A method comprises inserting the fuel rod (4) through the spacer grids (14) aligned along an assembling axis (A) with passing the fuel rod (4) through a lubrication chamber (30) aligned with the spacer grids (14) such that the lubrication chamber (30) is passed through by the fuel rod (4) before the insertion of the fuel rod (4) through one of the spacer grids (14), and circulating a lubrication fluid containing a gas and a lubricant in gaseous phase and/or mist form in the lubrication chamber (30). The lubrication fluid is injected in the lubrication chamber (30) at a temperature strictly higher than ambient temperature, such that lubricant deposits or condensates in liquid phase with forming a lubricant film on an external surface of the fuel rod (4) that is being inserted through said one of the spacer grids (14).

A method of lubricating a fluid production pump may include mixing a polarized lubricant with water to produce a diluted lubricant. The method may additionally include creating a flowpath within the fluid production pump. An initial volume of the diluted lubricant may be circulated within the flowpath to allow the diluted lubricant to react with components of the fluid production pump and form a protective barrier on the components of the fluid production pump. The method may further comprise repeatedly introducing a periodic volume of diluted lubricant into the fluid production pump according to a predefined lubrication schedule.

An implement system for a machine includes a boom housing a drive mechanism for a cutting implement, and having a plurality of oil outlet ports formed therein. A control mechanism is configured to receive data indicative of an expected change in location of the outlet ports relative to an oil fill line within the boom, and vary a pattern of incoming oil flow to limit entrainment of air in the oil.

A method and a device for induced formation of solid lubricant comprises providing (S10) of an article (10) to be processed. The article is exposed (S20) to a process fluid (34) comprising a solvent. impact media (20) and additives of solid-lubricant precursor substances. The solvent is a low-volatile high-flash solvent. The impact media are non-abrasive hard particles. The additives of solid-lubricant precursor substances are surface-reactive compounds serving as carriers of at least one of S, P, B and of at least one refractory metal. A velocity difference between surfaces (12) of the article and the impact media is created (S30). This causes impacts between the impact media and the article. Solid lubricant substances are formed (S40) on the surfaces by chemical reactions. The chemical reactions comprise the solid-lubricant precursor substances and are induced by the energy of the impacts. The chemical reactions take place at the surfaces

A component with a coating, wherein the component is a part of a wind turbine, the component is in contact with a lubricant and the lubricant comprises atomic hydrogen, is provided. The coating at least partly covers a surface of the component. The coating reduces diffusion of the atomic hydrogen into the component by a means of inducing a recombination of the atomic hydrogen to hydrogen gas. A method of reducing diffusion of atomic hydrogen into a component of a wind turbine by using such a coating is also provided.
