Abstract

In the petroleum industry the standard temperatures of test are being changed from the traditional 100 and 210°F to 40 and 100°C. Graphs and tables are given which allow for easy, accurate calculation of kinematic viscosity at the new test temperatures from data at the former test temperatures.

Keywords:
viscosity index, viscosity-temperature equations, petroleum products, kinematic viscosity
