Viscosity lineararity ?

[Eddie]

We have data points at the pour point, 40C and 100C. Do we have information or is it availiable for temperatures inbetween and beyond 100C.? I'm wondering about the warmup phase and at say 125C for Synthetcs vs Dino oils. Thanks Ed

I think you can use a viscosity calculator to calculate the inbetween values...I know some guys have done this and posted the results here on BITOG. Try doing some searches on viscosity calculator and you'll probably turn up the link.

IIRC, it thins exponentially.

Exponentially? maybe within a selected tempeture range but, not at low temps and very high temps.
