Feasibility of a Single Common Powertrain Lubricant: Hydraulic System Investigations at Low Temperatures
This project was conducted in support of the feasibility study for the U.S. Army Single Common Powertrain Lubricant (SCPL). U.S. Army vehicles were surveyed to determine the types of hydraulic system pumps that are used. The hydraulic system from a representative vehicle (6K) Rough Terrain Fork Lift...
