In this paper, a lot of ferrographic experiments have been made by means of
rotary ferrograph and ferroscope. The oil sample of the experiments has be
en collected from slip diesel engines. The data of the experiments has been
analyzed based on grey relative analysis and relative order. The result of
grey relative analysis shows that the effect of the dilution ratio of the
oil sample is the most key factor, in which the volume and the dilution rat
io of the oil sample, and the effect of the rotation speed of the magnetic
disc on the deposition state of wear particles are investigated. This concl
usion is in accordance with the orthogonal experiment based on the same oil
sample. It provides a new practical method for ferrographic experimental a
nalysis.
