- Abstract
- Recently, an increasing demand for performance assessment of lubrication oil has been noticed. Considerable techniques and systems in lubrication oil condition monitoring have been developed and successfully utilized in many applications such as gasoline/diesel engines, gearboxes, etc. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the existing lubrication oil condition monitoring solutions and their characteristics along with the classification and evaluation of each technique. The reviewed techniques are analyzed and classified into four categories: electrical (magnetic), physical, chemical, and optical techniques. The characteristic of each solution and its sensing technique is evaluated with a set of properties which are crucial for oil health monitoring, diagnostics and prognostics. A comprehensive comparison among a wide range of different lubrication oil condition monitoring solutions is conducted.
