What is another name for turbine oil?
1 Answers
Turbine oil is also known as TSA steam turbine oil, which is a type of oil used in turbine engines. The following is a related introduction to turbine oil: 1. Purpose: It is used in steam turbines in power plants, hydroelectric generators in hydropower stations, and other applications that require deep refined lubricating oil. It is suitable for high-speed mechanical lubrication and primarily functions to lubricate, dissipate heat, cool, and regulate speed. 2. Viscosity grade: Turbine oil is classified into ISO viscosity grades of 32, 46, 68, and 100. Its density changes with the kinematic viscosity of the steam turbine oil. The main parameter evaluated for steam turbine oil is kinematic viscosity, where dynamic viscosity/density = kinematic viscosity. The approximate density range of steam turbine oil is between 0.9 and 0.91.
