Ideal characteristics of lubricant and test used to measure each characteristic are discussed; tests covering viscosity, carbonization, cold test, specific gravity, oiliness, and flash point; selection of suitable lubricant; oil pumps; application of lubricant to Bristol Jupiter VIII, Rolls Royce F, Napier Lion, and A. D.C. Hermes engines. Abstract of paper presented before Roy. Aeronautical Soc. ((Aeronautical Eng. Supp.) (including discussion)
