ABSTRAK
Kelikatan minyak enjin
bergred tunggal mengalami perubahan apabila berlakunya perubahan pada suhu dan
tekanan. Namun begitu, secara realiti kelikatan minyak enjin juga mengalami
perubahan terhadap usia guna. Oleh itu, kajian ini memperkenalkan satu hubungan
kelikatan minyak enjin terhadap perubahan suhu serta usia guna. Hubungan ini
berasaskan kepada persamaan matematik empirik yang melibatkan teori pelincir
Newtonan dan bukan Newtonan. Hubungan yang baru ini dikenali sebagai model
kelikatan matematik (ηmath). Dalam model ini, kelikatan
minyak enjin dipengaruh oleh dua faktor iaitu faktor suhu (ks)
dan faktor masa (km). Nilai kedua-dua faktor ini
bergantung kepada formula bahan tambah minyak enjin tersebut. Analisis reologi
meter likat telah digunakan untuk mendapatkan nilai kedua-dua faktor ini. Hasil
kajian menunjukkan kelikatan minyak enjin mengalami penurunan apabila usia guna
meningkat. Ini dibuktikan melalui model kelikatan matematik (ηmath)
dan juga analisis reologi meter likat.

ABSTRACT
Single grade engine oil
viscosity experience changes influenced by temperature and pressure. In reality
however, the viscosity of the engine oil is also affected by age. A
relationship between oil’s viscosity with temperature and age is proposed in
this paper. This relationship is based on an empirical mathematical equation
which involves Newtonian and non-Newtonian lubricant theory. Based on the model
proposed, the engine oil viscosity was influenced by two factors namely
temperature (ks) and time (km). Both of there factors depends
on the engine oil additive formula. As such, by applying rheology viscometer
analysis, the value of these factors can be determined. This research showed
that the engine oil viscosity was inversely proportional with the use age,
established via mathematical viscosity model (ηmath)
and also rheology viscometer analysis.
