Turbine Lube Oil Monitoring and Analysis Using IOT

Lubrication oil is a crucial component in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of turbines. Its primary function is to provide lubrication and cooling to the intricate components within the turbine, thereby minimizing friction, reducing wear, and extending operational life. This abstract delves into the significance of lubrication oil properties for turbine applications, exploring the key properties that lubrication oil must possess, including viscosity, thermal stability, oxidation resistance, corrosion protection, foam control, demulsibility, and low volatility. These properties collectively contribute to maintaining optimal performance and safeguarding the longevity of turbines. This research study highlights the necessity of monitoring and maintaining these properties through sensors and regular analysis to ensure reliable turbine operation, enhanced energy efficiency, and reduced downtime. The study highlights the crucial role of lubrication oil properties in turbine functionality and emphasizes their pivotal role in maintaining the reliability of power generation systems.
