정하게 추정되었다.

Experimentally to investigate the conductive characteristic of oil-immersed paper, we observed the leakage current-voltage characteristic of oil-immersed paper, the temperature dependence of ionization rate and the effect of metal electrode on the leakage current. The results showed that the leakage current-voltage characteristic generally followed the experimental equation i=i$_{0}$ exp (K.root.E) and the slope K did not change by the temperature and electric strength, but only when the direct voltage was applied. And also the leakage current seemed to depend on the work function of metal electrode. From the above results we concluded that the deterioration of oil-immersed paper was not only caused by the thermionic emission from the cathode but also by the conductive property of oil-immersed paper in itself and the work function of metal electrode.e.
