This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) is intended to evaluate corrosion inhibiting properties of synthetic gas turbine lubricants and gearbox oils.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) is intended to evaluate corrosion inhibiting properties of synthetic gas turbine lubricants and gearbox oils.

This method is designed to evaluate the coking propensity of synthetic ester-based aviation lubricants under two phase air-oil mist conditions as found in certain parts of a gas turbine engine, for instance, bearing chamber vent lines. Based on the results from round robin data in 2008–2009 from four laboratories, this method is currently intended to provide a comparison between lubricants as a research tool; it is not currently a satisfactory pass/fail test. At this juncture a reference oil may improve reproducibility (precision between laboratories); a formal precision statement will be given when there is satisfactory data and an agreed on, suitable reference oil if applicable.

The document is a recommended guide for evaluating new or replacement test methods. It considers applicability, suitability, accessibility, and return on effort. Particular emphasis should be placed on completing the “strategy definition” portion of this document (Stage 2), to capture all relevant process stages and complete in a recognizable order for any specific development project. The overall process should: 1 address the rationale behind testing; 2 result in a thorough review of whether a test is fit for purpose; 3 act as a pathway for vetting if a test should be added to AS5780. If, in any project, this process is not an exact fit, users should feel free to adjust, as necessary. The process provides the following stages:

This method is designed to evaluate the coking propensity of synthetic ester-based aviation lubricants under single phase flow conditions found in certain parts of gas turbine engines, for instance in bearing feed tubes. This method is applicable to lubricants with a coking propensity, as determined by this method, falling in the range 0.01 to 3.00 mg.
