Thanks Tomasso. The video is very helpful!
Tomasso Dec 21, 2021:
cosi detto Dry Sump e multipli pompa d'olio vedere https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/dry-sump-oiling-how-it-wo... Another benefit of dry sump oil systems is a reduction in friction inside the engine. When an engine's crankshaft is spinning, it will ****whip the engine's oil ***up into the crankcase and form a fog of oil. This is denser than air alone and can cause a loss in power and efficiency. Many dry sump systems are designed to keep the inside of the crankcase at a vacuum, dramatically reducing resistance.

So there you go, thanks to Steph now you can watch a Ferrari or an air-cooled Porsche 911 drive by and admire more than just its looks or sound; you'll know that it's got a super cool oiling system too and that makes you a nerd, like me.

Trockensumpfschmierung

Schema Trockensumpf­schmierung: 1. Ölsumpf, 2. Saugpumpe, 3. Ölreservoir, 4. Druckpumpe, 5. Druckleitung, 6. Entlüftung in Kurbelgehäuse, 7. Zylinderkopf
Die Trockensumpfschmierung wird bei Viertaktmotoren angewendet; ähnlich wie bei der Frischölschmierung wird hier das Schmiermittel in einem separaten Behälter (Öltank) mitgeführt und durch eine Druckpumpe (ers

aeration or foaming

Panschen:
"Zu viel Öl: Bei einem stark überhöhten Füllstand
kann die Kurbelwelle in den Ölstand eintauchen
(„Panschen“) und große Mengen an Ölnebel im
Kurbelgehäuse verursachen, die über die Gehäusebelüftung
in den Brennraum gelangen.
Die Folgen sind eine geringere Leistung, eine
unsaubere Verbrennung und hohe Emissionen.
Im ungünstigsten Fall können Dieselmotoren
unkontrolliert hochdrehen, da der Ölnebel dann
als Kraftstoff fungiert, ohne dass das Gaspedal
betätigt wird."

aeration/foaming:
"Foaming in oil is mainly due to the accumulation of small air bubbles at the surface of the lubricant. It is caused by excessive agitation, inadequate levels of lubricating oil, air leaks/ingress, contamination or cavitation. Foaming is an undesired phenomenon in engines, hydraulics, turbines and cooling systems."
https://mfame.guru/watch-out-foaming-in-lubricating-oils/

"A light, yellow foam on your dipstick, particularly in cold weather, could indicate aeration in your oil pan -- typically a result of overfilling the engine with oil. Spinning crankshaft counterweights work as a very efficient blender, quickly whipping air and oil into a meringue-like foam."
https://itstillruns.com/mean-oil-car-white-foamy-12162244.ht...

"The foaming is caused by the crankshaft dipping into the oil pool. The dipstick max oil level is well below the crankshaft. Think eggbeater. "

contamination

It can be spelt with or without a T.

agree Kim Metzger : Also adulteration
19 mins
Yes. Thanks.
disagree thefastshow : Panschen here does not seem to refer to the adulteration of motor oil. Note the source: "das Pantschen IM Getrieberöl" Also contamination is only one factor leading to foaming of the oil - Hence foaming would be more adequate in this context.

neutral Cilian O'Tuama : The "im" sure does suggest this CL4 answer is off.

the sloshing

When the oil sloshes around it can inhibit smooth flow and functioning.
Peer comment(s):

disagree Kim Metzger : Where did you find "sloshing" for panschen? / I think you mean "planschen".
2 mins
deepl, also splashing on linguee but I think sloshing makes more sense.
neutral Cilian O'Tuama : Kim asks a legitimate question. Any more input? // So where?
