There are a couple possibilities for foam in a gearbox. Gear oil is created with an anti-foaming additive in it, so if the fluid starts to break down because of normal wear, then it will start to foam. The solution is easy. Just change the fluid. The second option is that it got water in it, and the water will cause a foam. Also, just change the fluid.

What is drilling of oil called?

The drilling of oil is commonly referred to as "oil drilling" or "oil exploration." This process involves creating boreholes in the earth's surface to extract crude oil from underground reservoirs. Techniques such as rotary drilling and directional drilling are often employed to reach these oil deposits efficiently. The extracted oil is then processed and refined for various uses.


Is it possible for oil to get into rain?

no its phisicly impossible. rain is when water from lakes rivers ponds the ocean etc. evaporate into the sky and become clouds. if oil is in water and the water evaporates oil will rain. wrong. oil cannot evaporate. only water. if your talking about the oil spill from bp hope this helps.! (oh and if you really hate the spill i suggest stop buying from bp your supporting them)


What is made out of polystyrene?

Ordinary CD jewel cases.Expanded Polystyrene (EPS) Foam Products From Foam Cups To Foam Coolers To Houses And Highways!Expanded Polystyrene is the core material used for making thousands of different products, everything from foam coolers like we make at LoBoy EPS Foam Coolers in Fort Walton Beach, Florida, to floating boat docks, to custom home construction, highway and bridge construction, cups and party-ware, cd cases and protective packaging, plus EPS foam is very popular in Cold Chain Shipping (using eps foam shipping coolers to ship food across long distances to keep the food (or medicine) cold during transit). EPS foam is even used for furniture, home and business decor (there are some really beautiful architectural examples to be found in web searches).The reason for this is that it is an environmentally friendly, moldable plastic derived from crude oil. Of course, it's only environmentally friendly (as with anything) when it is not manufactured in combination with non-friendly stuff such as when a manufacturer ruins its recyclability by coating it with painted logos that are toxic. Non-toxic paints are best, but even that can interfere with practical recycling because you take a white material and mix in paint and when it's recycled you get a gnarly rainbow that you have to try to reuse. Better to use stamping directly into the EPS foam or just use adhesive labels. That way, the foam is completely reusable.At the LoBoy Foam Cooler company, we always recommend that people stop throwing away EPS foam products and start setting it aside until they have enough to take to be recycled. It's better for the planet (why make trash when you can convert trash to treasure?) and it helps create jobs.


What is the reasons of Reciprocating compressors failure?

their are many reasons a compressor can fail (refrigeration) 1 low oil level due to low suction pressures or oil wash out due to liquid flooding back to the compressor 2 wrong supper heat setting on tx valve system3 wrong size compressor for the load 4 under or over voltage5bad starting or running cap or start relay and the list goes on....
