18. Lubricating Oil System
18.1
General design
Normally, a wet sump system is used, but also dry sump systems
can be used.
The engine is provided with a lubricating oil pump (3) directly
driven by the pump gear at the driving end of the crankshaft. It
is possible to connect an electrically driven stand-by pump in
parallel if needed. The pump sucks oil from the engine oil sump
and forces it through the lubricating oil cooler (6) equipped with
a thermostat valve (5) regulating the oil temperature, through the
lubricating oil automatic filter (7) to the main distributing pipe
in the oil sump, through the hydraulic jacks (in this respect acting
ordinary pipes) to the main bearings and through bores in the
connecting rods to the gudgeon pins (10), piston skirt lubricating
and piston cooling spaces.
