ʻO ka mea kānana ʻaila ʻenekini ka ʻaila ʻaila. ʻO ka hana o ka ʻaila ʻaila kānana ʻo ia ke kānana i nā mea like ʻole, colloids a me ka makū i loko o ka ʻaila ʻenekini a hāʻawi i ka aila mīkini maʻemaʻe i nā ʻāpana lubricating āpau.
I mea e hōʻemi ai i ke kūʻē ʻana o ka friction ma waena o nā ʻāpana neʻe pili i loko o ka mīkini a hoʻemi i ka ʻaʻahu ʻana o nā ʻāpana, lawe mau ʻia ka ʻaila i ka ʻili friction o kēlā me kēia ʻāpana neʻe e hana i kahi kiʻi ʻaila lubricating no ka lubrication. Aia i loko o ka ʻaila ʻenekini kekahi nui o ke kāʻei, nā haumia, ka wai a me nā mea hoʻohui. I ka manawa like, i ka wā o ka hana ʻana o ka mīkini, ka hoʻokomo ʻana i nā ʻōpala metala, ke komo ʻana o nā mea i loko o ka lewa a me ka hana ʻana o nā ʻaila ʻaila e hoʻonui mālie i nā mea i loko o ka aila. Inā ʻaʻole kānana ʻia ka ʻaila a komo pololei i ke kaapuni aila lubricating, e lawe ʻia nā mea i loko o ka ʻaila i loko o ka ʻili friction o ka hui neʻe, e hoʻolōʻihi i ka ʻaʻahu o nā ʻāpana a hōʻemi i ke ola lawelawe o ka mīkini.
Ma muli o ka viscosity kiʻekiʻe o ka ʻaila ʻenekini ponoʻī a me ke kiʻekiʻe o nā mea haumia i loko o ka ʻaila ʻenekini, i mea e hoʻomaikaʻi ai i ka hoʻomaʻamaʻa kānana ʻana, ʻekolu pae maʻamau ka kānana aila ʻenekini: ʻohi ʻaila ʻenekini, kānana aila mīkini a me ka ʻaila ʻaila lua. kānana. Hoʻokomo ʻia ka ʻohi kānana i loko o ka pā aila i mua o ka ʻaila ʻaila a hoʻohana maʻamau i ke ʻano pale kānana metala. Hoʻokomo ʻia ka kānana aila mua ma hope o ka pauma ʻaila a hoʻopili pū ʻia me ka moʻo ʻaila nui. Loaʻa ka mea nui me ka scraper metala, ka mea kānana sawdust a me ka pepa kānana microporous. I kēia manawa, hoʻohana nui ʻia ka pepa kānana microporous. Hoʻokomo ʻia ka kānana aila maikaʻi ma hope o ka pauma ʻaila a hoʻopili like me ka ʻaila ʻaila nui, ʻo ia hoʻi me ke ʻano pepa kānana microporous a me ke ʻano rotor. Hoʻohana ʻia ka kānana aila ʻano rotor i ka kānana centrifugal me ka ʻole o ka kānana, e hoʻoponopono pono i ka kūʻē ʻana ma waena o ka hiki ʻana o ka aila a me ka pono kānana.
