Herguth W.R., Warne Th.M. (Eds.) Turbine Lubrication in the 21st Century

American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), 2001, 108 pages, ISBN: 0803128851This comprehensive ASTM publication presents the latest information on new generation turbine lubricants and how to obtain maximum value from these oils. Eight peer-reviewed papers cover: Current and future directions for some synthetic, ester- and hydrocarbon-based fluids; History of development and current state of base oil technology, including new processing methods for the production of more stable turbine oils; Performance advantages of using Group II and Group III base oils; Turbine oil quality and field application requirements. New technology for monitoring antioxidant oil analysis.This publication summarizes the presentations delivered at the "Symposium on Turbine Lubrication in the 21 st Century," held in Seattle, Washington on June 26, 2000. The symposium was sponsored by ASTM Committee D-2 on Petroleum Products and Lubricants and its Subcommittee
