Explain the significance of the flash point and fire point of an oil.


Solution-:

The flash points and fire points are used to indicate the fire hazards of petroleum product and evaporation losses under high temperature operation. Knowledge of flash and fire points in lubricating oil aids in-precautionary measures against fire hazards. A good lubricant should have flash point at least above the temperature at which it is to be used.
