Preventing engine damage caused by LSPI
The increasingly stringent emission regulations and fuel-economy demands have forced engine manufacturers to downsize engines while improving their power and torque. The downside of today’s smaller engines with higher power density is their risk to abnormal disruptive combustion, such as knocking and a new phenomenon called low speed pre-ignition (LSPI).
Prevent varnishing by choosing the right turbine oil
The formation of varnish is a common problem for turbine operators. Varnish is difficult to remove and is seen as a silent machine killer that gradually deteriorates the performance of installations. The choice of the right turbine oil is the most efficient way to fight varnish formation. To understand which turbine oils can prevent varnishing, you must understand the characteristics of varnish and how it is formed.
