  2. Viscosity index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_index

    Viscosity index. The viscosity index (VI) is an arbitrary, unit-less measure of a fluid's change in viscosity relative to temperature change. It is mostly used to characterize the viscosity-temperature behavior of lubricating oils. The lower the VI, the more the viscosity is affected by changes in temperature.

  3. List of viscosities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_viscosities

    List of viscosities. Dynamic viscosity is a material property which describes the resistance of a fluid to shearing flows. It corresponds roughly to the intuitive notion of a fluid's 'thickness'. For instance, honey has a much higher viscosity than water. Viscosity is measured using a viscometer. Measured values span several orders of magnitude.

  4. SAE J300 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAE_J300

    SAE J300. SAE J300 is a standard that defines the viscometric properties of mono- and multigrade engine oils, maintained by SAE International. [1] Key parameters for engine oil viscometrics are the oil's kinematic viscosity, its high temperature-high shear viscosity measured by the tapered bearing simulator, and low temperature properties ...

  5. Viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity

    Extensional viscosity can be measured with various rheometers that apply extensional stress. Volume viscosity can be measured with an acoustic rheometer. Apparent viscosity is a calculation derived from tests performed on drilling fluid used in oil or gas well development. These calculations and tests help engineers develop and maintain the ...

  6. Motor oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_oil

    Motor oil is a lubricant used in internal combustion engines, which power cars, motorcycles, lawnmowers, engine-generators, and many other machines. In engines, there are parts which move against each other, and the friction between the parts wastes otherwise useful power by converting kinetic energy into heat.

  7. Viscosity models for mixtures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viscosity_models_for_mixtures

    Viscosity models for mixtures. The shear viscosity (or viscosity, in short) of a fluid is a material property that describes the friction between internal neighboring fluid surfaces (or sheets) flowing with different fluid velocities. This friction is the effect of (linear) momentum exchange caused by molecules with sufficient energy to move ...

  8. Saybolt universal viscosity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saybolt_universal_viscosity

    Saybolt universal viscosity (SUV), and the related Saybolt FUROL viscosity (SFV), are specific standardised tests producing measures of kinematic viscosity. FUROL is an acronym for fuel and road oil. [1] Saybolt universal viscosity is specified by the ASTM D2161. Both tests are considered obsolete to other measures of kinematic viscosity, but ...

  9. Naphthenic oil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naphthenic_oil

    If the viscosity, density, relative density (specific gravity) and refractive index [7] for a mineral oil is determined, the viscosity-gravity constant (VGC) and refractivity intercept (ri) can be calculated. Using the given values, the percent carbons (%CA, %CN, %CP) can be derived from a correlation chart, the ASTM D2140 method. [8]
