Learning chapter

Corrosion & Tribology

1 lessons

Marine lubrication, tribological friction regimes, additive chemistry, base oil formulation, Total Base Number (TBN), system oil microbial degradation (SRB, fungi), heat shock pasteurization, and CIMAC condition monitoring.

This chapter collects 1 illustrated lessons on Corrosion & Tribology as part of Auxiliary Machinery & Shipboard Systems, ordered as they are best studied. It opens with Marine Lube Oil Chemistry, Tribology & Microbial Degradation. Each lesson is written for MEO oral and written preparation: definitions first, then how the system behaves, then the checks and figures used in practice.
