You're probably not getting answers, because your question is too broad and unspecific. I'll take a stab at one explanation, hoping it's what you need.
If you're talking about putting oil in your car, the oil is used to lubricate the engine while it's running, as well as cooling it by carrying the heat away. It creates a very thin film between the moving parts, which prevents friction (waste of energy/heat) and engine damage (metal rubbing against metal).
