Instead, crankcase pressure forced oil mist up the short pushrod tunnels to the rocker covers, where two'crow's feet'allowed mist to condense and drip onto the rocker gear.

However, both oil mist and oil spray applications can take credit for lower frictional losses and both should be taken into account while performing cost justification analyses.
23.
The estimated number of electric motors on pure oil mist exceeds 26, 000; several of these at a Texas Gulf Coast petrochemical facility have been in flawless service since 1978.

Oil mist is drawn into the unit and impacts on the vanes at high velocity and specially designed synthetic pads assist the collection process and filter out stray solid particles.
25.
For shipboard engine rooms where gearboxes generate an oil mist, two-stage ESP's are used to clean the air, improving the operating environment and preventing buildup of flammable oil fog accumulations.
26.
The oil mist, actually a ratio of one volume of oil suspended or carried in 200, 000 volumes of clean, dry air, moves in a piping system ( header ).
27.
A supplementary air supply controlled by a foot pedal operated at will by the driver provides an oil mist from inside the engine's crankcase to lubricate the tops of the valve sleeves.
28.
The extra fuel causes the engine revolutions to increase, causing still more oil mist to be forced out of the crankcase and into the engine, and a positive feedback loop is created.
29.
At standstill, or while on standby, pump and driver bearings are preserved by the surrounding oil mist, which exists in the bearing housing space at a pressure just barely higher than ambient.
30.
Not only was this more pleasant for the car occupants it also meant that oil mist was not released into the air or onto the road in the case of draft tube ventilation systems.
