Material and Failure Analysis of Six Cylinder Diesel Engine Oil Cooler Cover

Oil cooler cover is generally the most important part of the internal combustion engine. Oil cooling is the use of engine oil as a coolant, typically to remove surplus heat from an internal combustion engine. The hot engine transfers heat to the oil which then usually passes through a heat-exchanger, typically a type of radiator known as oil cooler. The cooled oil flows back into the hot object to cool it continuously. Hence study and analysis is done on the Oil cooler cover regarding its repetitive errors or problems. The errors are first read out from the notes or observations given by the division and then actually observed. In all nearly 100 engines were stripped and the problem of oil mixing with water was found. Now for this instance chemical composition of material plays a major role. For required results, the method used for analysing the chemical composition of the material is Optical Emission Spectrometer (OES).
